Thread Name: BS: Megiddo
Subject: Megiddo
I'm dogsitting at a friend's house this week. Turned on the TV and saw the most- what can I say- bizarre religious show I've ever seen.

It's evidently called 'Megiddo', on TBN. Four people perched on - lawn chairs, maybe?- workers or maybe audience in the background.

One of the men looked sane- and yet he is the one who did most of the talking and somehow was able to keep a straight face. The other man (maybe his son?)was a giggler; the woman beside him didn't speak but her hair was spiked and touseled.

Ah, but the other woman was a treat- think a heavy Tammy Faye, with a twist. A flowing golden wig over shorter hair close to the face (looked like a poodle straight from the shop where the groomer had tried to get a startling effect). No Tammy Faye eyelashes, though.

She was wearing a black off-shoulder dress, deeply scooped to show her swelling breasts that were coyly peeping through her flowing locks...

At first I thought it was a parody of tv evangelism and I laughed and laughed- but it developed that they meant to be serious.

To bring this back to a music thread- there was no music.
