3. I've never watched it
And I never will... so, I have no basis to really decide whether it's truly crap or not.

But it sounds like crap.

4. All reality tv is crap
The only ones I liked were the Manor House and the 1940's House; both were English, shown on PBS.

22. It's not reality tv. It's a new show with that chick from the Dean Cain
superman version and Marcia Cross of Melrose Place fame.

13. You and me both!
I've never watched a second of so-called "Reality TV," and I sure as hell don't plan to start now.

16. It's not "reality TV".
Far from it. It's a satire on primetime soaps/dramas.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0410975/

Having said that, I've never seen it myself.

10. Never seen it
Never plan to watch it. My TV viewing is limited to educational programs. Brit-coms, old re-runs of MASH, All in the FAmily, Green Acres, and the Munsters.

19. Wow - you sound like you and all the fundies have this in common
They're not watching it supposedly (because of all the sexual innuendo)
I like it. Its cute, and funny. And its the number one show in the country, so I'm not alone. And I'm not ashamed.

21. I watched a grand total of one episode.
The episode where one of the women is locked naked out of her house, and at a dinner party another woman blurts out that her hubby cried when he ejaculates.

Crap.
