I KNOW there are people on my f-list who watch reality shows. Can't fool me, I know you are out there.

So I ask you, what shows do you like? Which ones do you hate? Which shows do you love to hate?

And Why?

Let's call it research.

(And it just occurs to me now - are there communities devoted to such things?)

Hrmm alrighty. American Idol. Mainly because I'm a singer and I know exactly what those kids are thinking/feeling. It's their shot at the dream and watching it lets me live vicariously through them.

So you think you can dance. I love watching people dance plain and simple. I don't care in what venue or avenue it just excites me. I actually find myself awestruck some times I just can't get over how they make their bodies work.

The Amazing Race.. Ohhh how I love this show. It's just sorta thrilling to see people scuttle around the world at break neck speed. It's one of those shows i could never do but I admire the fuck outta the people that do:P

Ohhhh America's next top model!! Love that show. I love the photoshoots the best, and the reveal of the pictures. I think it's cause I harbour delusions of being a model. So it's kinda cool to watch these girls actually do it. I guess it's all about dream chasing for me. I just adore seeing others do it, cause I'm too chicken to do it myself.

And then I watch a bunch of reality based shows on Mtv.. They aren't competitions, more following people around in their day to day lives. I'm just a voyeur at heart I suppose. I enjoy watching other people doing stuff i don't do..

I hate the bachelor type shows. It's just antiquated and stupid. It never actually works out as planned so I have no earthly idea why they still produce the damn show..

I could go on ad nauseum. I'll stop now;P
