Another perspective regarding "reality TV" shows was presented on a radio program that I was listening to a few weeks earlier: Networks make a lot of money whey they are able to sell their shows to other companies for the purpose of running them as re-runs. Since we all know the outcomes of the reality TV shows, they will never make it to the re-run market - so, networks will not be able to cash in one their success.

who woulda guessed it, reality tv is worthless, well, go watch some good documentary, examples:

Dark Days
Hearts and Minds
Koyaanisqatsi
Manufacturing Consent
Crumb

each movie about 100X more productive and thought provoking than "reality TV"

You consider ALIAS a quality show???

yes definetly. esp last season. i watched it from the start like 24 it would be kinda hard to jump in half way.


luckily i start recording shows with potential even though i might not start watchingntil enough good reviews are out

I still think that Monster Garage and Junkyard Wars are pretty cool. Would those be considered reality TV?

Indeed they are completely crap... but why do they still air it? Because a lot of people still like to watch them... so why do a lot of people watch them? because they are bored out of their skulls (or they are too lazy to do something else)

In conclusion: GET YOUR FAT A§§E§ UP AND DO SOMETHING!!!

My rant of the day

No, it would be boring as hell! What are we doing to do, watch him play with AutoCAD and fill out paperwork for pointy-haired bosses all day? It would be like watching a Dilbert cartoon in slow-motion.

Besides, most engineers nowadays don't create anything original. Instead, they take an existing product, and make it slightly smaller and cheaper. Then they add a new clock, cover it in silver paint, add some blue LED's to it, and then let the marketing team tell everyone that it is "ALL NEW!"
