Hey NBC
I saw your comment about this having bombed, which I disagree with. :) So I am bumping it ! ;D
Personally I think there is nothing more unreal than reality shows, so I can't rate them as I have watched enough of them to say. I suspect my marks would be sort of low however.
Now I am off to your other Movie rating thread ! :)
PS Where are YOUR ratings ? 8)

Aww, Fuss you are so sweet. :-*
I pretty much suspected that most reality shows deserve quite low ratings but I was interested to see if anyone on these boards liked them. There must be an audience for them since reality shows seem to multiply rather than go away. Honestly, I have gotten sucked into some of them because these people can make such a fool of themselves on these shows. Makes for a good laugh when there is nothing else on TV.
My ratings:
Big Brother 2.75 Okay, I actually watch this one. :-[
Performing As.... 2
American Idol 2.75
Amazing Race 3.5 I like this one. Wouldn't mind being a part of this show.
Survivor 4.5 I like this one also
The Osbournes 2.5 Only because they are such an odd family. They dare to be real. ;)
Fear Factor 2 The highlight of this show is watching them consume all those weird, disgusting critters. ;D
Paradise Hotel 1 This one is pretty bad
The Bachelor 1 Another pretty bad one
For Love or Money -0 Really, really bad. Of course, the person will go for the money. Duh!!!
The Mole 3 I think this one is quite original
Anything For Love 1
Temptation Island -0 Temptation, Paradise...all the same to me.
