Reality TV

Poll question: Reality TV

I hate reality television in general, and I truly hope one day that the TV genre will be over. But there is one reality show that I can't live without, I'm even considering buying TIVO just to make sure I don't ever miss it again! As much as I despise reality TV, this is kind of a dirty secret that I keep. I'm curious to know if you any of you feel the same.

So fess up! Which reality TV show can you not live without, that you tune in religiously to watch week after week? Be honest, we won't know who you are unless you tell us. :)

1. I've never watched more than a few minutes of any "reality" show.

They're all horrendous, as far as I'm concerned.

2. I can live without all of them but

I do watch some of them. However, if I miss an episode or two or three, it doesn't bother me one bit.

I love Amazing Race and then some of the shows on MTV. VH1

3. Project Runway and Top Chef

not sure if they are really "reality" but I love these shows.

4. C-SPAN

It used to totally suck, but then a whole lot of them got voted out. It's been much better since early January.

6. I don't like any of the type you list on the poll

But I do like the ones like Mythbusters and Dirty Jobs

Would Iron Chef be in the same category as Top Chef or American Idol - I like Iron Chef

7. Oh yeah!

I've seen Mythbusters a couple of times. Neat show and a great concept! Those guys love to torture themselves in the name of science, don't they?

[YankeyMCC]

9. Well usually they torture their dummy Buster

but sometimes themselves :)

I also liked Deadliest Catch - and I don't even like seafood :)

8. The Real Housewives of Orange County...

I don't know why, I can't explain it, but I am completely addicted...

:shrug:

Other than that, an occasional epsiode of Wife Swap bc it's funny but that's about it.

10. "Design Star" last summer on HGTV!

I couldn't stand any of the others.

11. I experience reality by spending time in the middle of it, not by watching it on TV.

But that's just me. I'm not telling anyone else what to do or not do.

12. I confess! I watch Survivor. It's the only reality show I watch, but

I'm hooked.
