Abusing the Privileged
I gave it another shot. I watched Privileged again this week. But I’m still not impressed. I can’t figure it out. It’s definitely not funny. At all. It looks like it’s gonna be funny when you see the commercials, but that’s just cause they show you people saying funny lines. But when you see the show the funny lines aren’t all that funny.
But even beyond all that, I hate the people. Every single one of them, pretty much. They are nearly all so annoying, I want to slap them. The only character that is even the least little bit sympathetic is Charlie (Michael Cassidy).
The main character, Megan Smith (Joanna Garcia), is just super annoyingly chipper. And not in a good way. The two rich sisters, Sage (Ashley Newbrough) and Rose (Lucy Hale), are not believable. Sage is a complete and utter brat who clearly didn’t get enough spankings as a child. Lucy is just a big baby.
The story line is apparently going to be the same thing every week. Sage and Rose get into some trouble because Megan is clearly not watching them closely enough (she’s way too busy dealing with her own issues to pay attention to them) and then Megan has to get them out of it, but she still ends up getting in trouble with their grandmother cause she’s not doing what she was hired to do.
That almost didn’t make sense. But I know what I mean.
Bottom line, I don’t really think I’m gonna be watching again next week. I just hate them all so much, it makes my blood pressure go up and I really don’t need that.
