O

n the TLC channel, you can watch a woman drinking her own urine and a man making love to his car.

On A&E, you can watch hoarders living in feces-ridden, roach-infested homes while their children plead for them to get help.

On truTV, you can watch people desperate for cash selling their possessions on “Hardcore Pawn” – and watch the owners of the pawn shop call each other a string of obscenities when they’re not doing it to customers.

After Sept. 11, 2001, experts in the entertainment industry were predicting the death of reality TV in favor of more uplifting, positive programming. The events of that day were so horrific, it was assumed that viewers would eschew the backstabbing, name-calling, masochistic themes that had proliferated television in favor of more thought-provoking subject matter.

Yeah, right.

Reality shows are not only more plentiful than they were in 2001, they’re more sensationalistic, appealing to the lowest common denominator. It was one thing to watch criminals being busted on “Cops” or contestants on “Fear Factor” and “Survivor” eat bugs and cow brains – one could at least argue in both instances that the subjects brought it on themselves by committing crimes in the former or by competing for a massive payout in the latter.

Now we’re watching everyday people dealing with deeply personal issues, from teen pregnancy and drug addiction to mental disorders and divorce, all on camera for others’ amusement. As we become inured to a certain type of reality TV – as the shocking becomes commonplace, even boring – the envelope is pushed ever further to drive ratings up.

Is this what we’ve been reduced to? A society of voyeurs that revel in the misery of others? Does it make us feel better about ourselves – thank God we don’t live like that, we’re not that stupid, we have more self-control?

It could never happen to us. Right?

One could argue that these shows help people deal with their disorders by giving them professional help.

One could also argue that, hey, they agreed to be on camera, and they likely received payment to boot.

But at what cost? Now that they’ve aired their dirty laundry in the most public of forums, how will that affect the rest of their lives, their relationships, their careers? What about their children, who as minors have no say in the matter? What do they think when they watch the show and hear people talking behind their backs in one-on-one interviews?

This isn’t “Candid Camera” or “Real People” or even “The Real World.” This is a freak show. The only difference is that instead of paying to watch a sideshow attraction at a carnival, we’re paying a cable company to have it broadcast into our homes.

But because reality shows are cheap to make, it’s unlikely that they’re going to go away soon. At least, unless we’re willing to avert our eyes and say, “Enough.”

I’d like to know what you think. Do you think reality TV has gone too far? Or do you think I’m over-reacting?

Email me at the address below, and I’ll feature your reactions in a future column.

Lucky y u There’s a great variety of St. Patrick’s Day celebrations for Mainers to enjoy this year.

By RAY ROUTHIER Staff Writer

T

hey say everybody is Irish on St. Patrick’s Day. Some folks more than others.

Take, for example, the parade- and festival-happy residents of Bath, who started a weeklong St. Patrick’s Day-themed celebration four years ago called Bath Blarney Days.

The week starts with smaller events around town, such as pub sing-alongs and Irish trivia nights. But the real pot o’ gold comes on St. Patrick’s Day, with a schedule of events that includes a road race, a parade, a tug of war, an Irish soda bread baking contest, live music and the Blarney Ball dance at night.

So Bath must be a city with a rich Irish heritage, right?

Like Portland?

“Not so much,” said Jennifer Geiger, director of Main Street Bath, an organizer of the Blarney Days events.

“It started when Byrnes Irish Pub opened up, and they came to us and wanted to start a St. Patrick’s Day Parade.

“It’s grown, and now the thought behind it is, ‘Hooray, it’s finally the end of winter and we can get outside and get the community together to have fun.’ ”

Hard to argue with that philosophy.

Whether you want to be part of a spring festival, watch a parade, hear Irish music, eat corned beef or see Irish dancing, there’s plenty of St. Patrick’s Day options for you this year around southern Maine.

Below is a list of some of the St. Patrick’s Day events.

Check with your favorite bar, restaurant or pub to see what they might have planned, as well.

