Down with reality TV - Part 1
Anyone that knows me knows that I hate reality TV. When I say hate I mean it irritates me and makes me mad. I find it mind numbing and an insult to my intelligence. I think it is awkward and uncomfortable. I don't understand why anyone would want to watch real life. We watch TV to be entertained, how can we be entertained by watching other people struggle, act stupid, yell at each other or have their insecurities magnified in front of milions. Many times reality TV relies on playing on people's fears or personality differences to boost ratings. The problem is that it's not really reality. People get an image that they have to uphold so even if they don't want to act a certain way, they have to because they're supposed to be that way. Some will say to me that all movies are made up and staged. Wow! Thanks for the update. Of course movies are staged and made up, that's what makes them fiction. When I watch a movie, they tell me it's fiction and I watch it and it's fiction. The stupid thing about reality TV is that they say it's real but its not. Do they really think I'm so dumb that I don't realize that they are going off a script. It irritates me just thinking about it. Here's a news flash...REALITY TV ISN'T REAL.
Anyways here's an article that gave me some light at the end of the tunnel.
I have more to say but I'll leave it for another post...stay tuned.
