Crowned: The Mother of All Pageants 12/12/2007

SERIES PREMIERE

(by Deb Porter-Jones)

I think this is the ultimate in catty pageant shows. Mother and daughter teams that compete for the crowns: it’s every bit as bitchy as you would expect from a houseful of prima donnas!

You’ve got your misfit team, Pamela and Felicia; short, ungainly and rather frumpy daughter and mom who look about as pageanty (is that a word?) as Bert and Ernie.

You’ve got your team with the rebellious daughter who’s clearly and handful and STILL going through the terrible twos. She got a tattoo against her mother’s wishes and insists that, at 16, she does not have to listen to anyone and can do what she wants. How cute is THAT? Not!

Moya and her daughter are here for more than just 15 minutes of fame. They need that $100,000 prize. What’s their story? Dad died years ago, they lost their house, and that money would go a long way towards putting their lives back together.

The Blonde Bombshells: Blonde mom-and-daughter team that claim to give the impression of being really dumb and blonde. But look out; they’re the smart bombshells, too.

The Cerebral Pair: Mom and daughter pair that appear very poised and classy. Mom is a PhD and daughter appears really poised beyond her 18 years.

Elimination Competition:

The instructions are clear. Choose a name for your “team” and play your position. If you’re a mom, play the role, decide on a themed outfit, and show who you are.

Hollis and Gena- Dream Girls team sang a song: a big hit with the judges.

Diamond Dolls- “Diamonds are sparkly and fun and we like bling.” Yes, they’re exactly as superficial as they appear. Luckily, the judges manage to pull out of them that Mom received a kidney transplant 2 years ago and her daughter took 2 years off from school to take care of her. They could use the money to finish the daughter’s schooling and pay mom’s hospital bills (Now, we care about them).

Tomboy Queens - are just that, tomboys. Mom’s hair is a train wreck. The advice to them is to think about their look.

Reigning A’s – They appear to be superficial, practiced, and confused.

There is only one team eliminated tonight – Reigning A’s. They were eliminated because they are quite phony acting, practiced in their speech and way too poised. I think they were a good choice and could have been tied with the Blonde Bombshells.
