The problem with the 64K was the contestant didn't keep his mouth shut. I think the fix is in on most of those because they can manufacture ratings but they're cagier about it now and limit their exposure.I already said it was interesting. Back off!!!
I'm guessing shows are pretty careful about stuff like that now, though I swear, some of the Jeopardy contestants must have some idea of what subjects to study!
Here's what I don't get, who cares? Think reality shows are not rigged and scripted. A client of mine's son was the lead cameraman for the first Amazing Race and said it was totally scripted and who can blame them, the majority of the human race is just flat boring. Think bored boring people want to sit at home and watch boring people?
When it comes to anything on TV, I am pretty much a cynic and skeptic and I don't watch much of it and no "reality" shows. When I am shipwrecked with some total strangers and get to vote them off the island and get their food and women, I'll consider it. The only thing worse than watching that crap is being around people discussing them. I was in line at the store and these two women were discussing that Bachelor deal with him doing the chick wrong and I thought to myself 'Egads, is this what the human race is becoming? Damn, shut up and let me read my National Inquirer in peace'.
