What's the deal with these shows? Nowadays
it seems as though mainstream television has
lost its' zest for originality. Television stations,
like TruTV,History Channel,MSNBC,Discovery
Channel and now Vanguard,have all decided that
"reality" TV is the way to go.And what's the
point of even calling these shows "Reality"? I
mean seriously,who's reality is this? The "Kar-
dashians"?Operation Repo?Southern Fried Stings?
All Worked Up?Kill It,Cook It,Eat It?Hardcore-
Pawn?Prison RAW?Bait Car? Lizard Lick Towing?
Are you f*****g kidding me? These shows are
aweful.These shows are fake.Whatever happened
to the good shows,like:
-World's Wildest Police Videos
-Modern Marvels
-Weapons At War
-Fight Quest
-Dateline:NBC To Catch a Predator
-Border Wars
-Forensic Files
There are more shows.These are but examples.But I
am serious about this. Why is it that people are so content
with watching "Reality TV",that isn't even reality? Those
horrendously bad shows " Keeping Up with The Kardashians"
and "American Idol" are contributing to the decline of our culture.
The word "pop-culture"really sums it up doesn't it? It's only
important to our culture if it's popular. Why does everything in
this country have to be a popularity contest? We're not highschool
students voting for the prom king and queen.The above listed channels
are also just examples. There used to be so much on TV,and now we
are left with this:
-American Dad
-Dancing with the Stars
-American Idol
-Kardashians
-Hitlers' Bodyguards
-WW2 History shows
-Hitlers' Germany
-Secrets of the Reich
-Hitler and the Occult
WTF is going on here? Why are there so many shows about that piece
of excrement-dictator?
