Trash Television

Rissask · 03-04-2008

What are your favourite trashy shows?

I like The Real Housewives of Orange County and America's Next Top Model. Both hideously, outrageously trashy.

Anyone else have any?

Anyone else wanna dish about Housewives? My goodness, but they're dumb.

we tried to watch Gordon Ramsey's restaurant makeover show last night on the Food Network...every other word out of his mouth was the F bomb. And no bleeping. I had to change the channel after ten minutes, it was just too much.

I LOVE the competition of top designers. And American Idol, of course. And the program where the Aussie cute chef picks you in the supermarket and comes at your house to cook for a special dinner.

I'm also a Housewives watcher. But sometimes, it just makes me ill thinking they have no concept of 'real life'. Especially the kids who throw tantrums about BWM's!!

Er...I also watch Rock of Love with Bret Michaels. It's a train wreck...are these women for real?

More 'quality' reality shows that I like are Jon and Kate, Plus 8 as well as Little People, Big World.

We have been watching the Apprentice. I only watch to see if someone will throw Omarosa off of a building.

That is a great show.

Makes me wonder why people would ever go on it though.

that's what makes me crazy... they already KNOW the questions they're going to be asked... they know how they answered... all they can do is hurt people with the answers... why do it in that kind of showcase? it's like jerry springer for money

oh wait

maybe I just answered my own question

Most TV seems kinda trashy to me these days.

So I can't tell the difference. Is Biggest Loser Trash TV? If so, it's the only reality thing I watch. Other than that, it's Lost, and House, and Heroes if/when they're on. Oh, and sometimes I watch What Not to Wear and Ten Years Younger, but those aren't trash either... are they?

Can Dr Phil be considered Trash Television? If so, he's on my list.

We don't get some of these shows.
But I have seen bits of that Bret Michaels show....makes you cringe doesn't it? Ew he is just so....grody. Like, gag me with a spoon.

Omarosa is on the Apprentice again? I haven't watched that since the first season. Trump's hair gives me the willies.

I know 'Housewives of Orange County' is awful and they are the most shallow and materialistic biatches around...but I still love it!
I do like Gina, she at least seems to have some brains (although not enough to keep her kids in line, unfortunately) I hope she finds a new man who treats her better than her loser husband did.
I miss Jo. She was dim as they come but sort of sweet in her own little bubbleheaded way. Her man was HOT.

I think you also answered your own question!

It's pretty much all trash, yup.

I don't know why but I never watch hour-long dramas anymore, ever.

I hate serial shows now.

I do like Gina too. She is the most down to earth of all of them. I have a hard time watching Vicky when she comes on the screen. Especially when she is a hootin and hollerin!! Uggh! And I just feel plain sorry for Quinn. Billy just wants a piece of her and nothing more. She really wants to be married.
