The other night I had the chance to kick back and watch some TV. I was watching the news and just channel surfing when I came across a show I couldn’t flip past. It’s called VIP. This is the STUPIDEST SHOW I HAVE EVER SEEN… Yet I couldn’t change the channel. This show is an action adventure type docudrama about a bodyguard agency… the writing is the worst out there and the acting is actually worse than the writing… Yet I watched. I can’t explain it… it’s SO BAD, it’s kinda funny. The main characters are a trio of hotties lead by Pamela Anderson (Yeah – that Pamela) who has a terrific “please abuse me” look… her talent stops there – abruptly. The other female leads are a little better acting wise and no less easy on the eyes… Its just when they start saying lines and trying to emote – well, just turn the sound down and you’ll get by fine. To bring this under the umbrella of a firearms discussion – I’ll talk about firearms now…
Lets see the super buff little brunette girl packed two desert eagles with laser sights mounted on top of the barrel to make sure the iron sights were obstructed as much as possible.
The Amazonian redhead (my favorite one
) in one scene pulled an HK PDW out of nowhere and began engaging another group of shotgun armed bodyguards at close range – no more than 15 feet max.
Pamela started out with a scoped G3 rifle (that she initially chose because as she explained it; it went with her underwear) and during the intense firefight, exclaimed “this is too heavy” and discarded it. Then out of the blue like ROGER RABBIT, pulled out a pair of .380 Sigmas. Oh yeah – much better. Well – the little Sigmas did provide unobstructed view of Pamela’s abundant cleavage, which from what I could tell is the whole point of the show. There were a bunch of spendy and exotic guns all over the show – most of which only served as wardrobe for the actresses. As the story goes and luck would have it, absolutely no injuries where inflicted upon anyone dispite at least 500 rounds of various calibers flying all over between about 7 combatants in the space of a Motel-6 bathroom.
Oh – there are a couple guys in the show too.
Like I said before – the show totally sucks. But next time I am up late watching TV – dang – I’ll have to check the listings.

You might laugh in the face of FEAR... but unless your armed, its a nervous, unconvincing, little laugh.
