Not what you might think. Long hours, no pay.
And if you don't live in the LA area, forget it.

Its not real? I'm crushed! I thought it would all be taped in about 30
minutes.

I've watched a few episodes of some of the reality shows and they can be
entertaining and even slightly educational showing a slice of like we
are not aware of. Some are so horribly scripted they have no value at all.

In my life I never knew about ice roads or that there is an alligator
hunting season. Watching a couple of episodes is interesting if you
ignore the drama created by the producers. Moonshiners is still on
after a couple of years. I cannot imagine these guys are still hiding
in the woods and the law can't find them after 3 seasons of TV.

Thank you. That restores my faith in humanity.

My paternal grandmother (who called it wrasslin') thought it was real
because she trusted the television.

The only reality show that I've really enjoyed was Bait Car. They used
to have it on in the break room at my old job.

I've surfed into it from time to time. It's so obviously a trap, I
can't believe those people fall for it. OTOH, if they were smart,
they'd be brain surgeons rather than car thieves.

I liked that show. Prisons are filled with dumbass criminals. The
smart criminals are still free.

This is one of Bryan's classic symptoms of his Narcissistic Personalitry Disorder. Form: "The ONLY one I like...", implicitly "I'm too good for most things, but not this ONE as defined by ME"! Then he disavows any personal responsibility of personally CHOOSING to watch it saying "It was just on on the break room"!!

Bryan, your neurosis is too easy to diagnose!! Get therapy please.

Bah. The only reality show that I've really enjoyed is Alaska the Last
Frontier. You're just making shit up about Bryan's mental health.

I found the Ice Road Truckers show to be interesting because it taught me
things that I didn't know but it quickly became repetitive.

I also liked a black guy who was on Chopped and has since been on many other
cooking shows. He managed to make wonderful things out of pretty much
anything. He said he came from a very poor family in some other country
although I can't remember now which country that was. His creativity was
refreshing.

But what I find to be almost comical is when the judges on such shows rave
about some old technique as though it is new and has never been done before.
Like avocado pudding or crushing pork rinds to use as a breading. And there
is always that one judge who knows exactly what the weird ingredient is and
will tell us all about it.
