"Reality TV" It's Dead-Get On With It!




I am so sick of reality tv- it doesn't  deserve to be capitalized.
For awhile a few of the shows amused me-Housewives of New Jersey was kind of trashy in a Jerry Springer way-the word reality is some kind of joke,  scripting is an insult-kind of like watching WWF. You know it's fake, why waste time?
Can't flip through the channels without sixty odd reality shows, the other channels are nailing us with reality infomercials and there isn't much difference.
Now, Sarah Palin is going to have an "Alaska" reality show and her kid is shopping around for a Bristol family Donna Reed show, what is left?
Have we no shame or dignity anymore?
A show about  repo-ing someone's truck or motorcycle? Cheaters?  Process Servers? Pawn Shops? Funeral Homes?  Sara and Bristol Palin?
The entire United States media has jumped the shark.
No, jumping is a kind description, US media trawls the ocean floors with catfish, slugs and other bottom feeders.
We're supposed to be "entertained" by media's lowest common denominator-stupidity.
