Well, the network will probably take off, I'm sure. Will I watch it, nope. I've never had any desire to watch any of these shows, and I don't see myself wanting to see any in the future.
I thought I'd seen them get as stupid as possible, then Fox came out with "Married by America", seesh.

Yeah I agree. I think they must have dreamed up the label 'reality TV' because they thought people wouldn't be grabbed by 'gameshow'. One of the first after all was Survivor, which they call in the show itself a gameshow! It's certainly not reality. Stuff like the Osbournes and the Anna Nicole show are just babies in the reality TV world. Actually I read in a magazine that some of the incidents in the Osbournes (I've never watched it myself) were staged and scripted. Which takes the interest (and reality!) factor out a bit. If I want a sitcom, I'll watch one with actually likeable people
I am a bit ashamed to admit I did watch the Bachelor though. Surprise surprise the relationship hasn't lasted! [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img]
Drew the line at Joe Millionaire though, just hearing the ad put me off 'for love or money' - well we can rule love out since all they did was go on a few 'fantasy dates' and bitched about all the other chicks trying to 'win' him. Plus his hair! Who could love that?
