Day 05. A show you hate
Well, as I've been discussing with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
beccadg, I've gone right off Torchwood because of the way "Children of Earth" turned out.
While I do like some reality shows, usually the job related ones, I do hate the ones that involve competition, as for the most part they are so contrived. Like American Idol, sure it gives someone a chance of being a successful singer, but it is so managed, and IMO, they are then owned lock, stock and barrel by AI and forced to produce bland music. I do, however, enjoy watching the audition portions...just for the lulz.
Then again, it might also have something to do with the fact that I know I could easily find myself sucked in by such shows....as what happened with America's Next Top Model.
On the whole, though, there aren't any shows I can think of that will make me change the channel immediately because I hate it so much. Shows have more of a tendency to annoy me more than active hate. I don't care for most US sitcoms, finding them mostly just unfunny.
