Kirstie Alley’s Big Life

Kirstie Alley’s Big Life

Kirstie Alley’s reality show is too cooked for its own good. Instead of being a show that documents Kirstie sliming down, we actually get this thinly scripted reality show. Everything about this show seems too well prepared.

While there are aspects of Kirstie’s personality that are enduring, but it all get destroyed by the sheer fakery of the show. It is more of a promotion for her Scientology connected Organic Liaisons.

-Casting: We have a stereotypical gay guy that behaves in all the stereotypical manners that most gay guys act in these stupid reality shows. The reason I’m calling this out is because it rings false. First, we know how scientologists view gay people. It just seems strange. If you need a gay person to fit the cast, why not one that doesn’t fill the bad stereotype of gay people?

-Scientology?: There is no mention of the space church in the six episodes I watched over time. Yet, the show has at least three major Scientologists show up throughout the show. If your religion is on the up-and-up, why conceal that?

-Too well prepared: Everything seems too scripted. The best example of this is the Twitter episode. It feels more like a badly sitcom than a reality show.

-Buy my product: Slowly, her organic diet program has seeped into show. We get a lot of shots of her in a lab coat pretending to create the formula. Please…

The problem with the show is Kirstie Alley behaves like she is an honest person, but her show is too fake. It’s not the train wreck that Jersey Shore or as interesting as Dog or First 48 to keep your attention.

That's is crazy, and I love that they make every attempt to cover up the Scientology connections. I mean all of Alley's movie friends are part of the church on that show.
