reality tv

Most people I know either love reality TV or utterly hate every bit of it.
Personally, I do enjoy some shows and my entire family gets addicted to them pretty easily id say.

My favs are survivor, dream job, and my big fat obnoxious fiance (this is over though). I dont go for the marriage shows to much

What do you all think? Like it? Hate it? What are your favorites?

I cannot speak lowly enough of reality TV. It appeals to the lowest common denominator by feeding on the worst of human nature for sustinance. As for Survivor...don't even get me started. That is the nucleus of the cancerous disease known as reality TV. May they all burn eternally in hell.

I have to admit, I enjoy a few of them. I think some of the show ideas are a little played out, but for some reason I still get sucked into watching them. It's kind of a shame we find entertainment and humor at the expense of other peoples embarrassment or pain.

^^^ To each his own.

How about MXC on Spike TV? I guess you could consider that reality tv. I love that show!

MXC is awesome!!! Funniest show I've seen in a while. As far as other reality shows go I watch the apprentice but that is about it. Out of all of them though if I had a choice of which ones would go away I would want american idol and fear factor gone.

Oh anyone remember that show Fear on mtv? I wanted to be on that show so bad. That looked like such an easy 5 grand

Why thank you...oh...you meant that fat fuck on TV. Hehe. As for MXC, it's really just a re-dubbed game show. Not what I'd call a reality show.

I enjoy some of the shows....I liked watching Average Joe (although both girls are complete tards and gave women a bad wrap.....always pickin the "hunks"....I thought the 2 average joes were way better than either hunk) and I like American Idol. I think it's nice for people that have a talent that wouldn't necessarily persue that career path to get a chance. I love MXC (agreed with GT though that I wouldn't really call it a reality show). I like the shows on TLC though....trading spaces and a makeover story are my favorites. Both shows are doing good things for the people involved....it's nice to see people on TV that are happy as a result of a reality show.
