Reality is Dead this Summer
Kim Reis
Sorry that it’s been so long since I’ve written. Reality TV really hasn’t been all that inspiring this summer. I know, I know. Everyone keeps telling me - “What’s more of a reality than the Olympics??!!“ But I don’t know, I’m just not into it. I like the reality TV with the crazy people acting like idiots, trying to become famous. I watched a little bit of the Olympics and they really are amazing athletes. But I can only watch for so long and then my ADD gets the best of me. I was watching one day when a girl running the hurdles misstepped and fell on her head. I know this sounds awful, but I laughed. And then they kept showing the replay over and over. And I kept laughing. I’m the person who laughs when someone falls and I’m not sure why. It’s horrible! I try to control it and can’t help it. I felt so bad for her and yet, I kept laughing. Oh well. What’re ya gonna do?
The only show that I have kept up with is Big Brother 10. Michelle (the real estate agent from RI) is doing pretty well. A few weeks ago, she lost it when she found out she had to wear a red, skin-tight leotard for a week and I was afraid she put a huge nail in her coffin. But so far, she has redeemed herself.
The showmance between April & Ollie is over. April went buh-bye. So dumb!!! Showmances kill ya every time. But Ollie is such a GREAT GUY!!!! I hope he does well.
The show ended last night with the remaining contestants swinging on a vine, suspended in mid-air. Who ever can last the longest will become Head of Household. When the show ended, the vines started swinging and started banging them into a soft wall. OUCH! Can’t wait to see who becomes HOH. This will really disrupt the entire house.
I watched a few episodes of The Mole. Didn’t do much for me. I have the final episode on my TiVo. Wonder who the Mole was?
I cannot WAIT for America’s Got Talent to come back on. And - Biggest Loser starts in 9/16!!!!
