Reality TV Sinks Even Further

Jim Raynor · Post by **Jim Raynor** » 2003-01-21 08:32pm

You guys think Joe Millionaire is bad? I just saw a commercial for another show called Married By America, premiering on Fox this coming March. Basically, a bunch of men and women come together, all complete strangers, and the viewers play matchmaker by calling in to vote for who they think should tie the knot. The commercial goes like "So Don't Screw Up America, Divorce is Expensive." What kind of sick crap is this? Now instead of one high profile TV marriage destined for divorce, we're gonna end up with a few dozen failed TV marriages.

I made the horrible, horrible mistake of not turning off American Idol as soon as it came on. Jesus Christ, these people are whiners. They forget their lyrics, they're tone deaf, they're noise pollution in bad pants. So of course, when the judges, who all GOT FILTHY RICH in the music industry, tell them they suck, what do they do? They bitch and piss and moan to the camera about how unfair those big meanies are. How the fuck does this shit get the ratings it does?

The punishment for these people should be public flogging, hopefully to set an example so others will not follow, but they'll still produce this shit.

Certianly be more entertaining, and we could do as the romans did and use it for execution of dangerous convicts without the wait!...

I have recently upgraded the Ever-Victorious Army into the Ever-Victorius Grand Army, adding a truck and two pistols. I have waited for a grand calling, a crusade of sorts, to pursue with righteous ignomity the horrible deaths of those who may or may not be innocent.

Gentlemen, I have found my crusade.

Just when you think TV can't sink any lower, the FOX network suprises you.

Finally, something we can agree on, eh Enforcer?

So how long do you figure before they start broadcasting prison violence (Rapes, gang knifings) on Fox.

Enforcer Talen · Post by **Enforcer Talen** » 2003-01-21 09:00pm

personally, I'd watch to see the judges flame, not for the acting.

"you sound like mickey mouse on helium."

it doesnt get any better then that.

nonono, that would be wrong - the prison peeps didnt sign up for violence.

It's amazing what you can pull out your ass. Any new show on FOX, for example.

And I don't think they need to depict rapings on FOX. After watching "Man vs. Beast", or "Married by America", I'd rather be assraped myself.

Thread's been done about a week ago but yeah, it is another pile of shit dropped by fox.

Grand Theft Auto said it best, "Liberty City Survivor. Where the fun comes home."

Screw it all, just toss em some standard issue gear and send them after each other. I promise you the highest reviews in recorded history,

What about a Soviet Union version of Survivor, where we follow the lives of various Gulag inmates??
