PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

Boo-Boo is right. It's a spin off from Toddlers & Tiara's that bizarre kid pageant circuit show. 
I should be watched....closely.

Wiki:
Reality television is a television programming genre that presents purportedly unscripted melodramatic or "humorous" situations, documents actual events, and usually features ordinary people instead of professional actors, sometimes in a contest or other situation where a prize is awarded.I put this in here because... I wasn't sure how to answer the question. We'll watch "Chopped" and "Iron Chef" and the home improvement shows. Some of these are really game shows (I think "Chopped" is, but so is "Survivor"), and some are magazines, like "Diners, Drive-In's and Dives". I've really thought Reality TV to be more like the Real World or that Bruce Jenner show or the Osbournes; and a Reality TV "Game" would be TAR, Survivor, and the Mole (sorry, just had to). But to name off Reality TV Shows I watch has always kind of been interesting for me because I'm not too sure what really qualifies. Right now, I have watched a couple Joe Schmo Eps, and DW watches "Biggest Loser" and I think there is one of the "Bachelor" type shows on right now she likes (and I sit and watch once in a while with her). We catch Restaurant Impossible once in a while, and the cooking/ food shows including the Food Trucks, etc. I'd love to see a real attempt to bring back the Mole. I also have wondered how to do something around youth sports, like Little League; or a youth Musical or something like that.

There are a lot of different sets to this, aren't there!Rachel Ray vs Guy is on new. I recognize few of the "celebrities". But I like the challenges. I watch a lot of Food Network: Iron Chef; Chopped; Restaurant Impossible; The Next Iron Chef; Top Chef (Masters was my favorite); Masterchef of course! Then there are all the Storage shows; one about transporting stuff too?
then the Pawn shows - DH watches Hardcore Pawn; I hate the people who go in there acting like a$$es just because the cameras are there (please tell me people would not act like that without knowing they were on camera, please). Then there is Chainsaw show;
the logging shows - I especially like the one down in LA where they go in the rivers to find the old old logs there; Can anyone say Quack Quack? Duck Dynasty - LOL

Duck Dynasty is hilarious speaking of that, what about Whisker Wars competitive beard contests.
I should be watched....closely.

LAST EDITED ON 01-14-13 AT 05:12 PM (EST)This is generally a dead zone for viewership -- movie studios use January as their dump month, and the networks are just catching on to the idea of not following that trend. There isn't that much out there in the genre right now. I've currently got Joe Schmo 3 and Shipping Wars. And until some more seasons premiere, that's about it. (Did you ever notice that for an entity supposed concerned with arts and entertainment, A&E goes to war more than the History Channel?) Other shows... I managed to get through fifteen minutes of Honey Boo-Boo before the residual buildup threatened to go terminal. I can't watch Dance Moms without wanting to kill every adult involved. Storage Wars is on hold while Joe gets Schmoed. I'll catch Chopped if nothing else is going against it, but I can't say the same for any other Food Network production. Double Divas should have been in my territory, but everything felt far too staged: pay no attention to that script being shuffled off-camera. Survivor and I are officially divorced until they change their casting ways. So in other words, permanently. For The Bachelor, see above plus I must be permitted to kick Chris Harrison in his testicles for twelve hours, not including meal breaks. However, I'll probably get back to DWTS now that they've openly admitted their All-Stars season was a horrible mistake. Idol gets two weeks to convince me it's no longer crap. They will fail. Biggest Loser will see me return when they drop the unnecessary weight -- one hour and fifteen twists. Beyond that -- waiting on Phil to hit the starting line and for Gordon, Joe, and Graham to reach the kitchen.

At the moment I am watching Storage Wars, although I do prefer Auction Hunters as they point out that 9/10 units are a bust and also do some more realistic pricing.Top Chef, although I am dubious about the way Tommy boy sets himself up as God Cake Boss, because it is just so bizarre - This week a contestant locked himself in his hotel room, refused to come out and still wasn't the worst performer Dual Survival. more for the feeling that if the cameras back off for too long Cody will have disappeared and Joe will be looking a lot less manic than any other reason now. Pawn Stars, because Chumley and the old man are cool, and the stories are sometimes interesting. Biggest Loser, wasn't going to watch it, and there is less than an half an hour show when all is said and done, but it dragged me back in.
I used to really enjoy the 1900 and 1940 house (and there was an American version set in pioneer times, but I forget its name). We had another one recently Turn Back Time: the Family, which was interesting but a bit more shallow.
And we also have The Supersizers Go... More BBC please!

Where are Voice of the Beehive when we need them?

We need an animated Reality Show. Simpsons vs Bobs Burgers, head to head.

Still watch and always PVR:
Survivor - Despite the casting, I still enjoy this show/game.
TAR - ditto
SYTYCD - this one might be my favourite. And I loved the Canadian editions, so it's not just an infatuation with Cat.  Occasionally watch:
- The Ultimate Fighter - I can't stand all the house drama, but do enjoy the fights/tournament. Ones I have dropped:
Bachelor/ette - I used to watch with DW and DD. They don't watch any longer, and neither do I.
DWTS - I never really got into this show, but did watch occasionally. But Julianne is gone now, right?
Apprentice - dropped this one ears ago. The celebs may have been interesting characters, but IMO killed the game aspect as it often seemed to come down to which one had friends with the deepest pockets.
Big Brother - watched one season years ago (with that guy named Evil or something like that?) and still haven't washed this show from my cache. Shows I miss:
Rock*Star - I really loved the two editions of this one. The performances and game aspect were very good. The prizes not-so-good.
Kid Nation - fun experiment. Not sure how repeatable. I have never watched any of the cooking shows, the Voice, AGT, ANTM, Biggest Loser, etc.

I don't watch any of the others either, but I do follow Storm Large on FB. I would really like to see her in concert. Despite all her image stuff, she actually seems quite down to earth and very hard working. Tough business.
