I don't really watch television but I was over a buddy's house and he was watching this show, but what I really want to know is why they keep coming out with shows that follow around celebrities, and in this case has beens? I mean I know I don't want to watch a 230 lb Anna Nicole eat everything in sight, so why does the rest of america? What makes producers think people want to watch stuff like this? It kind of makes me sick to think that this could entertain a multitude of people. Have the standards for what entertains us dropped so much that this is considered good television, or are there just so many channels that producers struggle to fill them so much that they create shows like this. Either way there is something inherently wrong with a society that has so many channels they fill need to create pointless dribble to fill them all., or a society that is so caught up in celebrities that they need to have shows that just follow them around in their daily lives. I mean who really cares what any celebrity had for breakfast? Are people's lives so dull that they find it interesting or entertaining to watch the lives of celebrities and their families? Isn't there something else that people could worry about other than what this celebrity wore on what show, or whats going on with ozzy and family? Someone please help explain this to me because I am just not grasping any rhyme or reason to this ominous situation.

EDIT: btw anyone offended by the title to this, your too touchy
