Just another crappy show in crappy TV. And people wonder why I don't pay for cable. Until I can watch real shows or pay for the channels I want. No thank you.

My brother has known these guys for years. Its all fake! He was even asked if he would like to be on the show. True TV it ain't! He has tried to get me to watch it but there are enough fake reality shows as it is. I do not need to see anymore. I have seen enough!

Yes, I think we've reached saturation point with reality shows. I find most of them annoying. I used to watch a Real Housewives show but no longer have time or inclination. For me it was something silly and mindless to watch and unwind for 1/2 hr. But. like most people today, who has time for TV?

MrBojangles...I'm sure there's some good programming out there. What about the History Channel? There was intelligent content on there the last I checked, but, you actually need cable for it. Rarely do you find it on the networks.

You mean that channel with: Ancients Behaving Badly, Ancient Aliens, Ax Men, Ice Road Truckers, Nostradamus Effect and Pawn Stars.

All the "educational" channels (outside of PBS, woo woo) have lost their way, sadly.

I find the best form of tv entertainment is watching fox news. I enjoy watching actors pretend to be news anchors and journalists.
