What's your favorite reality show?

stoneycakes · May 2014

I don't generally like reality shows, but I LOVE Shark Tank. And I used to like Hell's Kitchen a lot in the first few seasons, but then it became really contrived and I stopped watching it.

stoneycakes · May 2014

I don't get the Bachelor love. It's sooooo popular, though.

stoneycakes · May 2014

^^^Maybe I should post that in the UO thread.

stoneycakes · May 2014

^^^Hat trick!

I want to like Shark Tank. I just don't. I also hate reality TV that's all about creating drama. I love Survivor because I love watching people be these expert social manipulators (something that I suck at). Big Brother had potential for being like that, but then it ended up being a bunch of pretty people bitching in hammocks. I really like "expert" reality shows too. Like Top Chef, Project Runway, etc.

LLOL!

mrshudson618 · May 2014

Face Off is my current favorite, but I watch project runway and shark tank too.

Master Chef Junior was the cutest thing ever.

JEPES1348 · May 2014

I also don't like reality shows, but DH and I love Biggest Loser, for whatever reason.

stoneycakes · May 2014

Who remembers The Real World?

beccaxrad · May 2014

I like ink master a lot!

TJ1979 · May 2014

I like project runway, master chef, top chef. MH is super into all those gold shows, and I will admit to getting sucked into them while they're on. But I would never actively look for them to watch.

stoneycakes · May 2014

Did any of you ever watch Joe Schmo? It was about a guy who thought he was on a reality TV show, but everyone else was scripted so it was set up to see how he would react. He was such a nice guy. It was a really funny show.

ETA: They had other seasons, but I only watched the first one.

Mandmeesh · May 2014

we don't watch any reality TV.

Chichigo · May 2014

I blame the Real World for the whole reality TV thing.

I really like The Little Copule. I also watch the family that shall not be named that is on before The Little Couple.

What are you doing in this thread, then?

CLLDLL · May 2014

I watched Am. Idol for a handful of seasons, but don't watch anymore. I like the cooking shows like Next Food Network Star and Beat Bobby Flay. That's about it other than a random Teen Mom or Whale Wars re-run.

I like Hoarders and wedding related reality shows. I'll pretty much watch anything from TLC.

I do like Hoarders…on netflix streaming.

I love that show-it always gets me into a deep cleaning mode

LOL. I have the opposite reaction. I'm like "I don't have to clean this place at all. It looks amazing to me now."

good point. great, now everyone will think my house is disgusting. lol

I think what I was getting at was that the show makes me feel gross, so I get into a cleaning habit

(::okay, stop being so defensive. that's exactly what makes you look guilty::)

stoneycakes · May 2014

Aw. I loved old school Jon and Kate, too!

freezorburn · May 2014

I watched the first season of Joe Schmo. It got a lot of publicity in the Pittsburgh media because the guy was from there. It was fun watching his accent and mannerisms because the guy they chose is actually very typical of the region.

I didn't know there were more seasons!

Survivor is an occasional guilty pleasure. I actually knew a girl who was on it a few years ago, so I started watching the show and got hooked.

It's actually kind of hard to get US reality TV here. I like Dancing with the Stars if there's anyone interesting on it. Last fall I got sucked into a weekend marathon of Fish Tank Kings.

There's a show where they auction off abandoned storage units and people then turn around and try to sell the contents for profit? Can't remember what it's called but sometimes when it's on I find it oddly compelling.

stoneycakes · May 2014

Oh I used to watch Sister Wives, too. But then the last season started out really boring and I stopped.

nanabanana06 · May 2014

I don't really watch reality shows. I watch cooking stuff with SO. So things like Hells Kitchen, The Taste, and Master Chef. Other than that I will occasionally sit threw TLC's wedding stuff on Friday night.

Mandmeesh · May 2014

Hey, remember last week I said I hated smoothies? Well I made one this morning for me and M...and I still hate them. Lol

I must be. The ingredients were all fine, except I used frozen kale which made it all gritty. Ick

Yup. I was right. No self respecting smoothie maker would use frozen kale

Mandmeesh · May 2014

Lol. It was a superfood smoothie-kale spinach carrot OJ yogurt mixed berries banana. It was just okay. I subbed ricotta plus sugar for the yogurt ( I could not find plain whole fat yogurt at the store!!!) I drank some, froze the rest to eat it like ice cream.

stoneycakes · May 2014

I think it's best to start out with all fruit smoothies and work your way up to ones with greens. Unless it's a texture thing.

I always wanted to do an ask me anything - especially when bored at work - but then I'd want to DD cuz I wouldn't want it hanging around the internets. Plus I'd want to ask it back to everyone. Like I still don't know all the LO names...stoney...TJ...

@stringy813‌ M did like it!

and I was really doing it for the nutrition. I'm such a loser. Lol. And I bought a 30lb tub of spinach for some reason, thinking I'd finish it before it goes bad

Spinach for everyone!!!!

I was exaggerating, Stoney. Lol. It's one of those $6 tubs from the grocery store. Pretty big

And frozen kale was all I had, so I used it. Lol
