his and everyone else's.

usually, i am a person who loves scripted television. i am addicted to weeds, have watched entourage since the beginning, cant wait for californication to come back, and just started lost, trucking thru the first season in a day and a half (23 episodes).. i love scripted television, and as a writer, i rarely venture into the world of reality television. the only show i religiously watch is survivor, and i have watched since day one. so this summer, i live with the infamous Rando, a man i have mentioned before, and will mention again and again. he is absolutely addicted to reality television, and i mean addicted to shows that no one in their right mind would ever have an interest in. this post is going to take a look at the shows that he has subjected me to this summer, and while i cant explain each and every show, i will explain the ones that have sometimes left me feeling borderline retard.. so without further delay, he is the list, with some explanations, in no particular order.. here goes:

• the real housewives of new jersey
• so you think you can dance
• intervention
• obsessed – basically intervention but about ocd. these people are so nuts that they pull out there hair and scratch their skin until they bleed.. pretty fucked up
• ice road truckers
• bridezilla
• kendra – holy shit, i actually like this one cuz she is slammin
• denise richards: its complicated
• kathy griffin: my life on the d-list – unreal show, she is incredible and so fuckin funny.. check her out hosting the roast of joan rivers on comedy central
• top chef masters
• shes got the look – a project runway for people 30 and older.. fuckin weird
• 16 & pregnant – just have a fucking abortion dammit
• nyc prep – the most fucked up kids you will ever see on tv.. money is all they think about
• big brother 11 – i actually like this as well.. similar to survivor with voting and shit, and the backstabbing is insane
• battle of the bods – 5 girls rank themselves in areas like boobs, face, butt, etc. and 3 guys rank them as well, if they match rankings the girls win money
• pawn star$ – three family members run a pawn shop in vegas.. most ridiculous reality concept ever
• dating in the dark – unreal.. it is an experiment to see if personality matter more than looks, but looks win most of the time
• hells kitchen – this show is intense, and people are fucking terrible at cooking
• the colony – another survivor style show, the contestants are put into a post-apocalyptic world and have to start from scratch, creating power and energy and such.. pretty cool
• making his band – puff daddy wanted a new band, so he decided to get a free one
• operation repo – a fat family owns a repossession company and fight people to take their assets

so these are just a few of the shows that i have been subjected to this summer. at times i think i might go brain dead, but i really dont have much of a choice of what we watch on tv. it is an interesting array of shows, some that make me want to kill myself, others that feature great eye-candy and somewhat interesting concepts, but i definitely feel the need to stick to scripted shows, things that actually make you think and not sit there and wonder why a 16 year old thinks she can raise a child instead of getting an abortion.
