Driver1 0 #1 May 25, 2010 My wife is watching the Bachelorette and all kind of torn up over the show and she honestly believes that the actors and actresses are real and those shows are not scripted. Even after I showed he the full cast of characters and who they really are and all that. So what do you guys (and girls) think?There will be no addressing the customers as "Bitches", "Morons" or "Retards"! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnMitchell 16 #2 May 25, 2010 I think even if they are real I have no interest in watching a bunch of narcissists torturing each other. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driver1 0 #3 May 25, 2010 It amazes me that my wife sets here and says stuff like "oh how romantic", and I'm setting here thinking "Oh my fucking god!" I guess if the show was actually real and didn't feed off of the women's fantasies of what that show makes love and relationships out to look like, my attitude would be different.There will be no addressing the customers as "Bitches", "Morons" or "Retards"!

Jumpdude 0 #9 May 25, 2010 It's funny that this thread got started, a few months ago, Gerry House, Radio DJ on the morning show for 98 WSIX here in Nashville was slamming those shows and telling how fake it really is from a perspective of someone who has connections to the industry, and he had a lot of women calling in and were either pissed off or praising Gerry for telling the truth about it. I was amazed at how many called in raising hell with him over slamming it and some of them were dead set that it was real shit and could not be convinced otherwise. BOYCOTT IT!!!!!Refuse to Lose!!!

regulator 0 #11 May 26, 2010 Boycott that stupid shit. And furthermore they should outright BAN A Shot of Love (with a nasty ass skank) I mean um Tila Tequila. I want to shove a icepick in my eye when I have to think about watching a few episodes of that horrible show with my daughter in law. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jumpdude 0 #13 May 26, 2010 Let's add The Biggest Looser to this thread. I thought about making a new thread, but, hell, as far as I'm concerned, they are one in the same. Biggest Looser may not be as fake as the Bachelor, but I would be willing to bet the time frame that those people are loosing all that weight is a lot longer than they portray it to be. My wife watches that shit and cries every time them fuckers roll up on the scales. I just go to the other room and watch NCIS.Refuse to Lose!!!

happythoughts 0 #16 May 26, 2010 On some game shows, you win a trip or drive off with in a car. On these shows, you win another contestant (and possibly take the others for a test drive). Of course, is a new car more valuable than the used woman ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BillyVance 34 #18 May 26, 2010 About the only reality show that I ever watched was Fear Factor which had plenty of good stuff. The rest is just garbage filler.

MikeJD 0 #22 June 9, 2010 Glad to hear so many people bashing these shows. I find 90% of TV broadcasting insults my intelligence - but banality, sorry 'reality', shows are top of the list. Unfortunately they're cheap to make and they do attract a big audience. They also spawn other shows about them, hugely profitable phone polls, and new 'celebrities' about which yet more inane shows can be made. In other words - if you're a TV company executive, what's not to like? I'm afraid the makers of these shows will laugh at your small-scale rebellion.

You know it's fake she knwos it's fake but doesn't want to come to terms with the fact that it's fake but still wishes to argue with you aregarding it. So just look at her tits smile and say "Sure!"Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.
