Day 5: "Go diaf, kthxbai"

Day 05 - A show you hate

Reality shows.

There's nothing I despise more than having gazillions of reality shows that clutter our screens while good quality shows are becoming so few and far between these days. It's like why? What the hell is the attraction to seeing semi-scripted "reality shows" that hardly serve much purpose? Like okay, I do have a few guilty pleasure reality-based shows, but otherwise I don't get the appeal. I want to see drama between characters in an actual storyline, not overly melodramatic people bitching at each other making fools of themselves on national television. And people wonder why so many shows with potential are being canned, it's because our society wants drown their brains with stupid reality bullshit.

Other than that there really isn't a show I outwardly hate because if I don't like a show, I don't watch it. Simple as that. *shrugs*

Masterlist of days here.

I HATE reality shows. I hate the ones where it's all a bunch of people plotting against each other. And I find the various competition ones boring. Doesn't matter if it's singing or cooking or surviving, I'm not interested. And I'm insulted by The Bachelor and Wife Swap on so many levels.

Oh god, I hate Wife Swap. I caught an episode out of morbid curiosity (since the hoopla regarding that whacked out God Warrior Woman) and it's just so idiotic and revolting. I wouldn't want some strange woman replacing my mother for a short period of time. I'd be all "bitch please" the entire time.
