I doubt it--more people seem to be familiar with this "Reality" TV thing than with oh, I dunno, '1984'! Seriously, is nothing sacred? It seems 'South Park' got it right in that episode "Raising the Bar"...there seem to be no depths to which we wont sink if stuff like 'Honey Boo Boo' is on the air.<br /><br /><br />...Sorry, I seem to have started to rant.

I wish I were an alien from another world just so I would not have to associate myself with the travesties of humanity! Also, why is it called "Reality TV" when the executives basically control everything that happens in the show? This girl is loved by audiences because she wins competitions a lot and plays the house against each other, so she is hated by her fellow contestants and is about to go home? "CAN'T LET YOU DO THAT, HOUSEGUESTS! We must introduce some convoluted way to keep her on long enough to win!"

Well, it's always been there, but I feel like we've become really interested in it now that reality TV is common. Why would anybody be interested in the lives of these celebrities anyway? Because they're rich and lead different kinds of lives than we do? All I care about is the content they create and whether it's any good or not, and why anyone would want anything more is beyond me.<br /><br />I've been together with my girlfriend for almost five years now, where's my award?ShadianVisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14781350411603488703noreply@blogger.com
