Reality TV that is. Well most of it anyway. I watched a season of Survivor and was over it, 2 seasons of Big Brother and was over it. I only watch X Factor and Idol when I'm desperate, have never watched Master Chef (the ads are enough) and I watched Dancing with the stars cause one of the stars on it, I liked. I also watched The Block for 2 seasons, before being over it as well. They are freaking everywhere, you can't turn on the TV without a reality show being on, no matter how much Channel surfing you do, there will be one somewhere.
I have to admit to watching Sister Wives, it fascinates me that these women live with this one man and put up with his crap LOL. I don't see loving families I see complete morons. Although not having a man around constantly isn't a bad thing, but dealing with all the other wives arrrggghhhh. I tend to watch it so I can bitch about it. Long Island Medium is another I watch occasionally, more for the fascination factor with all things occult than her and that is for sure. She's a disaster. Anyone that can use that much hairspray is a walking fire hazard.
Then I come to Honey Boo Boo, wtf is all I can say. How anyone can find that entertaining has me beat, I've forced myself to watch it just to see what the big deal is. As far as I can tell it's a bunch of hillbillies who are quite frankly disgusting. They eat crap, they are as dumb as planks, and how the hell she was ever a winner of anything amazes me. I happened to catch an episode where they were doing a recap, I got to watch the cooking, the dumbness (honey boo boo couldn't even spell bingo for fucks sake) and the excitement of Mommas neck crust, ewwwwwwwww.
I know there are lovers of reality TV out there, but seriously. It seems that the networks will jump on any excuse to show a new one, and I'm sorry but watching some little kid pick her nose while the whole family sits around farting is not entertainment. And there has to be people watching these shows, cause otherwise the networks would drop them faster than you can say fart. But who is it that watches them? I mean seriously? Who?
I want the networks to stop canning the good shows and get this crap off the air. It seemed at one stage that every single show I enjoyed they dropped, maybe after one season maybe after a pilot. And then they were replaced by Reality TV. WTF. This is not reality, reality is I get up in the morning, go to the can, shower, do some laundry, work, cook, and clean. There is no sitting around discussing shit, there is no fuck this and fuck that every 5 seconds, in fact I was just washing the car, and didn't swear once LOL. I'm not saying I don't, just seems to me that on some of these shows it's a constant and without it no one would watch. Mostly they seem to me to be totally scripted, I can't imagine people actually living like these shows show. Wife Swap, give me a break, who the hell would go on something like that? Obviously you'd have to get paid, and not something I could ever do since there is no hubby here LOL.
Okay there's my rant, now I'm going to go do some channel surfing. I'll be uploading video of me throwing the remote at the TV when I can't find anything decent to watch, I might even slam a door or two.
