What's Your Favorite Reality Show

Just trying to get people posting. I watch just about every reality show out there. I'll list my top three favorites. Maybe somebody could name theirs and we can see just how many reality shows are actually on these days.

My Number One Favorite is Survivor (seen them all)
Next Favorite is Amazing Race
Third I like American Idol

I'd have to go with American Idol, DEA, and the video shows they have on Spike and TruTV like Most Daring, Most Dangerous, Wildest Police Chases/Shootouts, Video on Patrol, Most Amazing, etc.

But do my video shows count as Reality? Like they say on Tru: "Not Reality - Actuality!"

the bachelor/bachelorette, Americas got talent, Hells Kitchen(this show rocks) and several more.

Yes I would say they count as reality. I forgot about all those. I have never seen DEA what channel carries that one.

I've seen ads for hell's kitchen, I'll have to watch some time. Another new one coming out is chopping block on NBC it might be a good one also if you like the cooking shows.

I agree with ya TBD! My wife and I both like those exciting ones the best.. and watch them together a lot. I wonder... would Celebrity Apprentice be a Reality Show? If it is... for as long as Annie Duke is on... that would be mine for now!

Celebrity Apprentice is a definite yes. Here is a list of others.

Biggest Loser
America's Got Talent
Wife Swap
Canadian Idol

I'm not sure about 20/20, dateline/ 48hrs mystery but they are reality and I love them all. I think they may just considered news shows.

Does anybody remember Average Joe. I used to like it but its not on anymore.

me and my girl are big fans of the show cheaters. i can't get enough of it, love when they get told they have video evidence of them being caught cheating and the people want to see the tape before they are willing to admit any guilt. all time favorite episode is when the host joey greco gets stabbed on the boat, lol.

i love hells kitchen,,i like kitchen nightmares...going off that topic i really use to get into idlo...but now i just wait for the final ten...but hells kitchen rocks!

celeb rehab and its spinoff shows

I'm 90% sure DEA is on TRUtv.... could be Spike, but I'm pretty sure it's TRU. Bad@$$ show; DEA putting it to the big narcotics dealers and street gangs. Awesome stuff!

Speaking of reality shows did anyone see American Idol last nite. What did everybody think of Adams remake of Johnny Cash's song Ring of Fire. I figure he could probably bring it out as a rock song remake. I am not a rock fan at all but I kinda thought it could grow on me (very different).

Oh yeah, chef! I forgot about Hell's Kitchen. Such a great show. Ramsey always makes me laugh. I love the way he verbally pwns everyone in his kitchen; "Come here you stupid BLEEPing cow!" lol. My favorite had to be when a customer came up griping to him and he actually tells her, "Why don't you go f*** yourself?!" in front of the whole dang restaurant. LMAO, now that's customer service!

And I agree with fresno on the celeb rehab, sober house, etc. Good shows. My wife got me into those, and I find them pretty amusing. I'm a big fan of Dr. Drew and how he conducts himself. The guy is very good at reading people and getting them in touch with their own feelings, but at the same time, he's very straightforward and won't sugar-coat or take no s*** from anyone.

Which brings me to the final point: Ring of Fire on Idol. I was thoroughly impressed with Adam's performance. I thought what he did was ballsy as hell, and quite entertaining. Though it may not have been the most popular route to go, he'll likely be a hit with fans of the style of music put out by bands like Muse, Manson, Angels & Airwaves, Atreyu, AFI, etc.

After his performance, we actually had to rewind it and watch it again, we were so impressed. After watching it the 2nd time, we had to pause Idol while we had a long discussion about his performance. My wife made an interesting point that no matter what people thought of the performance, it will generate a lot of discussion. "Everybody's going to be talking about it," she pointed out. Whether people liked it or not won't matter as long as people are talking. As the saying goes, "there's no such thing as bad press."

Then I pop by the forum this morning and viola, my wife was right. People are talking about it.

Gotto be survivor & amazing race although we are about a zillion seasons behind over here and i often cant help myself and have to check on the net who wins before the current season ends!!!!

We have our own version of survivor over here but it sucks.

my wife and I like So You Think You Can Dance and Dancing with the stars. On american idol Adam was definitely brave singing that version, however I don't think he had anything to worry about he is probably the best singer of them all. I can't see the judges not saving him even if he was voted out.

Regards Guy

When not online playing poker or reading forum posts I have to say American Idol, Jon and Kate plus 8, Super nanny, but the but the best reality shows are the sport shows March Madness, football, and baseball.

I like Big Brother and Survivor!
Surreal Life with Mini-Me awhile back was hilarious!

mini me drunk and pissing in the house was hilarious, lol. i seen a new one about guys who repossess cars, watched 4 episodes in a row, action packed. there were a lot of scuffles and one episode featured a knockout punch. wasn't paying attention to the name of the show but i'm guessing it is something like repo men, because that would make sense.

Has to be the celebrity apprentice, that show is funny. I cant help but laugh every time I watch it. Anny Duke is the ish!, F those Rivers cry babies. I think Jesse James is going to win. Rodman is a strange fellow for sure, what happen to that guy. He used to be such a great B-baller. Donald is classic and I would do all things naughty to Ivanka!
