    is there anything Reality TV has not done?

    it seems like there is a Reality TV show on just about everything. We have the dating shows like The Bachelor, we have the competition shows like Survivor, we have the "fish out of water" shows like A Simple Life and soon there will be one about Amish girls, we have the "help a person get a life" like Todd TV, We have Big Brother, we have the music talent shows like American Idol, we have the wacky situations like the upcoming My Big Fat Annoying Fiance.

    What's next for reality TV? Will it ever end?
    'There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"

    I don't think anybody has ever died on one of those shows. Nor do they highlight crimes, so "Bank Robbery USA" might be next season's breakaway reality hit.

          I would like to see someone making the show "Death Row". The competitors are surprisingly enough prisoners in death row. At the end of every episode, they vote out one competitor, who will be executed. The one who won the competition of the day gets to choose the method. The last competitor left will be released as a free man

            Combat, NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't go ruining "Death Row" PLEASE!

            It's supposed to be a new sport, where two death row inmates take it to the hall way, while everyone else is in their cages looking, and these two fight to the death. Then the winner gets something like money to buy something in his cell, something nice.

            This way, it's cheaper too, when there needs to be no exectutions. Just put the camera rolling and watch the masses of people tuning in!

                Has anyone seen the ad for the new Reality Show "Mad Mad House". That looks creepy!

                    Wasn't there talk of doing a politics version of American Idol where constestants would compete to be a Presidential candidate?

                        I would much rather have that than the sideshow we have now.

                          Probably not. They're incredibly cheap to make (no actors with bloated egos to pay), cater to the lowest common denominator (think Springer on steroids), and are the perfect shows for brain-dead, stupefied Americans.

                          Onward and upward.

                            Excellent analysis.

                              That's what I was afraid of.
