I'll need to backtrack and see how this all began.
Sara and Erin Foster are the daughters of power music producer David Foster. He's the clown that made cheesedick music for "St. Elmo's Fire" and had himself, a reality show about the Jenner boys. How this family hadn't inter-banged is beyond me. You might as well call them the Beverly Hillbillies since David Fosters dick, by tranferable association has touched Bruce Jenner cock. Think about that.
The show is about these two attempting to kick start their own reality show. It's "This is Spinal Tap" for rich bitch shows. What makes this infinitely watchable is the banter between the sisters. So determined to undermine the other in whatever capacity they can. Their love for one another comes in the form of friendly sabotage. Yet one will not exist without the other. Sara, the older one, was a staple of young music video vixen from a Backstreet Boys video. Erin lives in the shadow of her image conscious sister yet is convinced she is her equal. Together they both chase celebrity with determination, yet no one knows...nor cares who they are. Consider the brief moments of fame deludes them into believing they are big to the world. I know I've gotten my mileage from being an electrician on "Saw."
Well, they aren't content with living their backslide aging actress years...less famous than their famous friends. The result...a lot of scheming. A lot of awkward painful latching on (Kate Hudson episode is painfully honest). And it has no connection to the fact neither of these girls ever have to work. It's the fame they desperately want. Call it vanity, boderline personality narcissists...it's fucking hilarious. They are mean spirited yet...cute. The cause so much chaos in the world they are invited to and are patiently tolerated by the people they look down at. In the end, the small realization they are normal people with grat skin and teeth simply emboldens them to try harder. Those are where the laughs are mined the best. Because it comes from deep pain from aging and being marginalized.
Watch this show if you can. It's a nice distraction.
