Duck Dynasty. Finally this week, I gave it the good try and watched the first two episodes. Massive fail.

~note to self~ Never ever ever ever again repudiate vow to not watch "reality shows". They all stink and Duck Dynasty stinks more, even way more than the Kardashians.
Amen.

Flipping Vegas, so scripted and fake...........and that screechy wife who comes across as very nitwitish makes me want to attack my TV.

I am so over most "reality" tv, just too fake.

As someone who wants to flip houses, and someone who loves Vegas, I have forced myself to watch this show quite a few times.

For those who have never seen the show, let me explain the most recent episode was a "Hoarders House" which Scott bought for $25,000. A total dump, in the storyline he was going to clean it out and sell it for $50,000 to make almost $25,000 profit. A smart move, if it was real.

First, the "Hoarder's House" was beyond ridiculous. It was as if the director or producer or whomever sets up these houses for Scott had little to no understanding of what a hoarder is. Sure, every room was full of stuff, but each room had some sort of theme. There was one room that only had books, and one room that had PINIATAS. Yep. The master bathroom had mannequin torsos hanging from the ceiling.

Then, in typical fashion for this show, the wife goes against Scott's wishes and totally renovates the entire place, adding some 30,000 to the budget.

The only reasons anyone should watch this show is if they are either a huge Vegas fan (there's a lot of us out there, who watch TV shows & movies based in or on Vegas) or if you enjoy seeing the before & after of flipped houses (they usually do a good job on this show) OR if you love to just sit back and laugh at how stupid the producers must think we are to believe this.

I can't stand The Big Bang Theory. All of the characters and all of their voices are so annoying that I can't decide which character is the most annoying. I also can't stand the show Friends. I think it's a horrible show and not funny at all.

Pretty much any reality show. I can't even stand to watch the Honey Boo Boo commercials.

One of the best comedy shows EVER!

Modern Family. Ed O' Neil will always be Al Bundy. And the characters just seem like poorly written caricatures just thrown together because they seem to be illogical or even incompatible together. That's the hook, right? Characters that make no sense being together being together. If any of the characters were remotely INTERESTING maybe it could work for me.
I don't get how its supposed to be that popular although its heavily promoted. Does anybody REALLY watch it?
But the worst is... Mike and Molly. I can't begin to try to guess how this show ever wound up on the air, except that it parasitically fed off Two And A Half Men's carryover time slot. Lame unappealing characters, poorly written dialogue, its just boring and a mess. What's worse it came when TAAHF imploded and nose dived so there was one less reason to watch.

The Today Show especially since the departure of Ann Curry.
