Reality/Competition Show, How many are there??

[weesie]

Ok, yes, I am bored. Trying to decide where to put my money tonight!

I hope you will all help me. I would like to figure out just how many of these shows there are.

I prefer scripted shows myself, but anymore, we just keep getting more and more of this "reality genre"

I thought we could make a list and number them as we go. What do you think?? Do you like them??

I read a article where a whole bunch of actors are calling American Idol about Simons spot when he leaves. It's probably because they are getting hard up for work because they are not producing "scripted" tv like they use to.

Give me "Bone, House, Burn Notice, White Collar, Criminal Minds.......... anything but this stuff!!

#1 American Idol
#2 Big Brother
#3 So You Think You Can Dance
#4 Survivor (spelled wrong, I'm sure)

Help me make the list!!

I watch a lot of the reality shows....its my escape from my life!! They totally crack me up, I watch for comedic relief really!​

I don't watch any of them... I used to watch Dog the bounty hunter for glimpses of Hawaii!! But him and his wife are SO TRASY!!! Oh and the pidgen (sp) english... "Hey bra!/hey brada" on and on and on! Could you imagine waking up to him or his wife! And get rid of that frikin tail and take off the Native American garb he wears in his hair... He just got lucky and now they're RICH.. Bet there are more than a few Hawiian's, Samoans etc. who would love to beat his ass and send him back to the main-land.. Ok I guess you get my point!!

And after he made the rasist comment I noticed they were "hunting" more in Colorado... Hmmmm... Sorry but Hawaii is my favorite place to be so far. Been 7 times and lived there for a yr. many yrs. ago.

Does Intervention count??? My friends and I agree, you'd have to live under a rock to not know you were not having an intervention!! And not a rock of coke!

The whole so-called reality shows snowballed, people were watching and they were cheap to make/produce. You don't need writers or actors, just the produces "guiding" the characters. Totally scriped in that way!!!

I just watched a Doc. on "reality shows" pretty amusing!

XoX

You asked Carey!!!

lol great thread!

I'm not much of a tv watcher, prefer to get my news etc online lol...

I love to watch reruns during the day if I'm near the tv, JAG, Matlock, even AFV - the only new show I watch is The Closer! Wow I love her lol We all love the Looney Tunes on Cartoon Network, Sponge Bob and believe it or not I-Carly.

I wake up a lot in the middle of the night, used to watch x-files but finally figured out THEY were why I was waking up lol, so now it's on the boring food channel. Have learned some great cooking techniques though! My favorite show is Unwrapped - but gosh it gives me cravings lol.

I think these would be considered non scripted food shows:

Iron Chef
Chopped
Challenge

Dog the Bounty Hunter? If anybody watches this show just 2 let you know , this is what i do for a living, its nothing like this in real life. Im with you labell , they are trashy, but i do have a little respect for him when he got the max factor heir {andrew luster, scum}ddntdt he found him when no one else could, and by the way he got paid $0 for it. Typical govt bs screwed him on it.<!-- / message --><!-- sig -->
