Too much reality tv

July 12, 2001 9:45 AM

Do we really need to discuss Survivor, Big Brother, The Real World, etc. on Metafilter? Two links in as many days about this stuff makes me cringe. It's bad enough hearing people talk about these shows everywhere you go, does this community need to "go there" as well?

Crud, wrong thread. Go here instead.

yes, of course we have to, because we have to be populist, vox populi, whatever. and if we say it's crap, we will be accused of elitism. but, hey, what's wrong with elitism when it's right? to paraphrase Barbra Mandrell 'if loving Survivor is wrong, i don't want to be right.'
