Who wants to marry my mom?
« on: February 14, 2003, 12:08:51 PM »
I know, talking about mothers is against the rules, but I was hoping we could let it slide

Apparently, NBC wants to compete with Fox for the "Worst Reality Show" award.  So the brains at NBC came up with Who Wants to Marry my Mom?.  This takes MILF to a whole new level.  Please excuse me while I puke.

Are people actually going to watch this show?  Worse yet, who is actually going to go on the show?  I would hope the parents are at least smart enough not to do anything like this.

I just don't get it.

I read the forum topic and thought to myself "okay that guy's getting banned".  Little did I know you were referring to a TV show.

This is such a dumb idea but I thought Survivor was a dumb idea (and still do) so what do I know.

Remember when networks actually made like comedies and stuff?  You know, stuff that intelligent people could watch without feeling their IQ drop as they watch it?

I think reality shows are dumb and I WATCH WRESTLING.  How's THAT for an insult?

Not all reality shows are bad.  I love "Survivor", I love "The Mole", and I love "The Amazing Race".

STUPID reality shows are bad.  While all these stupid marriage shows are pretty lame, nothing is going to top the brain trusts at ABC, who took a stupid fad website and turned it into a TV show.

Yeah, that right. "AreYouHotOrNot.com" is now a TV show called "Are You Hot", where stars like Lorenzo Lamas judge if people are ... wait for it ... HOT.

Nothing is ever going to beat that stupidity.  I hope someone, or several someones, get fired over that one.

give me 2 weeks, and I could train a team of chimpanzees to do a better job of running a network than those guys over at ABC. in a related note, ABC announced they plan on airing 6 different variations of the bachelor for next season. that "Are You Hot" show is such a lame idea for a show, it could only air on a network like ABC. they blatantly ripped off that idea from howard stern, and now he's suing them over it. NBC at one time said they wanted nothing to do with the "reality TV" genre, but damn, they have taken it to new lows I never thought possible. the only thing worse than shows like fear factor and meet my folks are those pathetic excuses for sitcoms like AUSA and scrubs *GAG*

Who Wants to Marry my Mom is only bad if you don't like moms.

i really can't see getting into Are You Hot. Going to hotornot.com is enough. With that kind of logic, i expect an ebay game show wouldn't be far off.

Personally i like Fox's reality shows best, because they don't test people's strengths. They test how far people will go for money. There's just something gratifying about watching people perform tricks like trained seals for money.

Well, seeing as how I can't do things like this on the show, I probably won't watch it at all.  I have always disliked the reality show genre, and that isn't changing soon from the looks of things.

Sorry, I just decided to annoy people with enforcement of incredibly stupid rules.

Meh.  I don't watch that much TV as it is, and this isn't going to change that.  The Networks are getting out of control with these silly things.  The only show I watch regularly is "24"

Well, since this is true confessions time, I love Amazing Race as well. It seems a tad less exploitative than some of the other shows also (or am I kidding myself?)

 That would definitely make an unusual tv show. I think there would be those who would want to see it. Why? People are strange.

you thought survivor was a dumb show? Survivor is 95% gameshow and 5% reality show. It just happens to be the most elaborate version of double dare ever conceived. And wow this thread 9 years old.
