When Big Brother introduced the coaches twist this season, I was a bit reluctant to jump on board. Part of the reason was that I was frankly sick of Mike Boogie on my television screen. There are few people on reality television who come across quite as cocky and self-centered as he does. I’ve always […]

UPDATE: Since this article was published, Kara has been evicted and Willie expelled for violence (technically towards Joe, but that’s just because Joe happened to be standing in the way of Willie’s temper). Meanwhile, Frank survived eviction and won HOH. Boogie blew the Coach’s Competition with his ego so Janelle won and kept Ashley safe […]

The summer reality season has been winding down (thanks for an incredibly awkward summer, Bachelor Pad!) and the fall season is starting up (go Chaz Bono, go!), never more interestingly than on the network that undoubtedly rules the reality universe- CBS.

The Amazing Race, So You Think You Can Dance, Survivor, Dancing with the Stars, Top Chef, Project Runway and The Bachelor dominate my TV season by airing at least 2 seasons or versions of themselves a year (Bachelor AND Bachelorette, SYTYCD AND SYTYCDCanada, etc…) But some of the biggest (and the smallest) reality shows of […]

 

It’s disappointing to admit that this season’s Big Brother is barely keeping my attention. There have been a few ups and downs but overall the strategy is lackluster, the contestants are a bit boring, and a good amount of really dumb decisions are being made. I will say one thing though: for the first time […]
