Cribs

I am appalled by the fact that MTV even has a show like Cribs. It's like "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" but its aimed at musicians and their lavish homes. I get very annoyed at the fact that musicians will walk around the inside of their homes, saying things like, "This room is dedicated to all my SHOES!". I find it insulting. They are allowed to flaunt all their expensive and luxurious possessions to the general public. It's almost as if the musicians are saying "Look at what I have and you'll never afford it!" MTV should be ashamed of themselves for garbage like this. It's crap like this that makes me never want to watch a substandard network like MTV again....

I enjoy Cribs as do other members of my family, including my 4-year-old nephew. The "haters" look at it as celebrities flaunting their possessions and proclaiming "look at what I have and you'll never get." I'm sure there has been a celebrity or two featured in Cribs who watched Robin Leach back in the day and imagined themselves basking in that type of wealth. I guess if I had come up with an entertainment gimmick or been athletic, I could be a featured celebrity on the show. Since I'm not gifted in that way, I won't hate on the ones who are so fortunate. I just hope they are grateful for what they have amassed and remember their fans and to take charge of their own finances.

It's interesting and fun. Theres not much more to it than that. I don't see why people rate it so low and I find it hilarious when people whine that celebrities are flaunting wealth others will never have.

There is something neat about seeing inside your favorite peoples houses.

A depressing show to make people feel bad for what they don't have and for those that have it to become selfish, materialistic worshipers.

This by far could be the worse show ever because it shows rich people rubbing it in and it conditions people to think "if I don't have a big as house i'm nothing".

Verdict: I never cared about celebrities.

Cribs is another show on Music TV(aka MTV) that has nothing to do with music. Except sometimes they show you musician's homes. But that's ok because it is above average compared to the rest of MTV's shows. It's just a show that shows us the inside of celebrities homes.

Once they devoted a whole episode to Mariah Carrey's large penthouse. It was great but it made me realize Mariah is really crazy. But she's so rich her house makes her look sane almost. Her closet was the size of my room (maybe bigger). And she had a whole room devoted to her shoes.

Sometimes Cribs is quite entertaining. Sometimes the houses are so beautiful (like Mariah's). Sometimes the celebities houses are just scary (Marilyn Manson & Rob Zombie come to mind). But if you're interesting in the inside of the rich and famous's homes than you'll love Cribs.
