I've been fed up for atleast 2 years. Tehy were a nice novelty, but it looks like TV channels wil lhave to actually start paying actors i nthe near future. So much for that great business model....

http://www.cnn.com/2005/SHOWBIZ/TV/09/12/tvseason.appoll.ap/index.html

Cliffs from link. Poll reslut type stuff:
[*]Four out of five Americans say they think too many reality shows are on the air
[*]a total of 82 percent said the shows are either "totally made up" or "mostly distorted."

Other TV poll things:
[*]alf of Americans believe there are too many crime shows on television.

Bring on The Simpsons!

The only shows they have on that list I like are The Apprentice and COPS. The rest I can't wait to see the end of.

I also like Cops alot but I wish they would go to NYC...not sure if they ever did. Too much Texas, Florida and the occasional Las Vegas episodes. There are plenty of rotten 'hoods in NYC!

I watched the first seasons of both Survivor and Big Brother. Absolutely none since. Thank God they're gonna start to dump this crap.

I think it will about 2 years before the death of reality shows.

Some good ones are The Amazing Race, The Apprentice, and some others that I don't know of.

All the ones fox did, people should lose jobs over those.

I thouroughly enjoy Rockstar INXS. I don't like any other reality TV shows.

I like all of the CSI variants and Cops and I watch Animal Precinct on Animal Planet occasionally.
