Like'em, Hate'em? What's your favorite?

My personal fav is Survivor. Just something about that show that gets you hooked. Can't wait to see what happens tomorrow. Somebody get attacted by an alligator or something.

Big Brother, SUCKED. Hate that show. Too cheese.

The Mole's got me hooked too. Tonight's the last episode. I think Steven is the Mole.

Real World and Road Rules have always been one of my favorites too.

TEMPTATION ISLAND [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Heheh actually I'm not really into those shows. I do watch Kathy Griffin's show on MTV that makes fun of the reality shows though. Her Temptation Island coverage last weekend was just freakin hilarious!

LonestarROB · 02-28-2001, 02:32 PM

LoL

I watch that show too. It's funny as hell [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] .

Btw, anybody watch FEAR on MTV? I think that show is funny too.

djb · 02-28-2001, 02:36 PM

I watched that show for the first time a couple weeks ago and actually thought it was pretty good! Some of that shit would scare the hell out of me! Plus that Asian guy TOTALLY reminded me of a gay friend of mine.

giostar · 02-28-2001, 04:35 PM

I dont get a chance to catch many of the other shows because i dont get home from the gym until 8 or 8:30... but the MTV show FEAR comes on at 9 (I think) and Im hooked on that show. Its so damn funny how they think they hear something or see something. The other day one girl acually thought she got posessed. Its real funny to see the guys on the show act like freakin pansies too... I wish that MTV would plant some things in there to make it "weirder". Like actually having a guy jump out at them or something like that to totally freak them out.

Hales233 · 02-28-2001, 04:44 PM

I like the new Survivor, but I agree with all of you, the Kathy Griffin show on MTV is hilarious. I was rolling around on the floor the other day watching that show.

Did you see when she did the "Why I hate you Andy" speech?? That was tremendous.

I always watch Real World too: the first and still the best reality show out there. The only thing that bugs me, though, is that everyone who is on the show now is just on there to try and jumpstart an acting career. It seems less "real" than it used to be.

dallmav · 03-01-2001, 06:35 PM

fear is awesome and some of the things these people do is just actually ridiculous, but funny as hell.

djb · 03-01-2001, 07:07 PM

So many things to watch on Thursday nights..Friends, Survivor, WWF Smackdown (don't you be callin me a redneck just cause I watch wrasslin ya hear?!)..thank goodness there isn't a Mavs game on tonight [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

LonestarROB · 03-01-2001, 10:54 PM

Anybody watch Survivor tonight? That one guy(Mike I think) passed out on the fire. Burned his hands off. It was kinda gross.

Hales233 · 03-01-2001, 11:00 PM

yeah i saw that...what a boring episode, without any immunity challenges

djb · 03-01-2001, 11:03 PM

What happened to the guy with the burned hand? I didn't watch it tonight.

LonestarROB · 03-01-2001, 11:13 PM

He was working on the fire and breathed in too much smoke and passed out and landed on the fire. Burned all the skin off his hands, emergency personel came and then he was taken away in a helicopter.

djb · 03-01-2001, 11:17 PM

Oh man so does that mean he's off the show? Poor guy.. On the flipside, tonight's episode of Friends was pretty damn good!

LonestarROB · 03-01-2001, 11:23 PM

Yep, he's off the show.

It was kinda funny too because for the previews of the show they made it out to seem like someone got attacted by an aligator. Everytime someone went close to the water I was like "alright, here it goes" expecting an aligator to jump out. But it never happened. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Big Boy Laroux · 03-02-2001, 07:42 AM

DUDE! that sucks! i didn't get to watch survivor last night (hot date), but i could have sworn that someone was gonna get eaten. damn advertising.

but i knew mike was gonna be gone when i saw the preview for the helicopter. i read on some web page about two weeks ago that friends of mike's said that when he came home, his hands and arms were really heavily bandaged.

so was anyone around to pull him out of the fire? why the hell was he standing so close?

LonestarROB · 03-02-2001, 09:37 AM

It's hard to tell why he was standing so close. The camera wasn't on Mike, it was on someother guy and then you could hear someone scream in the back ground. Then everybody ran. But Mike got up on his own power and ran into the water. He just stayed there screaming until the paramedic's came.

