Tee time.

Getting a bit of a late start on today’s post – having some trouble getting focused today due to the drama that makes up those Simpson sisters. What a run of back luck those two are having the last few weeks! First, Jessica announces her separation from Nick (and plans to divorce yesterday), and now Ashlee inexplicably collapses after a concert in Tokyo. Fortunately, both of these items have been picked up by press across the world, so the sisters are surely getting the TLC they need from the media. And what better cure could there possibly be for two entertainers made famous by letting camera follow them in their own reality television shows?

On to today’s topic, which is only mildly related to what’s obviously one of my favorite pastimes (watching reality programming) - a list of the top television-related tees I covet for the holiday season:

1. “Divorce Kevin” t-shirt. I saw this advertised on the fittingly-named “Divorce Kevin” website, where non-K Fed supporters post pleas for Britney in an attempt to sway her into leaving her marriage. And there are seven different styles to choose from, which gives you seven different ways to shout it out. Seeing this message so many different ways would probably blow Kevin himself away, not due to the statement itself, by the concept that the rest of the world does indeed change their clothing more than once a week.

2. “Team LC” t-shirt. This one may be a little outdated, as LC’s now moved on to her own show, The Hills, but I still feel I owe her my endorsement. Sure, Kristin’s definitely more fun to watch, and we all wish we could be a little like her, but we’ve also all been in LC’s shoes and know how it feels. Of course, my shoes were probably never as nice/expensive, but I can relate nonetheless.

3. “Wink, Wink” t-shirt. Only true fans of The OC will remember this one, worn by Summer in an episode of season two, the one where she and Cohen redecorated Marissa’s room. This item, though, could easily be exchanged for the “Free Marissa” t-shirt glimpsed at the end of last week’s episode that will inevitably be for sale soon or for the “I Shot Trey” one that’s already available for purchase.

4. “Tutor Girl” t-shirt. Take note, all faithful three readers I have – the mention of this catch phrase introduces a new hidden television treasure that I rarely admit in public to watching. This snide comment used to be uttered on a regular basis by Brooke to Haley on One Tree Hill. And, since Brooke is the only character on that show that doesn’t seem to be crying on a regular basis/fighting with a long-lost parent/working to save a troubled marriage, I award my admiration to her. Plus, in real-life, she just broke up with icky co-star Chad Michael Murray, so more points for her there.

5. “Dawson’s Creepy” t-shirt. Yes, the show is no longer on, but I think this phrase really does epitomize how I felt about Dawson, and his cast of colorful pals, when it did broadcast on a regular basis.
