Celebrity Fit Club is Bad, but Screech is Worse

Whether you thought it was stupid or rushed home to watch it every day, Saved By The Bell is one of those shows no one can really hate. For some of us, it was televised preparation for things to come, for others, it was the pretty twin of the not-so-awesome high school experiences we were going through. The fashions, the catch phrases, the pinnacle “I’m so excited/I’m so scared” episode that even has its own remembrance T-shirt…Saved By the Bell will never really die.

But you know who I kinda wish would? Dustin Diamond. Yup. Mr. Screech himself. Mr. I – Blew – All – My – Money – And – Can’t – Pay – For – My – House. Mr. I – Made – A – Sex – Tape – Nobody – Watched. And now, Mr. Celebrity-Fit-Club-Moron.

I don’t usually watch Celebrity Fit Club, something about C List actors sweating and jiggling in front of a camera makes me sad, but today at the gym (how ironic!) I wasn’t in control of the television, and therefore found myself watching the show for 45 excruciating minutes.

This season’s Fit Club is nothing different than the previous two; personalities you forgot about trying to lose their love handles and badonkadonks in front of a national audience. It’s kind of like Survivor for fat, annoying people. But the most of annoying of the bunch is most definitely Dustin “Dick” Diamond.

What do you think about Screech?

Mr. Diamond is a perfect example of why C and D-list actors are where they are; they’re not good at what they do. It’s obvious that Diamond is trying to be “the bad guy” on CFC, going after all the other cast members and telling everyone that he’s not going to lose weight because he doesn’t want to.

The problem is, he’s just not good at it. He’s not good at being “bad”, he’s not good at being funny, really, he’s not good at anything except being Screech (which is not the most awesome thing to be good at). This guy needs to go find another hobby and stop sucking up the airwaves.

Over the course of the gym-forced episode, I went from not really caring who Dustin Diamond was to being personally offended that he was alive. I may be a semi-judgmental person, but I’ve never been so angry at someone I’ve never met before in my life. Not even this guy can compare to Diamond’s annoyance factor.

I’d tell you to check out Celebrity Fit Club and join the revolution to get Dustin Diamond off TV forever, but then you’d actually have to experience his awfulness first hand…and I don’t want to be responsible for the headaches or vomiting that may be induced by watching.
