new crop of reality

Ok I'll admit it, I watch those cheesy reality shows. Amazing race is fun to watch people do crazy stuff, Its like taking your family member and adding pressure, Last night I caught the new season of Big Brother which is the bottom of the barrel for me. I'm a sucker for the Osbournes though thanks to Tivo I tend to ignore any scene with the daughter Kelly or the son Jack. I just like watching Ozzy bumble around. I really liked the Mole but I seem to have been the only one cause its gone. I do draw the line and don't watch fear factor cause of the gross factor, or any of the so called talent shows, I also avoid the strange dating shows (though I did happen to catch a few episodes of last season's the bachelor, but he was a local boy I couldn't help it).

I'm wondering what the fall will have in store - there doesnt seem to be a limit to what the networks will do to people or rather have people do for money. I'm usually shocked by what see on the shows now - I can't imagine them getting more outrageous but I'm sure they will.

(movable-type is cool but no spell check!)

Seems like there is a difference between reality shows like "The Osbournes" or "Real World", which are more like documentaries, and game reality shows, like "Survivor". I wonder if we will come up with different terms for the two.
