tylerminkis5 Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 Notice the 2nd to last paragraph... LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - Cher, whose "Sonny and Cher Show" once dominated America's televisions, and who has in recent years been an NBC favorite between farewell specials and "Will & Grace" guest spots, says she would never consider doing a sitcom or variety show for the networks again, and calls today's shows "mean and stupid." Appearing in the upcoming Farrelly Brothers comedy "Stuck on You" with Matt Damon and Greg Kinnear, Cher plays herself as an Oscar-winning movie actress who does a TV show for FOX called "Honey and the Beas." "If I ever would do TV again it would have to be for cable, HBO or Showtime," Cher says. "I don't like TV, I don't watch it. I like cable TV." While she knows there must be good sitcoms out there, Cher says she hasn't found any. When she is home, she flips to The Movie Channel, Turner Movie Classics, C-SPAN, the History Channel and the Learning Channel as well as HBO and Showtime. "I watch movies on TV, that's what I do, except for American Movie Classics, they're so out of touch," she disses, referring to AMC's move from showing classic films to becoming a broader target of TV for people who love movies. And, as far as the reality fad goes, that's even worse. "I don't want to see some a**hole eat worms," Cher says. http://tv.zap2it.com/tveditorial/tve_main/1,1002,271|84989|1|,00.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 I still think Cher is a tad kooky, but I agree with most of what is listed here as having been said by her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeker427 Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 I also liked Cher's choice of channels and thought her comments were very well said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stlgal38 Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 It's always hard for me to imagine celebrities kicked back with a remote - they're just alwyas so public.. But it's always cool to hear what they like to do in their 'down time'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cinemetal Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 And an underrated actress to boot. The Oscar notwithstanding, her general kookiness, tabloid romances and wardrobe abominations have detracted far too much attention from the excellent work she offered in Silkwood, Mask, Suspect and Mermaids.
