reality dating

Okay okay, I was watching the rock of love bus show today and it got me thinking about these reality shows. Of course, several questions popped into my mind 1) why the hell am i watching this? 2) why the hell does anyone watch this? 3) why do this girls keep killing each other for a date with that guy?

Well, it's no secret that some of the reality stars girls fight over are downright ugly, ridiculous, or just not worth all that drama. My first example is bret michaels, he's in many ways better than many other reality stars (anyone say flavor flav?) but he's not drop dead gorgeous. He's not in a really good shape anymore and he's getting kinda old. However my problem is mostly his hair, a flowing, increasingly silly wig. He admits to having fake hair but come on dude lol. However he is famous and a pretty cool guy (I mean, what girl wouldn't fall for a musician?) and the girls get a chance at fame and tv time.

Now, as for the "why watch this" question, I must say that there are several possible reasons.

• There are hot half naked girls getting drunk and doing silly things
• Its a pretty interesting thing to see, people doing ridiculous crazy things just for our entertainment
• Its impossible not to watch it
• Our brains have slowly rotted through previous crappy programing and now we'll take anything.

Well, I guess this is one of the great mysteries of mankind and we should just forget about it and go watch some tv.
