Reality TV

It appears the end might be near for the Kardashian fun fest.  After all the hullabaloo with that wedding and for it to be over after 72 days, I think the public are starting to get a little wise.  There's an actual petition online to get the Kardashians off the air and I think about 95,000+ have signed it so far.  I also saw an article online with the headling "Why do talentless celebrities become stinking rich."  Because people watch them on tv, that's why.  People sit on their couch and watch other people live their lives.  That's pretty pathetic.  Ok, I'll be honest, I've watched some of these shows.  I even got sucked into Jersey Shore at one point only because it was so unbelievable what I was watching these "characters" do.  And these same characters have made alot of money.  I remember watching a few episodes of The Hills as well and those characters looked like they were in a coma compared to those on Jersey Shore. 

So a boycott of the Kardashians may ensue but we should really boycott alot of these reality shows.  There are a few that you might actually learn something from, like Million Dollar Listing.  That show could give one a glimpse of the real estate market and the negotiations involved, which is always interesting.  On Donald Trump's Celebrity Apprentice, you could learn a few business theories, if you listen carefully.  But outside of that, watching others get drunk, fight, piss and whine about silly things is a waste of time and we should all get off the couch and go live our own lives.
