Okay so the strike is on! The Writer's Guild has decreed that until their demands are met, we will be forced to endure reruns of our favorite sitcoms and dramas. What? No Ugly Betty? Someone hand me a razorblade!
Relax, take a deep breath, and say a prayer to the God of all things Reality, Mark Burnett. Thanks to his early vision (anyone remember Eco-Challenge?) reality tv has invaded our collective psyche, and turned the country into the voyeurs we all know we are. Fortunately because it's unscripted, the show will go on! So if you are jonesing for your favorite shows, and totally over reruns because you already bought the boxed set, may I suggest these reality tv alternatives:
If you are addicted to:
Gray's Anatomy, ER, House
I suggest:
Trauma: Life in the ER
you'll never look at McSteamy the
same way again after watching
emergency colonectomys
If you're addicted to:
Ugly Betty
I suggest:
America's Next Top Model
No brainer here, just alot less comedy
but all the same pseudo fashion
If you're addicted to:
How I Met Your Mother, Two and a Half Men, pretty much
any trendy sitcom about the woes of being hip and pretty in
the 21st century
I suggest:
The Hills
No it's not funny, except the train
wreck that is Spencer and Heidi
If you're addicted to:
CSI, JAG, Without a Trace, Law and Order
I suggest:
Anything on Court TV
And I do mean anything - the detective and
scientists aren't as hot as Marg Helgenberger
or Jesse L. Martin, but they can solve the
case in an hour long show too.
Works for me!
Ciao for now!
