Alright, alright, lemme tell ya ’bout them TV folks, the ones all the young’uns are gabbing about. They call ’em the hottest TV show characters, I reckon. Don’t know much about this “hottest” business, but I see ’em on the telly when the grandkids are over. Always makin’ a fuss, they are.
First off, there’s this fella, always wearin’ fancy clothes. Coats and such, like he’s goin’ to a funeral every day. The womenfolk, they seem to like it. Says he’s got “style.” Humph, back in my day, style was keepin’ your britches patched and your boots clean. But this fella, he’s got this cape thing, swirls around like a bat outta hell. Guess that’s what makes him one of them hottest ones. Makes no sense to me, but what do I know?
Then there’s this lady on that talk show. Always yappin’ ‘bout somethin’ or other. My granddaughter, she loves that show. Says that lady is real “bold”. Bold? I call it loud! But I guess that’s what gets you on TV these days. This lady, she’s always dressed up too, fancy dresses and such. Not like the clothes we wear around here, that’s for sure. She’s got that hottest TV show character thing goin’ on too, apparently. They say her show is ending soon. Good riddance, I say. Too much talkin’, not enough workin’.
- One thing I noticed about these hottest TV show characters, they always got somethin’ to say. Can’t just sit quiet and enjoy a cup of tea, can they? Always gotta be arguin’ or cryin’ or laughin’ like hyenas. Makes my head spin, it does.
- And the clothes! Lordy, the clothes. Sparkly things, tight things, things that don’t look like they’d keep you warm on a cold night. Back in my day, clothes were for keepin’ you covered and comfortable. Now they’re for showin’ off, I guess. That’s how you get to be a hottest character I reckon, by dressin’ like a fool.
- They’re always in some kinda trouble, too. Fightin’ with their neighbors, runnin’ from the law, cheatin’ on their husbands or wives. Can’t they just settle down and raise some chickens or somethin’? But no, they gotta be dramatic. That’s what makes ’em hottest, I s’pose. More drama than a hen house with a fox in it.
I tell ya, these TV shows, they ain’t nothin’ like real life. Folks on TV, they got it easy. They got fancy houses and fancy cars and fancy clothes. They don’t gotta worry about where their next meal is comin’ from or how they’re gonna pay the bills. They just gotta worry about lookin’ good and sayin’ their lines. And bein’ the hottest, whatever that means.
But the young’uns, they eat it up. They sit there with their eyes glued to the screen, dreamin’ of bein’ like them hottest TV show characters. They don’t know how good they got it, with their fancy phones and their fast food and their clothes that ain’t got a single patch on ‘em. They think that life on TV is the real deal. They don’t know nothin’ about hard work and real problems.
Hottest TV show characters? I call ’em a bunch of silly geese. But hey, what do I know? I’m just an old woman who prefers a good book and a cup of tea to all that TV nonsense. But if you wanna know who’s “hot” on TV these days, just ask the young’uns. They know all about it. They’ll tell ya about the fellas with the capes and the ladies with the loud mouths and all the rest of them. And they’ll tell ya how they are the hottest characters around. Just don’t ask me to make sense of it all. ‘Cause I ain’t got a clue.
Anyways, that’s my two cents on them hottest TV show characters. They’re loud, they’re fancy, and they’re always in trouble. Not my cup of tea, but to each their own, I guess. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed the chickens. That’s some real work, somethin’ these TV folks wouldn’t know nothin’ about.
And one last thing. This whole “hottest” thing… it’s just plain silly. Back in my day, “hot” meant you had a fever. Now it means you’re wearin’ a silly cape and yappin’ on TV. The world’s gone crazy, I tell ya. Just plain crazy.
