For one, I'm getting tired of Survivor. It has become very predictable lately. I long for the suspense of the previous seasons where you're not entirely sure of who's going to be voted off the island. Now, it's just like knowing the bootee beforehand and just waiting for the final tribal council. *big sigh*
So there you have it, so far, my least favorite reality show is Survivor.
How about you? What is YOUR least favorite reality TV show?

I'm not really crazy about any of them to be honest. Survivor has been the most disappointing to me though because I really liked it when it first came out. It has become so predictable and repetitive. I don't like Big Brother anymore either.

Me too, I am not really crazy about most of the reality shows. I find it is good to sit on my sofa watching for the reality show for a while and after few episodes I lost most of my interests on it.

I completely dislike the X Factor. I watch the auditions to watch the rubbish people but I have to switch off after that. Very few people have made a career out of the X Factor and all it does is over-rate its winners which often makes them almost one hit wonders. The only successful winner has been Leona Lewis and with that in mind I don't think it qualifies as a brilliant show if only 1 winner out of about 4 has done any good .Well, Shayne Ward did ok but he's disappeared somewhere and he really didn't have the fame you'd expect.
The worst thing is that it has made the Christmas number 1 into a joke. What is the point? In what way is the Christmas number 1 special anymore? The only time it will be special is when someone beats the X Factor winners, and the only record that has done that was the majority of famous singers and bands of 2004 joining together for Band Aid 20.
What confuses me if why hundreds of thousands of people download the winning tracks. It is an unnatural amount of people and they fail to show interest in the artists (bar Leona once again) afterwards. I wouldn't be suprised if many ended up delted their downloads/ throwing their CDs away/ taking them to charity shops within 2 years of the show if that.
Sorry, there are so many reason I dislike the show. But at least 10 million people a week seem to like it so I guess I'll have to put up with the rubbish (in my opinion) for now.

ANY of the reality shows on VH1. Anyone remember back when that was a music channel? Sure MTV has reality shows, but VH1 has atrocious reality shows! I think I would have to shower after I watched one. Just the commercials of them alone are enough for me. Flavor Flav, Rock of Love, I Love New York...

In reality i don't like this kind of show to watch on tv!!I never understood why some people like so much reality shows:in fact i found them not 'reality' but the expression of false things bulted by tv major just to keep some audience and stop!!Never heard in these a kind of spontaneous behaviour but just sterotypes i think!!So i use to dislike these kind of shows ...and in this case my answer will be consequently ALL!!

Yep American Idol gets my vote. 1) because the most talented people NEVER win (except for Rupert but he was not the MOST talented for that season) 3} The cutsie Simon/Paula vibe that was cute and funny for the first few seasons... completely ANNOYING now! 4} they always limit the songs the finalists can sing... This is STUPID!
The second most annoying one is The Amazing Race.... HOLY CRAP this thing is a snooze fest for me!
3rd is Big Brother... again its just not worth it anymore... not enough new original things happen to keep you interested.

I really don't like almost every reality show that has come out since Survivor started the whole 'reality show craze'. The only one I have watched and enjoyed on a regular basis is The Biggest Loser. As a matter of fact, I think that might be the ONLY reality show I have ever really watched other than a few episodes of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and Mr. T's short lived reality series "I Pity The Fool' that TV Land did back in 2006.
It doesn't seem like Mr. T's show aired that long ago to me lol.

I like Survivor but I like Amazing Race more. It is a good reality show at the same time the contestant can travel around the world. Unlike Survivor you need to do some strategy to convince everyone but in Amazing Race you need to be competitive and strong to be able to win the race. The reality show that I hate is Big Brother I don't watch that show when it is first launched it our local TV station I don't feel to watch it because it is boring.

To be honest I don't like any reality shows, period :)
They seem to have a huge audience all over the world but it's something that never really interested me.
I think I have watched maybe half an episode of survivor ever since it started and that was because I was in someone's house and they were great fans. I have checked some of the reality shows on tv to see if maybe there is one that I will actually enjoy watching but so far, haven't found one, so I'm thinking reality shows are not really for me :)

I have a few. Anything with Tiffany Pollard (aka "New York" of "Flavor of Love" and "I Love New York" fame) is at the top of my list. I would also like to see "Daisy of Love" pulled--this girl is the epitome of fake; she makes the worst actor or actress in the world look like Clark Gable or Bette Davis.
"Survivor" is another one. It was exciting for the first couple of seasons, but now it's just gotten predictable and tired.

Watching Paris Hilton My New BFF, boring as hell, it just shows us how fake Paris Hilton is and the whole thing about Paris BFF is just pathetic. She will never take a regular people to be her BFF, her assistant maybe yes, but BFF? Is just for socialite with loads of money, and she's now looking for BFF in UK and reportedly Dubai also? Like she regularly come to Dubai! Cmon!

I would have to say the Bachelor. It does suck me in if I happen to catch it. But, I just don't think you can find true love by going on tv and having your every move video taped. Didn't people learn when they realized only one of those relationships has worked. Or, did they learn from Jessica Simpson and Nick LaShae? Their reality show ruined their relationship. People can't be themselves in front of a national audience. I am ready for the Bachelor to call it quits.

I stopped watching Survivor a LONG time ago. My friends and I made it a TON more interesting by re-enacting it at school during recess. I had to eat a dandelion, half a ladybug, and a handful of dirt. I was the lucky one, my friend got all the gross stuff.
American Idol kinda lost its appeal when people started just coming on dares and acting like idiots just to get on television. It's really stupid now. I mean, some of the people auditioning are legit, but the rest... Woooh... Crazies.
Out of those two... Survivor wins by a landslide... I'd rather watch idiots trying to sing than watch the most predictable show on earth.

At the moment it is big brother, I live in UK and ours started last week and I watched the opening show and it was enough to put me off for life!! I have never seen such a bunch of misfits in my life and am only thinking that I am glad that it ends either after this series or next year!! I think a lot of these reality shows now are flogged to their limits, at first they are ok but then the novelty wears off.

My least favorite has got to be "I am a celebrity, Get me outta here"!!! This one is far worse than Survivor, in my opinion. I just started watching it this past week, and I got a headache before the end of the first show. Where do they get some of these actors, especially that husband/wife combo...oh gosh!!!

I pretty much hate all reality shows... even cute ones like Torie and Dean Inn Love starts to get on my nerves after a while.
I just don't understand why the media thinks that we give a rats behind about the daily lives of has been celebrities like Hulk Hulgan, MC Hammer and Torie Spelling.
If I have to have to pick its Torie and Dean, but its really a matter of which is the one I hate the least instead of my favorite.

I am not that crazy on reality shows but I've watch some of it before. I remember watching tomy hilfigher show in which the brand owner is selecting his new employee on the batch of competitors... I love the part when they have challenged to design a billboard for tommyhilfigher... and when they are challenged to organized an event with a theme of 30's and 70's... BUt now, I am palnning to watch the Philippine' version of Project Runway coz' the venue is in our school.. (School of Fashion and the Arts or SoFA) and I am interested on how these designers will produce new designs...
That's it.. hope that make sense! Keep rockin' and happy mylotting guys! Be safe.
