    Two words - Kim Kardashian

    She's famous for a couple other reasons then reality tv. Helps her dad was once considered the top athlete in the world.

    Then it doesn't hurt that she's smoking hot.

    Wasn't her dad OJ's lawyer?

    Yes. He thinks her father is Bruce Jenner. Duh!

    their father was Robert Kardashian, the famous lawyer for OJ simpson. Bruce Jenner is their stepfather

    As you may or may not already know, TLC is going to air a show called "Here comes Honey Boo Boo" about that annoying obnoxious 4 year old "beauty queen" The show will not only feature her, but her entire dysfunctional inbred looking family as well. As an american I am embarrassed for this show to come out. I thought Operation Repo and Lizzard Lick Towing were bad enough, but this one really pushes me over the edge. I'm really starting to see why people hate us soo much.

    If I ever see honey boo boo child on the streets I will punch her in the face.

    Step 1: Get rid of cable TV
    (if step 1 is unattainable go to step 1a)
    Step 1a: change channel
    Step 2: go outside for a walk

    All these exploited children with parents grasping for their 15 minutes of fame. There is no reality TV worth watching. No wonder our children say they want to grow up and be famous. Famous at what you may ask? Why, just famous! Ridiculous!

    Don't blame reality tv, blame Andy Warhol.

    I blame Marcel Duchamp.

    I love Lizzard Lick Towing. Don't hate.


    Its not as bad as operation repo, buts its still horse *kitten*.

    Or "Repo Games"? If someone came and started yanking my chain like that over my car, I'd probably end up in jail.

    I'm going to do step one eventually, but it will be a process. I will start by dropping my channels down to about 200, then 100, then 50, then 20, then 10...until there is only one channel to watch at which point I will get bored and stop watching all together.

    I watch Doctor Who, Through the Wormhole, and (currently) the Summer Olympics. I can't watch reality TV. For one thing, it's not reality. I honestly do not understand the appeal. I visited a friend's house, and she was watching a show called Bridalplasty (sp?), in which the women were competing for plastic surgery prior to their wedding. It was disgusting, and they voted off a breast cancer survivor, who only wanted to have a reconstructive surgery, because she was "too much of a threat". Why do people watch things like this?

    yep, every season, more drivel. i have to change the channel every time i see that stupid honey boo boo promo. There's a bunch that I think are ridiculous, like 4 weddings. to change your wedding day into a competition to be judged, is awful. where should the focus be? it should be called "how to cheapen a sentiment".

    Simple solution so it never happens- pay the bills. Not going to lie I watch Lizard Lick and like it. If those people paid the bills in the first place the show wouldn't exist. So if those people started to actually do what they were supposed to then reality T.V. would go down in someways. But then again people will sell themselves out for money. If you don't like it don't watch it :)

    I'm honestly surprised TLC took up such a concept. Then again they have shows like the Virgin Diaries and Strange Sex.

    I can't see this show staying on the air that long, but I said the same thing about Survivor when it first started running when I was a kid. It's not entertainment, it's publicly humiliating this child and she's going to have to deal with the consequences of possibly peers at school calling her names and other things as she ages. Course that's assuming she'll grow up and gain common sense.

    Her mother reminds me of a woman I once knew and her offspring all are following her stupid ways.

    That show's my weekly rant. I watch it just to yell at everything. Then again I'm an angry person, I don't tolerate a lot from children, and stupid people make me wish there wasn't such a thing as an assault charge.

    It's been a sad day for eons. Once health care becomes a "not for profit" system, then we'll be back on the right track.

    Is she the one whose mother feeds her a mixture of Mountain Dew, Red Bull and sugar- called something like go-go-juice to get her amped up?

    YUP :frown:

    Well, good. Cracked out toddlers dressed as prostitutes fit nicely in TLC's programming lineup of Strange Sex, Virgin Diaries, American Gypsies, Hoarders, and crazy obsessions. I remember when TLC just did makeovers and home shows! **smh**

    As a sidenote- Virgin Diaries is Fascinating, horrifying, embarassing, and hilarious all at the same time.

    As someone who has worked in television production (my husband still does, right across from Discovery's headquarters), we are totally on board with you about this one. It's insane and wrong in so many ways. The worst part is that so many will watch it because as "train wrecks" it's so hard NOT to look. I hope they can some how find a positive twist to have another spin off for this family to get them all some help - both mental and physical help.

    TLC has really become a joke over the years, there are only a couple shows left I will watch...

    All that nonsense with kid beauty queens, my secret addiction, virgin diaries... like give it a rest already!

    I'm willing to bet that the show crashes and burns with a quickness. She's an annoying little brat with no manners. I wouldn't let any kids watch it either, for just that reason. Could you imagine living with that, day in and day out? I blame the parents more than her, it's the horrible way she was raised.

    I feel your pain as far as the overall moral quality of much of TV land is complete trash. However, in regards to your last point, I frankly am absolutely over being hated by others. Whether they're going to hate us for our TV, capitalism, our freedoms, our right to own fire arms, whatever. People are always going to "hate" over something. Maybe some of it is legitimate, much IMHO is not, but someone, somewhere is always going to hate over something and I for one couldn't give a gnat's fart about being hated, whether it's by other countries or our own citizens. Be a woman or gay and go live in any random middle eastern country for awhile. Then come tell me how horrible America is. We absolutely have our share of problems and I'm not saying we don't but haters are gonna hate. So if you're gonna hate......"hate" hate.
