An Awful Television Show

Supper Club with Tom Bergeron (the guy on the left is Tom)

I just stumbled upon this TV show last night on Planet Green a network dedicated to the environment.  Here’s how their web site describes the program:

Introducing Supper Club

Each week, Supper Club lets viewers be a fly on the wall at a Hollywood dinner party, as Dancing with the Stars’ Tom Bergeron hosts a fabulous evening alongside a celebrity chef who cooks up a green meal, while four special celebrity guests break bread and discuss the latest news and events in the green movement.

I watched about 10 minutes of it and it was almost unbearable.  Here’s a rough idea of the scintillating conversation during the bit I watched.  The guests with Tom Bergeron were Ricky Schroder, you know, from Silver Spoons; Larry Elder, a talk radio host; Dr. Heidi Cullen from the Weather Channel; and Bruno Tonioli a judge on Dancing with the Stars. 

Bruno:  Well, humans are carnivores.
Ricky:  Actually we’re omnivores.  Humans are omnivores.
Tom :  Omnivores?  What’s that?

I’m sure I’ll watch Supper Club with Tom Bergeron again.  The unintended comedy was delicious.

Thanks for listening,
Bill
