I can do that!!

[Patrick]

so last night i found myself watching top design on bravo....  well needless to say the show is kind of a train wreck.  i never really watched it before, and somehow thought that the people on it would have some kind of talent.  (this is after watching other bravo shows like top chef and the first season of project runway.)  boy was i wrong.  anyway, so here it is.  top design, i could do that.  im not saying i would win, but finish top 3, without a doubt.

what makes you say i can do that?



(yeah i know Tom asked it first.)

in regards to bravo shows: the haircutting one=not impressed.


psychologists...i can do that.

Playing bass on "Runnin' With the Devil": I can do that!

I agree wholeheartedly with the "Top Design" thing; I knew that show would be awful but I was shocked at how it abysmal it was from the first episode. I could also do the following:

1. Host any talk radio show
2. Be the mayor of a small Alaskan town
3. Offer chiropractic advice

Totally agreed katers, except for the one about hosting any talk radio show. If I tried to do the Best Show, it might not be that funny. If I were to take the spot of say, Bill O'Reilly or Ed Schultz, politics aside, I'd kill. Or Larry King. The others on the list, no problem.

Also:
1. Interior design -- I could probably do that, but it wouldn't make for good television
2. Hosting America's funniest home videos
3. Game show host -- that would be a riot.
4. Guest hosting "Learn to Read with Wally Amos" on Channel 13, WNET
5. Being a TV weatherman
6. Reading a teleprompter

Things I know I can't do:

1. Stand-up comedy. I could do it, but I might bomb
2. Rapping
3. Guest hosting for Cesar Millan on "Dog Whisperer"

Agreed on The Best Show, Fido...When I refer to talk radio, I mean Air America, Rush Limbaugh, etc. I put The Best Show in a different stratosphere.

[njkaters]

Fido, I would add on "being a sports anchor" to your weatherman suggestion (which was spot on). I think I could do the back half of any city's 10 o'clock news.

Howard Stern used to make wild claims about what he could do all the time.  The best was when he actually got tap shoes and danced on the air, "proving" that it took no talent.

in my head i can do the Best Show.

I could be head coach of a mediocre NFL team. I wouldn't be a good coach, but even though I've never played a down of organized football in my life I know enough from watching hundreds of coaches that don't have a mind of their own run the same plays for years. I could do that.

[yesno]

I think I could manage a baseball team.

[Fido]

Njkaters, I actually thought of being a sportscaster too. I bet I could do that, but I wouldn't want to talk about anything other than baseball, and occasionally NFL football, so it would bore me to tears. I bet I could be a TV reporter, like Penny Crone or Ti-Hua Chang. I don't think it would necessarily be that easy, just that I bet I could do it.

I could run a presidential campaign.  Not because I'm smart, but because these folks have been using the same playbook for decades.

Write for Jay Leno.

If I was given the tools and the budget I could produce mediocre pop albums and maybe even get lucky enough to make a good one.
