"So our tangerine guidos have finally failed us. What other insipid waste of human dignity can we defecate into our latrine of a network?"

We still get a full season of the shore...

Now Italians can be stereotyped as something respectable, like a career criminal, again.

Oh good, Jersey Shore is gone. Now if we could just get rid of Honey Boo Boo, all "Housewives" shows, every dating contest show, Say Yes to the Dress, Storage Wars, Intervention, Shipping Wars, Dancing with the Stars, American Idol, America's Got Talent, The X-Factor, The Voice, So You Think You Can Dance, The Apprentice, Cupcake Wars, Cake Boss, Master Chef, America's Next Top Model, any show that involves a Kardashian or Paris Hilton or any Palin, Teen Moms, Survivor, Big Brother, Parking Wars, Ax Men, Ice Road Truckers, Bering Sea Gold, Gold Rush, and anything involving those imbeciles who make choppers...

... then I'll be happy.

Good, you did not say Pawn Stars. That is the only reality show that I like. It is like Antiques Roadshow with interesting items and people...

... and Pawn Stars. Or Hardcore Pawn. If I didn't mention a reality show, it probably just slipped my mind. The only personal exceptions to my hatred of reality shows would be Mythbusters, Dirty Jobs, and maybe Deadliest Catch. That last one started declining in quality over the last few years, though.

You'll never get rid of reality TV. It's too cheap to produce, and gets too many viewers; the profit margins are way too high.

I dunno if I'd qualify Mythbusters or Dirty Jobs in those categories. In my book, it's not "reality TV" until someone's "not there to make friends." Or, failing that, an "alliance is formed."

I'm a sucker for the Food Reality shows like Bizarre Foods and Man vs Food. It's really opened up my eyes to all kinds of delicacies and places to eat when I'm traveling.

Just so long as it's not "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives." I've eaten at a few of the places they've showcased in and around Seattle, and the food has always just sucked, I mean, positively revolting food. There's always the chance that maybe they were good before the shows aired, and that they've been overwhelmed since then, or the chefs have been lured away by other restaurants after being showcased, but I can only give the benefit of the doubt for so long.

Jersey Shore never irritated me as much as say those Housewives show.

Why? Shore cast were mostly young adults playing into their gimmick and just being young and stupid... while drinking and trying to get laid. Whatever.

These Housewives shows? You know... those 40 year old stay at home queens in huge houses, never worked a day in their lives beyond spreading their legs to the right guy and complain about everything.... including the food being served to them from the help... "oh honey, tonight, I made the carrots, can I get a new credit card? I worked so hard."

You MADE thew carrots.... eh voila Mother Nature herself... MADE THE BROILED CARROTS. Congrats you fat-lipped whore.

I HATE THESE PEOPLE SO MUCH.

The worst is when they dress like 20 year olds looking younger than their kids.... and act like they are still in highschool... bitching about the other over-privileged people..

HATE THEM SO MUCH

I am pretty sick of all the work-a-day reality shows. Especially when they take up entire channels that used to be about Science, History, or Learning...

Hell TLC has devolved into the Freak Show Channel.

I admit, I'm a sucker for food shows. The F Word, Hell's Kitchen, Top Chef, Master Chef, Kitchen Nightmares... I just enjoy watching people make good food and/or Gordon Ramsay yelling at people :p

Other than that... me and my folks have a tradition of watching Survivor, Amazing Race and the Apprentice, so I watch those as well.

Big Brother, especially its Finnish incarnation, I absolutely hate. Same with The Biggest Loser; I know they offer good tips, but I was more than a little put off by some of the tasks that were pretty much excuses to humiliate fatties.

Hey, Man vs. Food and its spinoff, Man vs. Food Nation, rule. Even if Adam Richman is just a big goofball at times.

Yes, that's why he no longer does the competitions. Wife and I both mentioned he's packed on the weight since those first episodes.

I kind of like Kitchen Impossible. It just further re-enforces my belief that you chould never, ever get Ice in your drink at a restaurant. I watch Pawn Stars too, but only because of how laughably over produced all of it is. It's pretty clear at least half of those things coming in are people planted by the producers.

I know. I'll have to content myself with a smug sense of superiority over the people who consume all this shit.

Do you watch one or two reality shows? No biggie. Everyone has a guilty pleasure.
Do you watch 5-10 of these shows? You need to knock that shit off. This stuff is crap and you can do better. It's like eating junk food every night of the week.
Do you watch tonnes of this crap, and it's practically the only thing you watch? Ugh. Please do me a favor and don't breed.

Woohoo! I fit category one. I watch No Reservations (on Netflix), and the old UK episodes of Kitchen Nightmares (also on Netflix, my TV is for sports and weather news); Fox Network Gordon Ramsay can fuck right off.

Category one here as well. Kitchen Nightmares (the US ones, which are quite enjoyable in my opinion) and Master Chef Australia. Survivor: Heroes vs Villains just ended here (yes yes, old news, but we don't get any US shows fresh out of the oven, not unless we buy cable).

I wish I could brofist this like a billion times. My wife was watching the one with the housewives from Vancouver and I stupidly sat down for a bit and was absolutely raging after about 2 minutes of these vapid entitled bitches.

I hate those Housewife shows too. Who watches them, and why??? It's damn close to criminal to pay attention to these people. If you send the message that the deserve to be famous by watching this show, then you are part of the problem. That goes for any reality show that rewards talentless people with no manners and almost no personality by filming them. It's disgusting.
