Ben From "The Buried Life" Sweats Megan Fox

Okay, so I pretty much watch every single show on MTV and come on, everyone's guiltiest pleasure is totally reality shows! I started tuning into "The Buried Life" when the first episode premiered and I really like the show. It's completely different from anything else out there and it actually goes beyond the phony, superficial reality show that usually airs on MTV. Not only do the four boys set out to achieve goals on their bucket list, but they also help a total stranger knock something off of their own bucket list. The question, "What do you want to do before you die?" is the main premise of this show and is something everyone has asked themselves at least once in their life. In the episode that aired Monday, February 1, the boys attempt to ask out the girl of their dreams. The four boys are able to sneak themselves into the Transformers 2 premiere to meet Megan Fox and potentially ask her out on a date. As Ben, the lead guy, sweats from nervousness and almost pees his pants as Megan approaches him, the other guys are either waiting in a bathroom stall for 3 hours or just pretending to be a celebrity. The four guys on the show are just flat out hysterical and make the show worth watching. Unfortunately for Ben, as he attempts to ask out Megan Fox, she's whisked away by her publicist but the boys still have hope that their goal will be reached at another time. At the end of the show, the boys help out an 11-year-old who's afraid of heights and take her on her first rollercoaster that she thoroughly enjoys. Although this show hasn't sparked too much gossip like MTV's "Jersey Shore" has (we'll talk about that masterpiece at another time), the show is still really good to me and something I will continue to watch and write about.

  1. Good post. You told me about a show I never heard of. I would continue reading your blog for TV news. Your voice is right on for this blog. I like the way you gave your opinion then told us something about the show to back it up.
    Three suggestions: First, be careful about subject/verb agreement. Second, tighten writing by eliminating unnecessary words. Third, avoid tepid statements like "the show is still really good to me," and reach for something more descriptive, such as, "Still this show is near the top of my TV bucket list."