All events listed below are for Saturday. n BRIAN BORU LOCAL IRISH FESTIVAL: 6 a.m. to closing, Brian Boru, 57 Center St., Portland. Free. brianboruportland.com This venerable Irish pub in Portland, in the bright-red brick building, has events all day long, beginning with a traditional Irish breakfast at 6 a.m. Guinness and whiskey will be available. Other events include: Traditional Irish music at 7:30 a.m.; poetry by Ireland natives at 9:30 a.m.; roaming bag pipers at 11 a.m.; Stillson School Irish Dancers from noon to 1 p.m.; a variety of pop and rock music beginning at 1:30 p.m.; and Irish food on the menu all day.

n BULL FEENEY’S ST. PATRICK’S DAY 2012: 6 a.m. to 1 a.m., Bull Feeney’s, 375 Fore St., Portland. 773-7210; facebook.com/bullfeeneys

"Bonanza" by Foam Castles is a gori#POBO[Bw CZ 'PBN $BTUMFT JT B HPS geous indie-pop record, a big, beautiHFPVT JOEJF QPQ SFDPSE B CJH CFBVUJ ful slice of reverb-drenched hooks and GVM TMJDF PG SFWFSC ESFODIFE IPPLT BOE dreams. Everything echoes on this album, ESFBNT &WFSZUIJOH FDIPFT PO UIJT BMCVN from the double-tracked vocals and the GSPN UIF EPVCMF USBDLFE WPDBMT BOE UIF crashing cymbals to the guitars that buzz, DSBTIJOH DZNCBMT UP UIF HVJUBST UIBU CV[[ ring and soar - sometimes within the SJOH BOE TPBS o TPNFUJNFT XJUIJO UIF confines of one song. The reverb gives DPOmOFT PG POF TPOH 5IF SFWFSC HJWFT the record a late-'60s psychedelic vibe, UIF SFDPSE B MBUF T QTZDIFEFMJD WJCF but without sacrificing traditional song CVU XJUIPVU TBDSJmDJOH USBEJUJPOBM TPOH structure or catchiness.

TUSVDUVSF PS DBUDIJOFTT Foam Castles has managed to produce 'PBN $BTUMFT IBT NBOBHFE UP QSPEVDF the rarest of albums: one to listen to on UIF SBSFTU PG BMCVNT POF UP MJTUFO UP PO headphones and get completely lost in, IFBEQIPOFT BOE HFU DPNQMFUFMZ MPTU JO but also one that will have you tapping CVU BMTP POF UIBU XJMM IBWF ZPV UBQQJOH your foot and singing along.

ZPVS GPPU BOE TJOHJOH BMPOH The hints of psychedelia are not so 5IF IJOUT PG QTZDIFEFMJB BSF OPU TP much of the late-'60s-San Francisco NVDI PG UIF MBUF T 4BO 'SBODJTDP variety (there are no freak-out jams or WBSJFUZ UIFSF BSF OP GSFBL PVU KBNT PS overly long instrumental passages). Even PWFSMZ MPOH JOTUSVNFOUBM QBTTBHFT &WFO though Foam Castles hails from Portland, UIPVHI 'PBN $BTUMFT IBJMT GSPN 1PSUMBOE the band mostly conjures up images of UIF CBOE NPTUMZ DPOKVSFT VQ JNBHFT PG swinging London circa 1967.

QJPOFFSFE JT OFBSMZ QFSGFDUFE IFSF The opening track, "Basement Dot," 5IF PQFOJOH USBDL i#BTFNFOU %PU w starts things off in fine fashion, with chimTUBSUT UIJOHT PGG JO mOF GBTIJPO XJUI DIJN ing guitars, a soaring chorus and a bit of JOH HVJUBST B TPBSJOH DIPSVT BOE B CJU PG New Wave-esque synthesizer. /FX 8BWF FTRVF TZOUIFTJ[FS "Passin' " will make a terrific driving i1BTTJO w XJMM NBLF B UFSSJmD ESJWJOH song for your summer road trips, and the TPOH GPS ZPVS TVNNFS SPBE USJQT BOE UIF almost pastoral "As Far as I Go," with its BMNPTU QBTUPSBM i"T 'BS BT * (P w XJUI JUT acoustic strumming and keyboards that BDPVTUJD TUSVNNJOH BOE LFZCPBSET UIBU sound like a string section, is the quintesTPVOE MJLF B TUSJOH TFDUJPO JT UIF RVJOUFT sential Sunday-afternoon soundtrack.

