Shows

What is it with reality shows lately?  I don't know how, or when, but they totally took over the television network.  Since they debuted nearly a decade ago (or is it longer than that?  I'm not really sure), the ideas for them have gotten stupider and stupider.  I have been reading tons of articles about new concepts and I have to say, they are hitting new lows.  There was one where city girls tried to win the heart of a true countryman.  I don't know what they were thinking, because really, if I lived in the city, I would definitely not want to go for a guy who makes me work, especially in a field.  Celebs like Paris Hilton and Brody Jenner (who both have had reality shows before) are making new reality shows for new best friends.  I'm sorry, but if you have to have a reality show for a new best friend, you are doing something wrong.  Don't get me wrong, some of them are really alluring.  I love shows like What Not to Wear (because who wouldn't want to have a $5,000 shopping spree and a cool makeover?) and Trading Spaces, where you learn cool cheap ideas for renovating rooms (not that I've ever put them to use or anything).  Even shows like Hell's Kitchen on Fox are pretty entertaining, where a ruthless chef tries to find a head honcho for a new restaurant of his.  Beauty and the Geek is pretty funny too, where ditzy girls team up with brainiac guys to complete tasks.  Who will ever forget Richard of season 1, a guy so geeky that he seemed unreal?  I even sometimes get pulled into shows where they dance and sing, both of which sound completely awful in theory.  Actually, now that I think about it, I watch a lot of reality shows.  Why are they taking over the television networks???  I prefer shows with decent plot lines, like The Office.  I love The Office.  I'm pretty sure everyone loves that show.  Me and my sister have like this inseparable bond because of The Office, not that there wasn't one before or anything.  For that, I am totally putting in one of my favorite clips from that show.
