ANOTHER new reality show

**teenies*mom** · 01-25-2004, 01:20 PM

Just read in the paper.....

Wanted for an upcoming ABC-TV reality series:
families willing to trade mothers with each other for 10 days as cameras roll.
Tentatively titled: The Swap, the program is scheduled to air this summer. Producers are now looking for families composed of two parents with children.

I don't know, if Teenie wanted to trade me for 2 weeks with another mom, I might be a little hurt -
but maybe for a million dollars, I would only be hurt for a little while

anyway, it doesn't say if there is a prize or what it is!

Hubby and I don't like those reality shows. And the latest "The Simply Life" is about as mindless as TV can get. Our grandaughter was here one night and insisted on watching it. That stuff is so staged.....That's my story and I'm sticking to it

We watched that show "The Simple Life" a few times and I couldn't believe how stupid those girls were. I would have been embarrassed if that was my daughter, we watched the one where they didn't know what Wal-Mart was and the one girl says "Oh is that where they sell walls" - I don't care how rich you are, you can't tell me they never heard or even been in a Wal-Mart.

The only reality show that I like now is Big Brother. I use to watch Survivor all the time but it just doesn't seem the same anymore.

We watch Survivor but this past season I thought it was in really bad taste where they let that one guy lie about his grandmother dying in order to win a stunt.....
I never had grandparents when I was growing up, they had all passed away so I take "grandparents" very serious and get upset when people talk "down" about their grandparents...
to this day, I still wish I would have been able to know just one of mine.....
So that turned me off against that show now.

Do not care for any of the "reality shows" on the idiot tube. Seems like all there is now are those, talk shows, and court/judge shows.

i hate reality television. but my five year old really wanted to watch that celebrity island (i called it "hasbens need a job") so we watched it. it was o.k.

than curiosity got me to watch the one where every one knew it was fake but one guy. i didn't catch the end though so i guess i'll never know what happened to the poor guy in the end.

I usually don't watch em. but I was watching the Apprentice.. well, i saw the first one any how.. then I started watching that fat, stupid, dumb, obnoxious wedding. .. Or whatever its called. That guy just cracks me up...

**NINK** · 01-25-2004, 07:29 PM

i actualy watched that fat wedding guy too, our upstairs tv likes to just turn it's self off when it's cold, so my hubby had turned the tv on to warm up so we would be able to watch it that night, so i was taking a shower and went in the bedroom and that's what was on, i didn't catch the exact beginning but close. i wonder if that woman will get her money in the end.

I confess...My name is Kelsey and I am hooked on reality TV. I am an intelligent, well educated woman and I love this stuff.

My favs are Survivor (one week until Survivor A.S.S.), the Apprentice, Amazing Race, and The Mole (not the celebrity one.)

lol, these things are like the tabloids of the tv world, you see all those people speed reading the tabloids at the check out aisle pretending they could care less.
