    I have an idea for a reality TV show.

    Monday morning the alarm clock goes off.
    guy groans, shuts off alarm, shakes wife, gets outta bed

    wife groans, gets outta bed.

    wife goes in kitchen to start breakfast, guy shaves and takes shower

    guy wakes up teenage son, son groans

    guy wakes up younger son, kid groans

    goes in kitchen to help wife with breakfast, wife heads to shower

    guy sets breakfast on table, goes to both son's rooms, teenage son sits up, dad leaves, son falls back in bed. dad turns back around turns on light pulls son off bed, son groans and heads to bathroom, younger son is up and playing video game, dad says to turn off and get ready for school. kid groans

    guy, wife and sons wolf down breakfast and head out to start the week.

    it is BORING, but hey, THAT IS REALITY, just the real work-a-day world that normal people have


    ok, this is a rant because this "so called Reality TV" craze is getting old and there is little real about it. I find these shows dull and borish.

    Trading Spouses is one that is so heavily edited that it doesn't portray the people as they really are, just as they should be to get ratings. One that comes to mind is the Abbott family (the California Taosist that went barefoot), they got screwed by Fox's heavy editing.

    Yep, that's right up there with Patton Oswald's idea for "America's Most Listless Loiterers". :) I agree with him though, I don't even want to watch 'reality' on tv, even if it could somehow convey a sense of reality. I want to watch tv to escape reality.

    There's a few I like, Growing Up Gotti (that Luigi's a trip), Family Plots (that Chuck's a trip), and Dirty Jobs (which may not be considered a true 'reality show' but Mike Rowe gets into more messes than Paris ever could). Oh, and Dog, if I ever have a bounty hunter come after me, I hope he's as cool as Dog.

    But you'll know when they start to run out of ideas, they'll start making reality shows about the making of reality shows.
