Curiously, you can now attend classes in Reality TV - how to gain an edge over your opponents reports Heather Alexander on BBC News! To get your 15 minutes of fame nowadays you need to be just a bit better prepared than the average stupid applicant.

In case you hadn’t noticed, political correctness is frowned on here so go here for translations if you are a sensitive soul.

Reality TV shows have few redeeming features but those that do spring to mind include keeping moronic viewers off the streets for while.

The only Reality I can see is that contestants are universally stupid; production crews are universally patronising while viewers are manipulated as usual. Still, it’s an effective way of keeping millions quiet when the required medical treatment would be too expensive to be made available by NICE.

I cant begin to describe how pissed off I am with TV companies turning the volume up for the adverts. What is the matter with these people? Do they think we will listen to their puerile broadcasts just because it gets louder? It’s like speaking louder to a foreigner who doesn’t understand you.

Get the message - we are not listening.

It’s an insult to have marketing dip-shits trying to ram messages down our throats in such an offensive manner.

Making it louder doesn’t make a shite product any more interesting. I suggest they try recruiting someone with an IQ higher than an amoeba

‘Can fat teens hunt’ is about a group of obese teenagers dumped in a native village in the jungle. General idea is the natives mentor the teens. So, what’s the verdict? I’d say fat teens are about as much use as a fart in a lift.

‘100 Most annoying people of 2007′ should need no introduction! A critique about 100 singularly uninteresting people by other people who would like to be much more well-known than they are.
