I am not a big fan of reality TV shows. I empathize too much with people in supposedly "real" situations. "Survivor" and "American Idol" are neat to watch I hear, but I've never gotten into them. Some, like "Temptation Island" and "The Bachelor," are just plain ridiculous and are akin to Jerry Springer. Again, my opinion only, I do not mean to insult anyone who likes these shows.
"The Surreal Life" was one I did not watch, simply because I didn't really care for any of the has-been stars on it. Tonight I saw the previews for next season of "The Surreal Life." Among, the "stars" will be Mascara Queen Tammy Faye Baker, Talentless rapper Vanilla Ice, Lovable Loser Gary Coleman, and Hairy Straight Porn Star Ron Jeremy. Not that I'm a fan of any of them (although I admit I've probably seen more of Ron Jeremy's work than any of the others), it may actually be a bizarre enough mix to entice me to watch. The idea of a head to head between Ron and Tammy Faye could be quite messy.
