    Post Reality TV gone TOO far????

    There is this new show in Australia called 'Taken Out'. There are 30 girls all stanign around a semi circle and one single male man. Bit by bit he tells bits about himself. The girls buzz him out if they're not interested. The host comes around and asks the girls why they chose to.

    Always and i mean always the men are critized for example- HOST: What don't you like about him? GIRL1: His pants are too tight. HOST: Is that all? What else? GIRL1: Oh and a bit of his face... Yes you read it right. But hear is the shocking suprise he turned out to be a MODEL.

    In the end of course the man gets to go on the girl left standing (if he's lucky to not be totally rejected)

    It is an a way entertaining to watch but sometimes it is way too cruel. I just can feel the embarrassment of the man. Do you think reality TV has gone too far?

    But think of this for a second. The man chose to come on the show, so was he asking for it?

    Reality TV went to far the moment the first reality show came out.

    I think it is starting to go too far to be completely honest. I am not impressed with the direction that reality tv has gone in.

    Reality TV has and always will suck, there's nothing we can do about it excpet stop watching it and hope it flutters on by.
    It's all a big corporate money maker really. They don't care about ther contestants even half as much as they should. :/
