Before I begin my rant, let me just say that nobody loves reality tv more than me. On that note, I must now trash the media that I love so much. It's called reality tv but how real is it? I know people have been saying this from the beginning about shows like Survivor and Amazing Race and believe it or not I used to defend those shows. But even I have abandoned my old love Survivor and moved on to greener, um..shores? I couldn't take the blatant ratings plugs that they felt they needed to interject like facing the races off against each other and giving the show a completely negative feel. I saw an advertisment for a new reality show about Pirates! Raise your hand if you think there is anything realistic about pirates..honestly. There are such things as pirates but not the way they are going to be portrayed on this show. I love in the commerical that the guy is wearing a bandanna on his head...oooh he must be a pirate!
And now they are doing all the "All Star" additions of your favourite reality shows. This is fun for me because it brings back all your favourite players from the years past. In some cases it can be really fun...but in others not so much. I didn't watch Amazing Race last season but when I heard they were doing the All Star Race I was totally in...until Rob and Amber were eliminated. I haven't watched it since but I hear that Charla and Mirna are in the final three and are looking like the ones who will win it. Now in past years the producers have always manipulated the end to make it a foot race between the final three teams. If that is the case this year I don't think that Charla and Mirna have a chance..because lets face it...they will never beat out the other two teams in a foot race. But I am curious to know if the producers plan on manipulating it this year to give that team an advantage. Is this reality? You tell me. I just love to see them telling everyone else how mean they all are while they themselves are so rude not only to each other, but to the residents of each country that they visit. Doesn't Mirna realize that by putting on that stupid accent she uses to speak to people whose first language isn't English, that she is being seriously condescending and insulting? Is that something that someone who is sooo nice would do? I don't think so Chmirna!
And don't even get me started on the whole Sanjaya controversy! I seriously wont even write about it cause I tend to get too worked up and I don't need the added stress!
Anyway I think I have taken up too much of your time for today..until next time my fellow bloggers!
peace out....~C~
