I like Big Brother and the Amazing Race as much as anyone else but... - VGF

These Reality TV shows are getting out of hand. I'm not even saying it just because of there's so many of them, but they hand out too much damn money. Money that could be given to some of the homeless people, that survive their WHOLE LIVES without a house to even live in. And they don't get rewarded for that. Anybody agree with me on this?

Please don't tell me they're just now getting out of hand...

Brandon2390 · 09-13-2004, 10:02 PM

Reality shows got outta hand after the three show rule

Big Brother
Amazing Race
Survivor

After all this "Mom Swap" and "Joe millionare" bull**** came around, they went crazy

Let's keep it down to three, the three that are like extended game shows.

Are they still broadcasting Big Brother over there? We only got 3 seasons over here (where the show was first developed).

How much money can you win on these shows? I think you won a quarter of a million (guilders, even since we had no euros back then) in the Dutch BB.

You're all missing my point. I KNOW THEY'VE BEEN OUT OF HAND. The real concern is, these people are getting way too much money to do things that other people have had to do without getting any money.

As I said, the original three should be the only to stay.

And these other ones can be thrown away.

And yea, we're in the 5th Season right now, but I think the American version is different than the EU version, well at least now anyway. in the first season America voted, now it's HoH competitions, and evictions made by the houseguests, and etc.

I'm pretty sure America hates the final three, becaus they all backstabbed......ok, I'm getting off subject....
