I gotta agree, reality shows....most of them. Actually though, if I don't like something I just don't watch so it really doesn't matter much to me anyway.

Yeah...I don't watch those kind of shows either...but I do get sick of them dominating the airwaves.

One show springs to my mind: Cheaters. Now I don't know if they're still making new episodes for this series (we only get to see older series over here), but if so: I don't wanna see them. Heck - I don't even wanna see the old ones! :P Any of you know what I'm talking about? ???

Inuyasha (Anime blows, especially this garbage!)
Sex In The City (reruns, on HBO I could ignore it, now I have to scan by it on TNT.  Even if you like this tripe, why would you want to watch the de-sexed edits on regular cable?)
Howard Stern (period)
American Chopper
that bounty hunter show with that bounty hunter
Inked
anything with Jimmy Kimmel

;D ;D ;D

It's just Hannity.  Colmes is a ventriloquist's dummy!
::)
Actually, I decided that Hannity is Lumpy Rutherford and Colmes is Eddie Haskell!

Even though I watch them, I think the world would be a better place without FOX and MSNBC.  CNBC can sink into a hole in the ground right now! 
If Rachel Maddow stops co-hosting on The Situation, I've got no use for it.  Tucker Carlson is the north end of a southbound horse, and so is that boxing commentator for ESPN.

I saw some adds on TV for Tommy Lee goes to College, end it now please 
It's better than The Bachelor, ...Millionaire, The Apprentice, and all that other BS I wouldn't watch with somebody else's eyes!  Hey, Pam Anderson gets all that exposure (hrrumph) and she doesn't even do anything! At least Tommy Lee is a halfway decent rock drummer.

I actually like Coronation Street and other British TV shows like Absolutely Fabulous and Doctor Who (it's sad that Christoper Eccleston quit the new series halfway through!  :\'(  He was so great as the doctor!  ;D )


I was hoping the O.C. would end, but I can't say that because I've never seen it!

Yeah, Survivor's been on for like over 10 seasons now I think. That's way too long for a reality show. Especially one that, IMHO, isn't very good.
