What's up with all the redneck TV shows?

it seems like once one cable network comes up with the idea for a reality show, the others have to make their own version. So now we have shows about pawn shops, auction hunters, ghost hunters, alien hunters, etc. And how many daytime syndicated courtroom shows are we up to? And today, it was suggested that there be a reality show following Vice President Biden. Next will Fox follow Speaker Boehner and MSNBC follow Nancy Pelosi? Maybe the Food Network can do a show following the White House chef.

Oh, how much I loathe TV shows and realities about lowlives... what the worst thing is that even if they are made with a prupose to make fun of these people (and most of them deserve it, like Honey Boo Boo and her delusional crazy mother), but the media is brainwashing some people and they start to think that it's the right thing to do, because they long for fame... yuck.

Yeah, that is funny... the subtitles. As usual, media is kind of exploiting people. And I guess those who are watching do so because they can either relate or find it very humorous.

I wouldn't give a minute of my time to this garbage. I don't understand what is going on with the TV shows today. There are very few that are good quality written shows. As for Reality shows most are not worth my time. I only like the competition shows. As for all the above shows you mentioned and all of the housewives of everywhere, tots and Tiara show, etc.... are all stupid mindless shows. The only reason they are still on is because people are watching them and I sincerely think these people who are watching them don't have a life. The producers are making these shows because they cost very little. So whatever entertaines the stupid people of america they will keep it on.

Yes I have noticed. There aren't even that many black shows anymore but there are quite alot of the "real" reality shows. I just hate the fact that so many of one type of show is available, sometimes. But thankfully there are a few other choices we could watch instead. I don't watch any of those "redneck" shows at all, they sometimes drive me insane and lord knows I have enough of that in real life.

Yeah. I guess it's the latest trend. I watched a couple episodes of Honey Boo Boo and it didn't appeal to me at all. Watched one episode of Buck Wild and that was even worse. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

There are so many because people are watching them. I do not personally watch any of them but I think it is funny that they need subtitles.
