Sex And The City (Again)
Here’s a not-so-timely tip for those of you who can’t abide the shrill harpies who infest Sex And The City, but who are also not strong-willed enough to look away from the carnage. Whenever whatsername rambles endlessly about her tiresome on-off relationship with ‘Mr Big’, try not to think of him as the dopey, cigar-smoking lunk that the show proffers. Instead, visualise Mr Big (the late 80s/early 90s superband responsible for the smash hit single To Be With You)in the role. This simple tactic instantly renders the show vastly more enjoyable. With a better soundtrack to boot.
Note: This tactic also works on other shows. For example, rather than listen to the inanities of Tribal Council on Survivor, I often keep myself infinitely more entertained by imagining them all singing an a capella version of Eye Of The Tiger.
