<p><a href="http://www.couchtuber.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/red_carpet.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-575" style="margin: 5px; float: left;" title="red_carpet" src="http://www.couchtuber.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/red_carpet.jpg" alt="" width="144" height="170" /></a>There is something I just don&#8217;t get.  We&#8217;re all TV lovers here.  Maybe you like <strong>CSI</strong> and I like<strong> House</strong>, but we all share an appreciation for the small screen.  If we didn&#8217;t we wouldn&#8217;t be here at Couch Tuber, celebrating our Couch Tuber-ness.</p>
<p>If you love TV, you probably love the movies, too.  I mean, nobody watches the network shows but turns away in horror when TBS runs their movie o&#8217; the month for the 13th time.  Movies and TV, they go together.  They&#8217;re made for each other (quite literally in some cases).</p>
<p>So, Oscar Night on TV makes sense.  I don&#8217;t care about the rich, pampered Hollywood elitists patting themselves on the back, but I can see why some people do.  Just like I may not see the appeal of <strong>30 Rock</strong>, but I never miss <strong>Community</strong>.  Po-TAY-to, Po-TAH-to.  We&#8217;re all in this together.</p>
<p>I even can accept the reality TV craze.  It&#8217;s not my thing, but I get that some people might get a visceral thrill from peeking into the life of people whose lifestyles are foreign to them.  If you&#8217;re into watching stupid drunks acting like idiots, why go down to the local bar when you can stay at home and watch Jersey Shore?  To each their own.</p>
<p>But can someone explain to me the appeal of the Red Carpet session before the Oscars?  I just don&#8217;t get it.  It&#8217;s just people getting out of their cars and walking inside.  What&#8217;s the appeal?  If you want your celebrity fix, wouldn&#8217;t it be more interesting to see the celebs partying it up inside?  Surely what&#8217;s happening inside is more interesting.  That&#8217;s why the stars are going inside.  They&#8217;re just passing through the red carpet area to get from their car to the party.</p>
<p>Can one of my fellow Tubers explain this to me?  Why do you care?  Do you care?  Surely there are a lot of viewers who are interested, or else they&#8217;d stop showing this tedium.  I just don&#8217;t get the whole red carpet thing.  I&#8217;m flipping over to a rerun of <strong>Star Trek</strong>.</p>
