Thumbs up Reality shows: Thumbs up or down?

I know they are a little cheesy, however they are the only thing I watch on TV besides the news or news shows, like Dateline.

The only "reality show" I have watched was Temptation Island and I will admit that I saw every episode!

I couldn't help it though, it was like driving past a bad accident on the freeway...you don't WANT to look but you just can't help it!

Sorry - I can't stand "reality" t.v. The cheese factor is way too high. When some of my friends forced me to watch Survivor one night at their house, the only redeeming quality I ever saw was Colby. He was hot. Other than that, I find reality t.v. boring. I just don't get the attraction.

I don't like any of them except Survivor. I don't know how that one can suck me in so much! The others just look horrible. Like Boot Camp? Ugh! But, did anyone see the final? I never really watched it, but saw way too many commercials for it and was wondering if the girl or the guy won in the end?

Can't stand reality TV.
Mostly because I can't believe these people are this _____(fill in the blank with words like stupid, ignorant, etc.).
I don't watch much TV anyways: M*A*S*H re-runs, That 70's Show!, and The Simpsons are the only shows I watch regularly.

Although, whenever I run across episodes of Real World (new or old) I just have to watch them.

I watched both Survivors, but I only enjoyed the 2nd one because I had to watch Amber.

Didn't really care for the Mole and Big Brother too much.

At first I had my reservations about watching Temptation Island, but watching it was addicting. I enjoyed Boot Camp too.

RW/RR was never really appealing to me until it got to Hawaii, but after Hawaii it just went downhill.

Making the Band was a joke b/c those guys just can't sing...but I enjoyed watching Popstars...because I think those girls rock!

Hooked, hooked, hooked! Like line and sinker hooked!

I love reality tv (well most of them anyway....didn't care for Boot Camp or Big Brother too much). I am anxiously waiting for the next installments of Survivor, Temptation Island and The Mole!

And I wish Colby could go on Survivor again....he is sooooooooo hot!

The only reality shows I watch are Real World and Road Rules. Ok, and I did watch every episode of Temptation Island (it was so addictive) Other than that I can't stand reality tv. Fictional shows are so much better.

Thumbs way up...

I LOVE Survivor (fave show!) and Temptation Island. Big Brother was OK too...but I never catched the Mole, Bootcamp (heard it sucked).

For me--it's just fun to watch real people, rather than all those Hollywood actors/actresses who have all been "enhanced" in some way. Not saying that in reality shows they don't make the characters seem more polished/perfect, but it just seems that they are more "real."

I can't stand "reality TV". In my book, it's nothing but trash.
