The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.
Ummm....excuuuuuuuse meeeee the Swedes invented them.....Bride of Chuckie
Well.... not entirely true. I think the first reality show (that I know of at least) was Real World MTV, which I suppose was American. The Swedes were first to bring it to prime time with Robinson (the American version is called Survivor), but the concept was bought from an Irish/British production company owned by Bob Geldof and Charlie Parsons. So I guess there are lot of people that could be blamed...
Btw, I'm going to qualify my earlier post; The Amazing Race is actually rather entertaining.
Not my favourite show, but much better than the other reality show crap, and thus I do not hate The Amazing Race.
Whatever you do, always give 100 %!
Except when donating blood.

Yeah, I was thinking of Robinson/Survivor which is what started the whole disgusting trend.
All Reality shows, including Amazing are shyte. Fake Drama bitches
They are quick fast and sleazy, that's why they make them, it's like taking a quick fix pill to treat a symptom, which is to distract the masses from any real problems they are avoiding).
Give me PBS/TVO or a good Doc (not the fundamentalist kind ) anytime over primetime anything (except Breaking Bad, Sapranos...).
Well, there was that Playboy channel reality show 7 Lives Xposed....
When I joined the Corner Brian gave me the look! He remembered me... I have a reputation of some sort. I told him I was a changed man. You want proof... I'm going down to my home theater to watch Handy Manny with my kid!
