Review of Dirt

Dirt (2007–2008)
4/10
Hmmmm, It was OK
3 January 2007
I agree; those endless promos made me so curious that I couldn't wait to see this thing already! I think in this day and age of video voyeurism, blackberries, cell phones, celebrity obsession...this show was inevitable.

I agree with whoever said that Cox is pretty much miscast. I think she gives it all she's got, but she's no Ari Gold and needs to be. In the red dress with the callous attitude bribing this guy to sell his soul for publicity she's obviously the embodiment of the devil.

I liked her schizophrenic paparazzi. I think he was a very interesting, but sad character.

What I think is wrong with this show is an identity crisis. What is it saying? Spying is bad? Gossip is bad? Gossip is good, inevitable? We are bad for demanding it? Society has gone bad? Is she Evil or is she just telling it like it is? I think the show has some good ideas and potential, but unless it makes some adjustments and gets a direction I think it will just be very boring. I can't even imagine where they'd go after that first episode.
