Well, I can't help putting my two-cents in about this show everyone's talking about. NYC Prep recently premiered on Bravo. It chronicles the horribly sheltered lives of six utterly naïve, disgustingly pretentious teenagers living on Manhattan's upper east and west side's and attending the most exclusive of private schools. I was forced to sit through the premiere and it makes me sick to my stomach that I now almost feel it an obligation to continue on with the show. I really thought I was going to hurl everytime some of these kids spoke. First of all, there is the exception. Her name is Taylor and she's the only one that attends public school. We get to watch her 'struggle' as she desperately tries to maintain her reputation amongst all of these multi-millionaires. There's Kelli who's completely generic, and Camille, who looks like an alien and claims she is 'obsessesed' with getting into Harvard, but then proceeds to admit that, "of course" she owns a fake I.D. Then there's Sebastian, who feels the need to flip his hair every sixteen seconds, which also happens to be the same number of girls he claims to 'hook-up' with on a weekend-ly basis. There's also Jesse, who there's really nothing to say about except for the fact that she's extremely unfortunate looking, and, not to be harsh, but basically the definition of fugly. It's sad because despite the amount of plastic surgery she will eventually get in the future, she probably won't be able to change this fact. Last, but certainly not least, my favorite, P.C. He's actually so perfect. First of all, he looks like a big chubby baby. Secondly, he mimicks the wardrobe of Chuck Bass. Thirdly, everything that comes out of his mouth. Some of my favorites: "On the upper east side, money flows like the wind." and "The recession is my bitch." Jesse also makes some notable quotes. She talks about how "messing with P.C. would be like social suicide", something I'd personally be honored to commit, and also claims that if you often wear clothing under $20.00 you are considered "downtown". It's just so glorious and I can't wait for all of these kids to get rejected from all the colleges they apply to because of this show.