TFOUJBM 4VOEBZ BGUFSOPPO TPVOEUSBDL "My Merona" is as close to a straight-up i.Z .FSPOBw JT BT DMPTF UP B TUSBJHIU VQ rocker as Foam Castles gets on this alSPDLFS BT 'PBN $BTUMFT HFUT PO UIJT BM bum, with guitars and vocals mixed right CVN XJUI HVJUBST BOE WPDBMT NJYFE SJHIU up front and barely a hint of reverb until VQ GSPOU BOE CBSFMZ B IJOU PG SFWFSC VOUJM the scorching guitar solo.

“THE LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST,” starring “HAPPY FEET TWO,” animated with the voices Willem Dafoe and Barbara Hershey. Ever the button-pusher, Martin Scorsese’s controversial of Elijah Wood and Pink. Tonally inconsistent 1988 take on the crucifixion puts more emphasis but plenty fun all the same, this inevitable on Christ’s mortality than any film before or sequel to the 2006 dancing penguin megahit since, reminding the viewer that as a man he was finds Mumble (Wood) risking life and flipper not without sin – a notion that proved to be too to track down his runaway son. In his absence, meanwhile, a glacier crashes into his community, much for many viewers at the time. This Criterion release features a commentary from Scorsese, cutting its adorable citizens off from food and Dafoe and writers Paul Schrader (“Taxi Driver”) family. The tragic subplots don’t always mesh with the cutesy feel of the enterprise, but there’s and Jay Cocks (“Gangs of New York”). Rated R. never a dull moment, and an all-star cast of voice Running time: 2:44 Suggested retail price: $39.95 talent (including Robin Williams, Sofia Vergara and Brad Pitt) energetically brings the proceedVIDEOPORT PICKS ings to life.

From early creepfests like “The Kingdom” to the gory grief of “Anti“MY WEEK WITH MARILYN,” starring Michelle christ,” director Lars von Trier refuses to play it Williams and Eddie Redmayne. Sometimes a safe. And in this near-unclassifiable drama/sci-fi single performance renders a film well worth seeing. That’s absolutely the case with this slight stunner, he plops already nerve-wracked new but amusing biopic-of-sorts in which we witness bride Justine (Dunst) into a particularly dire situation, wherein not only is her wedding night Williams (“Blue Valentine”) becoming Marilyn turning out to put undue strain on her already Monroe before our very eyes, bewitching the audience and wide-eyed assistant director Clark tenuous relationship with her sister, but a recently discovered planet named Melancholia is (Redmayne) utterly – when not enraging poor Laurence Olivier (Kenneth Branagh), with whom reportedly hurtling its way toward Earth, likely spelling doom for its understandably concerned she is attempting to co-star in the notoriously troubled 1957 production of “The Prince and the inhabitants. Stylish craziness abounds. Rated R. Running time: 2:16 Showgirl.” Nothing groundbreaking storywise, Suggested retail price: $26.98; Blu-ray $29.98 but Williams somehow manages to top an already formidable string of performances with “YOUNG ADULT,” starring Charlize Theron and this masterful turn.

A somewhat immature fiction Suggested retail price: $29.98; Blu-ray $39.99 writer (Theron) decides to cap her divorce off with a trip back to her Minnesotan hometown, “THE THREE MUSKETEERS,” starring Orlando hoping to rekindle a romance with her ex-boyBloom and Logan Lerman. Dumas’ classic friend (Patrick Wilson), a now happily married employs perhaps more explosions than its husband and father. Providing a shoulder to cry original author had in mind (many, many more on is Oswalt, who fulfills the promise he showed explosions), but when you have “Resident Evil” in “Big Fan” with a terrific turn at Theron’s veteran Paul W.S. Anderson behind the camera, schlubby old pal, who quietly pines for her in the this is par for the course. In truth, “Musketeers” is a pretty darn enjoyable popcorn movie, never background. Funny, sad and thoroughly entertaining. Rated R. Running time: 1:34 one taking itself at all seriously.

