Anyone catch the show tonight?? Kudos to those girls for defeating those undefeated boys for the 50k!! None of us here thought they would beat them, and neither did the girls, but they did!

I thought this question was about could I stand the show ...

No ... not b/c of the outrageous stunts ... it's just another reality show with its 15 minutes of fame quickly approaching that 15th minute.

And I can blame Survivor for starting the so-called reality show madness ... Want reality? I'll film the average day of the life of a postal worker who really wants to storm chase. :P

Let's see ...

Can I say the following?

.... Joe Millionaire ... :33:
.... Americal Idol ... (well, there's some talent involved) ... Star Search is the original (and best)
.... The Bachelor ... :18:

It's not Survivor, unless someone could actually die ... :skull:

I do not like fear factor and have seldom watched it. I do not like anything that plays on someones fears. I understand trying to overcome those fears, if they are real, but not in the way they do it on the show. Money does not motivate me that way!!

I would at least try! It wouldn't bother me to have "critters" on me...but when it comes to eating things...I'm a little more picky LOL

$500,000 to eat a slimy worm...gotta really think hard about that one!

Even if the prize was a million dollars, it wouldn't be worth it because I'd die of a heart attack if I tried to eat that junk and wouldn't get the money anyway! :roll:


yup - can't stand to watch the commercials even - YUCK! :18:

I'd attempt the stunts for $50,000; but it would take a LOT MORE cash than that to make me eat worms (not for $500,000 :D )
