I f any of you have watched mtv's fresh meat or the gaunlet and have read the any robert greene book you will notice some similarities same with big brother and donald trumps show.what have your learned from watching your fav shows?:wave:

I prefer to pay attention to my OWN reality.

You know when you watch that crap, half of the things they do stem from the fact that they ARE on-camera, right?

You think those guido-punks on Jersey Shore would get laid all the time if they didn't have a guy in an MTV-cap following them around with a TV camera?

^what you mean???

I thought you can learn stuff by watching tv. I mean sure, programming is for idiots with IQ 70 and bellow, but if you watch two programs that's 70 + 70, so you become smart.

My favorite television reality show—a decade ago—was Blind Date. Even though the dates were exaggerated by the presence of a camera, and date locations were decided by the producers, there was one solid thing which I did learn. You could predict (with 99% accuracy) how the date would end by looking at the body language reactions in the first three seconds of the date. If a girl is attracted to you, almost nothing can do you wrong. If a girl isn't, nothing can save you. The only time the predictions were wrong was if the date turned out to be a complete blowout because the guy had horrible or non-existent game.

The day I think I "learned" something from Reality TV is the day I stop myself from watching it. I watch very little of it, but look at it as nothing more than thoughtless comedy (Jersey Shore). There is nothing that anybody on those shows can teach me that will better any aspect of my life.
