You may watch reality shows even though you know they're trash but don't kid yourself that everyone else does it too just to justify it to yourself. Ever since Big Brother and it's ilk first appeared I've never been able to stomach more than about two minutes of any reality show.

Stephen Baldwin is not a fair weather Christian. If He wants Stephen to be on crappy reality shows, then that is what he will do. The Devil wanted Stephen to be in great movies like Bryan Singer’s superb, acclaimed big-screen mystery thriller “The Usual Suspects.”

Jesus wants Stephen to be in Humiliating Reality Shows. By the way, "Breaking Bonaduce” was one of the greatest reality shows of all time. I wish he would go back on drugs so he can make another show like it.

You don't know bigotry until Fox news debates whether the president MENTIONING your kind exists, or acknowledging your kind exists in the world is "offensive". Then you'll know bigotry. This is bowling. You guys set 'em up, we knock 'em down. Or maybe at this point it's more like Lucy and Charley Brown playing football. Get used to it, no matter what group you join, even and maybe especially one I'm a part of, is going to produce mind-numbingly stupid members who will eventually be the butt of some douchebag's joke on the Internets. It's hardly bigotry. It's more like sport, but without trophies, or dignity, or waiting around for injuries.

..."Ain't It Cool Reality" Harry Knowles sits in his den/office/bedroom in Austin, blogging and opening Fed Ex boxes of swag from Guillermo Del Toro and Peter Jackson all day, every day. Gradually we notice he only blogs good reviews of films by Guillermo Del Toro and Peter Jackson. Not much else happens. Test screenings of the show have found the audience to be disturbed by Harry's constant muttering of a phrase that sounds something like "Mock-Lit Smoothered in Mooshy Shoes". At the end of every hour episode, an over-aged Japanese schoolgirl for some reason comes into Harry's room to turn him over on his couch and spoon-feed him Cream of Wheat (who sponsor the program).

It's my pitch for a new reality show. It's where former celebrity, and current con artist Stephen Baldwin get jammed up the Octomom's twat, and shat out 9 months later. Every episode will easily be a 40 share, and the last episode will be bigger than the M*A*S*H finale, Roots, and every Superbowl combined.
Smackfu pretty much nailed it.

No games 3-4 of Cup finals are because of Conan's Tonight debut
by Tall_Boy66
Jun 1st, 2009
07:53:36 PM
NBC has games 5-7, and 6-7 are weeknight games. Considering how after the first two games it looks like the Wings are going to blow out the Pens, the series may not get back to NBC. Kind of sucks they bounced it, but I understand that Conan's first week can be huge and getting bumped by NHL going into OT could put a hamper on that. By week 2, two nights possibly getting bumped wouldn't be that big a deal. That's why they ran game 1 & game 2 back to back on NBC, something you hardly EVER do in a final, but I'm cool with that.
Amazing Race and the first 2 weeks of American Idol are good "re
by Tall_Boy66
Jun 1st, 2009
07:58:34 PM
And the first season of "The Osborunes" was interesting because, frankly, nobody had ever done it before (simply plop a camera in a house and watch them live their lives). Amazing Race is just great TV, regardless if it's reality or not because it has a distinct competition. And the first two weeks of American Idol is hilarious (but they unfortunately cut back on the Bad Singers, which is really the only reason the show is worth a damn to bother with. It's ratings are always the highest when it comes back. People love watching the judges getting tortured.) Aside from that, there hasn't been anything interesting to the format since Survivor got veryyyyyy stale, and there's nobody else interesting to follow around anymore. So, yeah, 90% of reality shows are shite. But not everyone.

Um, OK, apparently the last 8 years you guys were supportive of out president and were never attacking. Riiiiight. The sad thing is that GeorgieBoy is right.... and so are you. The difference is that Republicans aren't hypocrites. Libs spout out that we should all be tolerant, non-judgemental and respectful; however, you guys don't waste a second to destroy reputations of those who disagree with you, label people as bigots or racists, and act completely spiteful and hateful to others that don't buy into your propaganda. At least republicans don't lie and say they believe in tolerance, non-judgements and being respectful; they just speak their minds and don't give a shit who hates them or not.

So basically, you're all asshole, but you Libs just won't admit it

Sets up a table and hands out anti-gay materials. When people call him out on it, he starts spewing about intolerance. Douchebag with a capital D. Guess what, if your primary identifiable trait as of late is intolerance, you don't get to cry like a big baby about intolerance. It's how it works, get used to it. OFTEN. Republicans who want to be taken seriously for real conservative ideas need to seriously distance themselves from hate groups. Christian or otherwise. It just so happens that seems to be the breed they choose at the moment to get in bed with. It stops being about "disrespecting the opinions of decent, traditional, hard working Americans" when the opinions are intolerably idiotic, backward and hateful. No matter where you're from... and let me quote someone you may be familiar with... "it is what it is". Sometimes, when people spout hateful nonsense, OTHER people are going to have an opinion about it. That's not intolerance, it's criticism. Grow up, grow a pair and move on.