Hales233 · 03-02-2001, 11:33 AM

the camera guys feel asleep when mike fell in the fire...i wish we could have seen exactly what happen...i'm still somewhat confused

LonestarROB · 04-13-2001, 04:56 PM

Anyone catch Survivor last night? There was a flood and it washed there camp away. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] They lost almost everything. Including there rice. lol [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] . But they found the rice bucket down stream later [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] .

Hales233 · 04-13-2001, 05:59 PM

i missed it...amber got voted off right??

madape · 04-13-2001, 06:02 PM

That is so disappointing. Amber was very very hot. If Elizabeth gets voted off, there is no reason to watch at all.

Hales233 · 04-13-2001, 06:06 PM

dude, amber was nasty [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

i heard next week colby and keith get into a pretty good argument...my friend said they showed it in the previews.

djb · 04-13-2001, 11:28 PM

Have you guys seen the previews for the new reality show called Man Hunt?! It's co-created by the WWF's Vince McMahon [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] There are basically 13 contestants and three hunters (reminiscent of those dudes in the original Predator movie). The three hunters basically hunt down the contestants using paintball guns. Contestants are eliminated after getting shot two or three times, and the last one remaining is the winner. Sounds sweet!

LonestarROB · 04-13-2001, 11:33 PM

Nah, can't say I've heard of it [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img] . Sounds enterresting though.

Flying Tiger · 04-14-2001, 12:07 AM

I hate all of those shows. I thought that Survivor was kind of interesting at first, but then all the others followed it. Now they all suck!

Hales233 · 04-14-2001, 12:09 AM

survivor is the only decent one IMO

Flying Tiger · 04-14-2001, 11:24 PM

Has anyone seen that show where they combine survivor and who wants to be a millionare? It's called the weakest link. You vote off team members and the one left gets the money. I didn't watch, just saw commercials.

djb · 04-14-2001, 11:25 PM

I've seen the commercials for it too. That woman just cracks me up each time she says "YOU are the weakest link!"

LonestarROB · 04-14-2001, 11:26 PM

"Good Bye" [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

djb · 04-17-2001, 09:38 PM

I just watched the end of that show..pretty good stuff! I swear that girls was about to cry when she didn't know the answer to that last question! You are the weakest link - goodbye! Heheh that host rules!

LonestarROB · 04-18-2001, 10:08 AM

I love how mean she is. And how she encourages the players to be mean to each other [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] . I'm like it so far.

Hales233 · 04-18-2001, 10:17 AM

anyone see the challenge last night?

LonestarROB · 04-18-2001, 11:03 AM

The Challenge? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

Hales233 · 04-18-2001, 11:07 AM

Real World/Road Rules Challenge

djb · 04-18-2001, 11:09 AM

She was the host of the original series launched in the UK right? If so, is that show still going on over there?

Hales are you talking about that Eco-Challenge show or something? I haven't been watching it. There are just too damn many of these reality shows [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Though I definitely can't wait for Vince McMahon's new show!

LonestarROB · 04-18-2001, 11:12 AM

Ohh, I watched part of it. Emily threw a hissy fit.

That Eco-Challenge show is good I think. But it's over now right? It was only a 4 day thing I think.

Hales233 · 04-18-2001, 11:12 AM

Eco Challenge was really good, also really creepy...leeches kept climbing into the people and one even went up one guy's you know what!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

Hales233 · 04-18-2001, 11:14 AM

yeah, Emily was sort of a baby last night...that last event where they got shot way high up in the air looked scary as hell.

LonestarROB · 04-18-2001, 11:14 AM

".. one even went up one guy's you know what!!"

lol, that was funny [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] . There were leeches everywhere. It seemed like half the challenge was picking all the leeches off your body.

Hales233 · 04-18-2001, 11:15 AM

HAHA, I know....I'd like to try to complete it for the physical challenge, but I couldn't deal with the emotional stress (i.e. LEECHES!!).

djb · 04-18-2001, 11:30 AM

Members of the Survivor 1 cast will be contestants on an upcoming episode of The Weakest Link! The episode featuring Richard Hatch, Susan Hawk, Sean Kenniff, Ramona Gray, Gretchen Cordy, and Joel Klug has already been shot. According to rumors, Hatch will be the first person voted off [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
