Catpaw - diary of an angry cat

A&E TV has finally put Dog the bounty hunter on hold. Finally!

The station, previously know as television that brought us interesting programs such as Tenko, thought provoking documentaries, original productions, has long slithered down the sewer of second rate, shock programming and rerun heaven.
A&E no longer stands for Arts and Entertainment TV, but Awful & Egregious. In the last few years, all originality has been sucked from its programming, to be replaced with such “reality” shows as:

Dog the Bounty Hunter - a self-righteous thug who thinks nothing of breaking foreign laws because “hey, I’m doing God’s work”

Growing Up Gotti - the noxious ode to criminal excess and horrid child rearing practices. Inflicting those wretched sons on the public should have been a criminal offense. And Gotti’s lionization of her father was sickening.

Sons of Hollywood - a lame attempt to employ the unemployed and talentless sons of Hollywood power

The Two Coreys - no comment needed on this other than Hollywood’s “lets employ the unemployable” scheme hard at work

The Rollergirls - oh what high entertainment this was.

The King of Cars - with episodes titled “We dooz it large” how could the public resist this

Dallas SWAT - no doubt the Arts portion of A&E’s licensing commitment

Caesars 24/7 - well, the gambling establishment does have the name of an historical figure in it, does that count?

Biography - information super lite with no substance

This is just a sampling of the sad programming decisions being made at the top levels of A&E. I was pleased to see the powers that be saw the writing on the wall and yanked Dog the Bounty Hunter after his nasty outburst, complete with the ‘n’ word, aimed at his own son’s black girlfriend. His over eager use of the ‘n’ and ‘b’ words made me want to track the bugger down and shove a thesaurus down his pathetic throat. What really annoyed me was the tepid “Oh I’m so sorry I didn’t mean it” apology.

Look pal - if you didn’t mean it, then don’t use the words. End of discussion.

I’m tired of listening to temper tantrum driven celebrities behaving in appalling fashions, insulting anyone in their way and then expecting all to be forgiven by saying the magic “If I’ve given offense” apology.

if? If? IF? Hell yes you offended us! You don’t need to be black to be completely repelled by your choice of words. EVERYONE should be offended. Your smarmy response doesn’t cut it with this cat. Learn to behave or keep your mouth shut. Dog defended the use of the ‘n’ word by saying he uses it all the time, its a habit. Well pal… any habit can be broken if you have the will power. And as a fully functioning adult, you should have understood a LONG time ago how hurtful the words you use are and taken the steps necessary to break yourself of the habit.

Apology not accepted.

Catpaw is pissed and is going to stay that way for a long time.

Stumble it!
