    Hello,

    OK, who watches Reality TV?? Junk like Survivor and The Bachelor and other idiotic shows just really get to me. Nothing redeeming about them. Totally staged and more fake than wrestling! Here's your chance to really trash or support this type of "programming".

    I hate all except Fear Factor. I like the screener's idea of what "typical" people look like. Every contestant was obviously screened for how they look.

    All the babes are hot. And the stunts where the babes in bikinis are hanging upside down from a helicopter are to die for

    I dont "love it", but I watch it once in a while. I like the amazing race...but that's about it.

  4. I hate it with a passion but, like Cap, love Fear Factor. Joe Rogan's a funny stand up (not that you'd know it from this show) and the babes are all hot. Apart from that, they suck.

    Even if that were to happen the networks would probably still push it. Just think how CHEAP it is to make one of those shows. No sets, just a dopy house or rent a beach house for a few months. Get any third rate script writer to knock out a bunch of low brow ideas and puns. Then buy 4 used cameras and your set. With a prize of .5mill to 1 mill to get people to sign up it probably costs HALF or less of any Comedy or Drama.

    Think of the possibilities:

    Inflatable bonk-off
    KY fights
    Sheep-shagging
    Nuclear weapon disassembly and reassembly

  14. Actually, I'm more concerned about the inflatable bonk-off than the nuclear weapons.

    We all know what happened last time Dolly got 'pumped up' for some lovin'...

    Reality TV

    I would rather pull my own teeth with a pair of channel locks, while sharpening my dick on the bench grinder.

    I'm not sure "hate it" really covers it for me. I refuse to watch it.

    Survivor sucks. As I have said before, that's not survivor....dress 5 white guys up in Klan outfits, put them on the pitcher's mound at Cominskey Park (white sox, chicago) and tell them to get to Wrigley field. The one...if one makes it...is the survivor.

    Put a guy in a chum scuba suit and have him retrieve quarters from the bottom of the Great White Shark tank at Sea World....that's survivor.

    Put 14 people on antarctica in bathing suits, give them a lighter, some wood and a toothbrush...that's survivor.

    Have 5 men each have a 4 way with Rosie O'Donnel, Rosanne Bar, Janet Reno, Lorena Bobbit...that's survivor.

    Putting a bunch of shmucks on a tropical island trying to complete some games...sucks dog balls. Besides, I don't know about anyone else but I would be trying to bang just about every female player on that show and I've never watch it, I just know me well enough to know that in certain circumstances...the least ugly is the only option and she gets chosen because of a lack of options.

    My little (ain't so little anymore) nephew is interviewing with FearFactor to be in their seven episode 'survivor' version. One of the first things they said was "Lets see the goods" (Strip to your bathing suit)...

    He's built like a wall and has done some extreme fighting so he's a tad mental so he may do well should he be picked....

  27. Depends on what you refer to as REALITY TV


    I don't consider most of 'em REALITY - those shows are far cry from REALITY :P



    I watch A&E's Biography and on occasion tabloid-ish E! True Hollywood Story.
    Watch quite a few documentary type shows on TLC, Discovery, History Channel, Court TV, etc


    Not sure if those count...but they're at least a little more realistic.


    Don't really watch it, but I've seen a few episodes of The Apprentice.

  29. I like Survivor. I'm always amazed at how they don't get any drinking water. When we all know they aren't gonna let them not have water for more than 3 days.

    Also, hundreds of people, yet not one has ever made fire. Why don't they practice at home?

    I like watching the apprentice, but I just enjoy watching people screw up on a few simple jobs and someone telling them they're fired. Makes me feel like I'm supervising people again. I watch Fear Factor like I watch the Miss "**" Pageants. Anything that shows figures of hot women in skimpy clothes is #1 in my TV programming. I watch Dog-Eat-Dog for the very same reason.

    I want to find out "intimately" if Brooke's boobs are real or not.
