Reality TV my way.

Ever watch reality TV? I do - but probably not those shows you're thinking of. Never been much of a Survivor fan (I think there are parts that are definitely scripted/staged) nor did I get hooked on The Amazing Race, Fear Factor or Road Rules (lame, lame and lame)... I like the sleazy reality TV. If I'm gonna watch someone else's reality on TV, it had better serve a purpose. Meaning, I am only going to watch someone else's "reality" if it makes my life better. And I can guaranTEE you... after watching an episode of Cops, Judge Mathis or The People's Court, you will (unless you're a star of one of those shows) most definitely think to yourself, "Hey - my life's not so bad after all! Look at the poor saps on this show!!!" For example, ever catch an episode of Surreal Life on VH1? GOOD LORD!!! These poor people apparently believe that agreeing to live for 14 days in a house with other once-wildly popular celebrities will revive their decrepit career. Well, don't think that's happenin', but they sure are hilarious to watch. If you didn't catch any of the last season, you reallllly missed out. Not sure I've witnessed a funnier celeb moment than when Verne Troyer (aka Mini-Me) got so loaded that he ended the night by peeing on the carpet... naked... from his scooter... with Da Brat watching. Makes my life look like a bowl of cherries!!! http://www.vh1.com/shows/dyn/the_surreal_life_4/88629/episode_videos.jhtml (click on 'Mini-Me's Gotta Pee' and then tell me how bad your life really is... puts it in perspective, eh?)
