  • I wanna play football for the coach

    Lou Reed. Whatever.

    Yeah it’s good. Really good. Catch-up-on-DVD good. I love the tension Coach sets up in his family with his boyish impulsivity and male needs which seem somehow to take precedence over Tami’s aspirations. And the looks on the players’ faces that say more than any dialog when Coach tries to explain the TMU thing. And how he projects his doubt and betrayal onto the big booster dude before his speech. And the discomfort of the earnest young Christian man with the car full of women getting their groove on. Could the chickens get more assignments in advance ? They are educational and fun.

    Clearly “The Bachelor: Officer and a Gentleman” was conceived and broadcast in order to be deconstructed by H.H. I laughed without the benefit of caffeine.