“BAG OF BONES,” starring Pierce Brosnan and Melissa George. Solid adaptation of Stephen King’s popular novel concerns bereaved novelist Brosnan, whose attempt to hole up in his Maine summer home for some much needed alone time is infringed upon by a troubled young single mom (Annabeth Gish) and repeated encounters with what would appear to be ghosts. This TV miniseries offers a fair number of chills and a nicely grounded lead performance from Brosnan.

Not rated; contains mild language and frightening imagery. Running time: 3:54 Suggested retail price: $26.99

THERE IS NO COMPARISON EVERY DAY - ALL THE TIME JOKER’S IS THE BEST VALUE!

“THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN,” animated with the voices of Jamie Bell and Andy Serkis. Based on the classic comics by Herge, this wonderful action/fantasy from director Steven Spielberg and producer Peter Jackson omits nary a detail nor character from the original sprawling adventures, yet keeps the story and action completely accessible. The motion-capture technology that disturbed so many viewers in “The Polar Express” has come a long way since then, and there Courtesy photo are several sequences here that are positively George Clooney and Shailene stunning. Rated PG. Running time: 1:47 Woodley in “The Descendants.”

Suggested retail price: $29.99; Blu-ray $54.99 “THE DESCENDANTS,” starring George Clooney and Judy Greer. Arguably the most critically acclaimed movie of the year, this challenging dramedy from the always intriguing Alexander Payne (“Sideways”) provides Clooney with the best role of his career to date as Matt King, a well-to-do but shambling real estate attorney based in Hawaii who must contend with one upsetting realization after another when his wife is involved in a possibly fatal waterskiing accident.

Adding invaluable support here are Shailene Woodley as Clooney’s teenage daughter and a surprisingly effective Matthew Lillard as a fellow real estate agent who reportedly slept with his wife. Rated R. Running time: 1:55 Suggested retail price: $29.98; Blu-ray $39.99

ORTLAND â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Before going 035-"/% Â&#x2030; #FGPSF HPJOH to Niagara Falls for the first UP /JBHBSB 'BMMT GPS UIF mSTU time, I remember thinking, UJNF * SFNFNCFS UIJOLJOH "This place can't possibly live up i5IJT QMBDF DBO U QPTTJCMZ MJWF VQ UP UIF IZQF w to the hype."

But it did. #VU JU EJE #FDLZ T %JOFS PO 1PSUMBOE T Becky's Diner on Portland's waterfront may be in the same XBUFSGSPOU NBZ CF JO UIF TBNF boat in some people's minds.

4P UIF QMBDF HFUT B MPU PG IZQF But on a recent visit to Becky's, #VU PO B SFDFOU WJTJU UP #FDLZ T I was reminded why the hype * XBT SFNJOEFE XIZ UIF IZQF started building in the first place TUBSUFE CVJMEJOH JO UIF mSTU QMBDF - it's a genuine local institution, a o JU T B HFOVJOF MPDBM JOTUJUVUJPO B great diner with a very local vibe.

HSFBU EJOFS XJUI B WFSZ MPDBM WJCF My first reminder came when .Z mSTU SFNJOEFS DBNF XIFO I went in for breakfast on a Sat* XFOU JO GPS CSFBLGBTU PO B 4BU urday, and was seated right next VSEBZ BOE XBT TFBUFE SJHIU OFYU to the lobster tank.

UIF PDFBO B EBZ FBSMJFS The second big reminder came 5IF TFDPOE CJH SFNJOEFS DBNF when my hash arrived. It was XIFO NZ IBTI BSSJWFE *U XBT the day's homemade corned beef UIF EBZ T IPNFNBEF DPSOFE CFFG hash special, which included the IBTI TQFDJBM XIJDI JODMVEFE UIF hash, two eggs, home fries and IBTI UXP FHHT IPNF GSJFT BOE toast for $8.25.

NPJTUVSF BOE nBWPS TFBMFE JO One thing to remember about 0OF UIJOH UP SFNFNCFS BCPVU ordering the hash, though, is that PSEFSJOH UIF IBTI UIPVHI JT UIBU the homemade hash is a special UIF IPNFNBEF IBTI JT B TQFDJBM item.
