Anyone else hate reality TV like myself?
« on: June 18, 2007, 08:06:14 PM »
I absoultely, turely hate reality TV.  I was wondering if others hated the shows as much as I do.  If I wanna see jackasses, all I need to do is look outside at drunken college kids who don't have any self-respect.

Was wondering if other Aspies detest reality shows.

I'm not a fan of TV.
This type strikes me
as about the worst that
the media can manage,
though I'm not so optomistic
to believe that they can't sink
even lower.

Most of it is total fucking shit. Its responsible for turning talentless, obnoxious fucking nobodies like Jade Goody into fucking celebrities, and fuelling the current pathetic obsession with other peoples lives - as a way of living vicariously to distract people from just how meaningless their own sad lives are. I tend to mentally shelve all that bollocks alongside 'celebrity' gossip magazines and the like; total shit.

I don't mind having some reality TV shows playing in the background while I'm on the comp.
it is well known that PMS Elle is evil.
I think you'd fit in a 12" or at least a 16" firework mortar
You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

I'm not a fan of them but I have watch Extreme Makeover edition with my mother a few times. I also liked watching Super Nanny but I don't see it on anymore.
I used to watch Changing Rooms though on BBC America because I wanted to know more about England and their lifestyles. I watched anything on that channel back then.
I don't watch much reality TV because I am not into them.

I hate just about all Reality TV programming.   Hell I hate a good deal of what is on TV.  That is why I watch so little of it outside of sports (well movies sometimes).
:P   Internets are super serious.

I watched Big Brother the first few times it was shown here. Then I realised that they pick the same kinds of people every time.

Some of the housemates get very spoiled and forget that they were lucky enough to be chosen in the first place and have the chance to win prizes.

I love reality TV.  Not an avid watcher, but love seeing the crap that people put themselves through just for exposure.

Reality shows are crap, but, if someone likes them, so be it.  They're cheap to produce, make big profits in advertising and provide 15 minutes of fame to talentless, worthless individuals. ::)

IntensitySquared has brought a lot of fame for a talentless individual like me.  ;D
