I know I’ve said this before, and rest assured - I’ll say it again: I loves me a good train wreck…

Last night was the debut of yet another singing competition on primetime network TV, “Celebrity Duets”.

Now, you know with a title like that, there’s a pretty good chance the Grammy committee won’t be standing by, preparing nominations for the next installment of their awards show. The committee of Ripley’s Believe It Or Not, maybe…

As train wrecks go, the show did not disappoint. Featuring big-name singers as the ringers, the warbling celebrities included a WWE wrestler, an Olympic medallist, and Cheech (without Chong). With their marquee partner, these celebrities ran through pop and country songs. Some you could even recognize.

Surprisingly, some of the combinations went fairly well. For example, when Lucy Lawless sang a duet with Smokey Robinson, barely any dogs arrived in response to the notes hit beyond human hearing range.

Will this be another big hit for producer Simon Cowell? Will I write here about something other than bad TV shows, and other total balderdash??

One never knows….
Chow for now!!
