So basically we're getting what they paid for. Cheap to make = horrid to watch.

I like the ones that are like game shows/challenges where there is something to win (except the dating shows) but the new crop like What Chili wants (what she really wants is Usher back but she screwed that up and no tv show in the world will fix it) Basketball, Football, Tennis Wives and Kendra just escape me. I have no idea why anyone would want to watch anyone go through their normal daily routine.

My favorite reality shows of 2010 were Hair Battle Spectacular, Clean House, How Do I Look and Tabitha's Salon Takeover.

I don't even know what to think of this.

I was at a club in NYC called Pacha. The day I went it was Snooki's birthday bash, and I'm wondering why the HECK should anyone care? What has she done and accomplished? What has she done for the world? It's not like it was reduced fare or anyone got in free either. I just don't know sometimes.

Then we have the old old lady that lives in 8B who wears all black since her son the doctor died, she sits at the window which seems like all day and all night long, we named her "The Sentinel"

Then there is the other couple in A17 that have been married for years already but have never "consumated" their "whatever".......they have an foster son that is the biggest brat on Earth. The husband is also into men as well, but no man would go near him since he has no teeth as he is afraid of the dentist...has a bad skin condition is is about 300 lbs.


Then we have the tenants below them, but the wife also had a BF and an apartment with him in the neighborhood as well, and the husband does not have a clue. She goes to her other apartment during the day time to be with her lover, while her husband here goes to OTB to place bets all day long.
She then comes home from a long hard day at work, I mean apartment, and continues he life with her husband.
They also have a daughter that is married to a jail bird and goes to the prison the have "married" time with her inmate, I mean husband.....who also sends her letters but somehow got into the hands of my friend the tap dancer and he spread the word around the building that she does certain things to her inmate, I mean husband....

Ok, this is all just in the first episode....

and seriously, 90 % of what I wrote is true....you think I could make this sheet up?????
Wow...that would be the best crazy reality show...EVER!

I like Keeping up with the Kardashians a ton *blush*
But I can't help but think about Kim's sex tape. That sex tape has really made her and her entire family millions! Wonder how her probably brilliant lawyer dad would have felt today about none of them being professionals though.

Because this world as drama, and now that's the IN thing for t.v, reality drama. So what better idea but to use uneducated people to sell on T.V!

I do love watching The real housewives of Atlanta though LOL!
