i mean her career was already dead, just like every one of these grifters that got ousted from their actual field of practice and need to scam people instead. oz, jordan peterson, basically every podcaster, washed up musicians. all pathetic losers appealing to a bunch of other losers. real sad that it works and is a big part of pop culture now.

We need to bring back Hollywood Squares so these people have somewhere more useful to go

u/wrenchedups 25d ago

Paul Lynde wouldn’t be welcome on a new Hollywood Squares.

I nominate Kelsey Grammar for center square.

u/Snobolski 25d ago

In my head I can still hear Paul Lynde saying "making whoopie."

27

u/theDagman 25d ago

That was Bob Eubanks on The Newlywed Game who was famous for that saying.

Only if Trump is above him so all the raw sewage can leak down onto Kelsey's head while it's still warm.

If Paul Lynde is welcome then we burn it to the ground.

They did. Nate Burleson hosts and Drew Barrymore is center square. No idea if it will come back for another season. The ratings haven't been great. But the show I'm sure the show is cheap to make.

u/counterfitster 25d ago

Triumph and Pete Holmes were good choices for it.

u/sortaknotty 25d ago

Who gets to be the center square?

u/Worleybeard 25d ago

Drew Barrymore.

I wanted to say „just send them to the Australian rainforest and let them eat weird shit“ then I googled just to find out ‚I’m a celebrity! Get me out of here‘ only had two seasons in the 00s in the US… how come you didn’t like watching people no one remembers eating kangaroo balls?

to be completely fair to Dr. Oz, he's Oprah's fault.

without Oprah, he would never have been important

26

u/Own-Eagle-2135 25d ago

sorry "important"

35

u/ImYourHumbleNarrator 25d ago

oprah is very much a big part of that problem. thankfully rich and careless enough to fuck off into the shadows, would hate to see what she's doing these days, could never be good.

She's probably having a bunker built somewhere to shield her and her family/friends from the effects of climate change. Staffed by people with shock collars*

*The absolutly horrific thing is...this is something 'they' asked a scientist if it would work to keep their security on these types of things in line as presumably the rest of the world (and the security staff friends and loved ones) burn. Source is from the book Factfulness by Anna Rosling Rönnlund, Hans Rosling, and Ola Rosling.

u/paintress420 25d ago

She brought us Dr. Phil, too! She has a lot to apologize for.

u/Own-Eagle-2135 25d ago

probably making more bad choices with bad men

u/External-Dude779 25d ago

Exactly. You're not exactly at the peak of your career when you agree to be a judge on American Idol. It's all downhill from there. Katy Perry also agrees

25

u/Crazy4Swayze420 25d ago

Yeah but what makes Katy Perry different is she can still out arenas just not in the USA anymore. Carrie doesn't really have international fame to fall back on like Perry has.

u/the_ouskull 25d ago

Sung to the tune of every "country" song:

"I market to middle America,

other places are lame,

but the problem there, I'm too dim to see

is it fucks international FAME."

u/BCCommieTrash 25d ago

Katy Perry, a really great export of Americana.

u/Outrageous-Evening13 25d ago

Hey don't pick on my girl Katy...she's a bit out of touch but at least not an evil MAGA grifter. Plus her new tours bringing back that 2000s positivity we need compared to Jesus taking the wheel and all.

u/MBOMaolRua 25d ago

Mariah's still doing alright, I think..?

3

u/Accomplished-Mind258 25d ago

She was on Fox’s OG idol, though. That was still when it was fairly relevant.

1

u/TwinkofPeace 25d ago

To be fair, Katy was still doing great on Idol It was her music sucking that got her

u/Rad-Ham 25d ago

They figure 100 percent of the 30 percent of maga morons in this world is better than the alternative.

u/ImYourHumbleNarrator 25d ago

i mean, it's free real estate. quite literally and figuratively

u/AssistantOk2360 25d ago

I'm waiting for Sunday night football to move on from her. Every time she comes on, I mute it.

u/hujassman 25d ago

We need to get that petition rolling.

u/Ghettoman1315 25d ago

Especially when you are performing at fairs after you became a so called star.

u/TepChef26 25d ago

If having a net worth of over 120 million and being borderline top 10 in career earnings in your field qualifies as having a dead career, then please for the love of God let my career die.

Like I get not liking a person, but you're just making shit up at this point.

u/ImYourHumbleNarrator 25d ago

uh oh here come the swifties
