Why hasnt all of the reality TV stopped

[Semjaza]

Here's a new one coming soon. I saw it on GAF, it's from TV Guide:

"It's a man's world. And ABC's bachelors aren't the only ones running it. Bravo's Boy Meets Boy (Premiers Tuesday, July 29, 9 pm/ET) flips the script on dating shows by having gay bachelor James look for love in a pool of 15 men. The catch: some of his suitors are "closeted" straight men. A $25,000 prize is at stake, but if James picks a straight guy, the breeder gets the loot. Boy, oh boy."

Some reality television shows are tolerable. I enjoyed the first season of [i]Survivor[/i] and an occasional episode of last season's [i]American Idol.[/i] From my limited observations, I can say that, basically, what we get with "good" reality television--is a glorified version of a game show. [i]Fear Factor[/i] is a perfect example.

Unfortunately, the genre of reality television really has been beaten to death and taken to places where I don't think any reasonable human being would have liked to have seen it taken. [i]Mr. Personality[/i] had to be the biggest blemish on the face Reality TV. Not only is the premise of a woman dating men donned in masks reminiscent of the one found in Phantom of the Opera, silly, but the contest was hosted by a certifiable lowlife, Monica Lewinsky.

So, I just didn't watch it.

And that's all I can recommend to those of you who are annoyed by the genre. If something silly comes along that annoys you--just find something better to watch or don't watch at all.
