If you don’t know what a Reality Show is in this decade, you have been living underneath a rock. A huge rock.
When I saw my first reality show I was a bit annoyed. One because I didn’t know why anyone would want to watch real events in peoples lives for fun. And two, because I was watching real eventsĀ in people’s lives for fun.
Since my first time watching reality, there has been an explosion of them all over the damn place. From American Idol to The Bachelor, I have no clue what to do with my relax time.
Being a music lover, I find it a bit frustrating that MTV (short for Music Television) has so many reality shows that it’s lost itself in the process. Hello? Where’s the Music? The only drop of music I see now is that hillbilly from Rock of Love playing his “geetar” for the 30 not so classy ladies that are fighting for him….Which grosses me out. Have they seen him at all??
Nevermind the “find a spouse” reality shows, let’s head over to the clueless department. Clueless meaning this should be your state of mind when watching shows like Fantasia, Real Housewives, The Hills and even though Kim’s ass makes up for her brains – Keeping Up With The Kardashians. I can’t help but ponder to myself “Self, don’t you have anything better to do than Watch The guidos from Jersey Shore fight over hair gel and Lasagna?” And quite frankly the answer is “NO.”
Do you know why, America?
Because society is NUTS for these shows. And if you don’t know who Hugh Hefner is boinking these days, you are considered a loser.
America has officially gone mad for these reality shows. Do you ever find it strange that Breaking News now consists of Heidi Montag’s latest boob job? Or Snooki’s “Bumpit”?
I can’t help but wonder why people like Coolio, M C Hammer, and Hulk Hogan can bounce from “Who????” to having their own shows. Who comes up with these ideas?
Do you watch reality shows? Which ones?

Considering we don’t have a TV, it’s hard to stay up-to-date with all the shows. Reality shows that I have watched in the past: Amazing Race, Survivor, The Mole, The Bachelor/Bachelorette, Dancing with the Stars, Dance Wars, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, one season of Beauty and the Geek(?), The Apprentice, I think I watched part of Making the Band…that might be it. Oh…America’s Next Top Model…which, if you know me in real life, you have to question this show…and I actually watch most of the seasons. I really don’t understand high fashion at all, but for some reason I watch it. haha I haven’t watched any recently. It’s crazy how these people become “stars” from the show. I was planning my cousin’s sweet 16 and came across that show where teen have their sweet 16 or some birthday party put together…Wow! crazy….
