Reality TV redux

I was thinking while in the shower this morning (and oddity in and of itself) that with the Hollywood writers’ strike now over, there might be some reduction in the number of reality shows. Which, as you might guess, is a good thing. An aside: There was a print ad a few years ago for a beer (I forget which watered-down swill) that had the line “Let’s get back to fake TV and real breasts.” Or something like that.

Anyway… I was thinking that maybe some reality shows needed to be combined to cut down the total number and shake things up a bit. I just thought of a few:

  • Gene Simmons Rock of Love Intervention: Gene Simmons prevents women from dating Bret Michaels. Let’s face it: he’s washed up and needs a career boost. Gene would be doing them a favor. Or maybe just doing them.
  • Scott Baio is 46 and in Celebrity Rehab: Might actually need a career jolt more than Bret Michaels.
  • The Biggest Dancing with the Loser Stars: The weight loss phenomenon goes dancing! Millions of saps will watch until they see the horror of the Michael Moore wardrobe malfunction. Hosted by Oprah!
