I suppose most of us have somehow gotten caught up in reality TV shows. Out here, we openly confess to being Survivor and American Idol fans. We have our limits, though. Shows about midgets getting married are clearly out. The best of all time was the Joe Schmoe Show. In it, the entire cast was made up of actors playing classic reality show typecast characters, except for the one guy who was the only real person in the show. There was the "gay guy", the "slut," the "buddy," the "religious goody two-shoes," and of course, the "smarmy host." If you've ever enjoyed one of these reality shows, it's a classic you should watch if you ever get chance. There are a number of other shows that I'll leave to Dara to confess to if she wants, but for those I'm sticking to my story that "I happened to be in the room when my wife was watching..."
Anyway, the recent Americal Idol show has definitely had a set of contestants that are more talented than the previous seasons. Mostly they fall into the "beautiful people" category, too. It's hard to be an American Idol if you ain't pretty, let's face it. The one exception this time around has been a guy named Scott, who is never going to be featured on the cover of GQ. This news isn't going to help him.
