My God, NBC has the stupidest shows lined up for the summer

[bluestateguy]

Have a look. Talk about dumbing down television. And then they wonder why they are getting their asses kicked in the ratings.

Have a look. What an embarassment: http://www.nbc.com/Summer/

Wait! I know what to do! Let's cancel "American Dreams"! Oh yes, that'll fix things.

[Hissyspit]

1. Jeeeez... That have hit rock bottom. n/t

[mark414]

2. damn...they all look terrible

every single one a reality show. i fucking hate reality shows.

[ogradda]

3. I don't like reality shows either.

Pretty boring to me.

[tjwmason]

6. Are your reaLity shows as bad as ours?

As in - having nothing to do with reaLity.

They are designed to create tension and confLict between the peopLe taking part. ReaL reaLity wouLd just be too boring, but too many peopLe Like to Look down their noses at others and Laugh at them.

ReaLity T.V. to my mind is simuLtaneousLy boring and saddening.

17. you hit the nail on the head sir

i think since the fad started, i have watched a grand total of 30 minutes combined of every reality show, ever.

just when you thought american popular culture couldn't get any dumber...along come reality shows

boring and saddening do not even start to describe how terrible these things are, but they are a step in the right direction

4. If I did not KNOW better, I would swear that was a parody of a real

...summer lineup. It sure looks like one! But sadly, it is the real thing, and real--at least when dealing with TV programming--isn't always desireable, we learn!

[TreasonousBastard]

5. Well, they got one right...

"The Biggest Loser"

[Maestro]

7. Tommy Lee

goes to college. My gawd is he that desperate for attention and is NBC that desperate for ratings? Also, what the heck is this, "Want to be a Hilton?" Is there no imagination left at NBC?

[MrScorpio]

8. This says it all

[Atlas Mugged]

10. "Season 2"????

Wow - I've never even heard of this tripe, and now it's 'Season 2'? I must...uh.....have a life! At last - proof that I am actually among the living!!!

[Archae]

9. NBC used to be "Nothing But Cosby"

Now it's "Nothing But Crap." :mad:

[Enraged_Ape]

11. Suddenly "Pink Lady and Jeff" and "Supertrain" don't seem so bad

"Tommy Lee Goes to College"? WTF? Can this be for real?

Looks like NBC is trying to go back to their heyday of the late '70s.

[Jara sang]

12. Yes those are all horrible

Will we be forever plagued with reality T.V.?

[Enraged_Ape]

14. I remember when TV was nothing but westerns and cop shows

Don't worry, the pendulum will swing the other way. But it can't happen soon enough.

[GOPBasher]

13. Do they believe in anything besides reality TV?

:shrug:

[richmwill]

15. Bring back Uncle Floyd!

(For all of you old-timers who remember it). I guarantee it'd be funnier and get higher ratings than any of that summer tripe.

[terrya]

16. How to be like Paris Hilton

American culture has officially gone as low as it can.

[graywarrior]

18. Only thing missing is Vanilla Ice being an asshole.

Oh wait, MTV already did that.

[Moochy]

19. Sex & Violence

How can they compete with the sex and whatnot on Fox!!

case & point :

[ghostsofgiants]

21. That's wrong on so many levels

But absolutely brilliant at the same time.

[ghostsofgiants]

20. Sweet zombie jesus

I'm glad I don't watch NBC.
