Comments on: why do we even bother watching? http://www.lovebostongirl.com/2007/09/25/why-do-we-even-bother-watching/ Tue, 21 Jun 2011 19:32:10 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.3 By: Susie http://www.lovebostongirl.com/2007/09/25/why-do-we-even-bother-watching/comment-page-1/#comment-188 Susie Thu, 27 Sep 2007 04:58:00 +0000 http://lovebostongirl.com/?p=173#comment-188 I know what you're both saying. I don't think we should reward people who suck or praise mediocracy. That's why I think you should get cut off shows where talent is needed. But if the show is about improvement, they should give them some time to improve. <br/><br/>I know, I know, it's entertainment. And it works on me because I watch it. It just made me sad when the little Asian guy with the bow-tie got kicked off Beauty and the Geek. He didn't have a chance :( I know what you’re both saying.

It's unfair, but neccesary. I feel you on what your saying.

They're competition shows. If you lose, you're out, just like any sport or competition. <br/><br/>The guy on the Pick-up Artist was hopeless. We're helping out the gene pool by not giving him the tools necessary to breed and create a new generation. That's helping out all of mankind.<br/><br/>Seriously, though, we all know VH-1 and ABC are not doing anything to better humanity with these shows. Everyone complains about reality TV, but they all watch it. I'm not complaining. I know the shows are vapid, pointless wastes of my valuable time. That's why I love them. I also like to see people cry when they lose. That's what I'm always hoping to see. So we should reward people who suck? They’re competition shows.
