Please join my SARS group.

[Phrebert]

Stop All Reality Shows.
The new TBS Outback Jack TV ads have sent me over the edge.
Do they think we are that stupid.
The Swan makes us beleive the Surgery will solve everything. NOT!
Joe Schmo is even a fake reality show. Give me a break.

 

[grinningghost]

I'd join, because I hate most of them, but I do have a fondness for "Queer Eye", "American Idol" and "Family Plots". Other than that, sure I'll join, if I can be a "partial" member.

 

[Microcell]

I like Monster Garage and Big Brother, can I join as a "Only as a guilty pleasure for two shows" member?

 

[faithinkarma]

I got taken in by BB for the first time last year, which led to Survivor ( also for the first time )....but in general I dislike the whole reality show premise so much I would be willing to give those two up for the cause.

 

[auntpolly]

Sign me up -- I hate them all. I tried, but couldn't sit through a whole episode of a single one of them.

I read an interesting article about how the networks love to make them because they are cheap to produce, but they are shooting themselves in the foot because there is no rerun potential for them -- and the reruns are worth a ton of money.

PS -- I didn't read this thread for a long time because I thought it was going to be about some kind of SARS (the disease) support group!

 

[Luv2Roam]

The only ones I watch have to do with decorating.
Monster House
Trading Spaces
While You Were Out
Clean Sweep
Well -- I did get accustomed to What Not to Wear. Now I like that too.

Guess I just like TLC!

I don't mind Queer Eye and shows like that, but the ones where you have to risk life and limb for TV ratings or protitute yourself for a man/woman. YUCK!

I have never watched any of those. I think Survior has to be the stupidest show ever. Just attack the camera man and host and hold them hostage for the million dollars.

And those dingbats who are going to find true love???

 

[CourtasanSatine]

I hate dating shows but I love some of the games(i.e Amazing Race) and makeovers(especially Queer Eye)

 

[Banzai]

Like CourtasanSatine, I like the games and some of the makeovers (Queer Eye makes me laugh), but most love ones are boring IMO.

ETA: Am I the only one who thought something else when they read this title?

Nope.

 

[liznboys]

LOL Yeah I saw a commercial for Outback Jack last night, I won't be tuning in for that one.

I do like other reality shows though, looking forward to Amazing Race!! I love anything travel related so this is a fun one for me.

Guess I can't join your club...

 

[dianeschlicht]

Yep, sign me up too! I don't watch TV much at all anymore except for baseball. It seems "reality" (not sure that is an apropriate name) shows seem to be all that's available.

 

[powellrj]

I have to admit I like several reality shows

The Newlyweds
Celebrity Poker on Bravo
Queer Eye
Family Plots
Airline
Last Comic Standing
Dinner for 5

so I guess that means I can't join.... But I agree, the ones that are dangerous are getting out of control.

 

[Pooh67_68]

I am joining.

 

[EsmeraldaX]

I join! I join!!

 

[Credit Man]

Sorry! Although intellectually I would like to join...in "reality" I'm hooked.

 

[monkeyboy]

So is there a WARS?
