Putting aside all the hoopla . . . how in the world does ANYONE watch Reality TV? It’s beyond horrible.

Different strokes. That's why there's so many different channels - everybody can watch what they want. Personally, I like "Duck Dynasty" and "American Restoration". For some reason I find it fascinating to watch the craftsmanship on American Restoration as they restore old junk into its original glory.

Watch 3 hours straight of DD and your brain will be fried too.

Depends on the show. Some shows are fascinating because of the technology of particular professions that are on display, as well as the characters and humor of those in that profession.

Personally, I like “Bering Sea Gold” and “Backyard Oil” the best. “Pawn Stars” is still educational in terms of the history of the items they deal with and their current pricing.

If it wasn’t for shows like these and football, I wouldn’t watch TV at all, because if one wants that which is truly beyond horrible, all one has to do is take a gander at ANY network TV series to see nothing but a wasteland of trite stupidity. Many “reality” shows are works of genius compared to network TV.

I regularly watch Pawn Stars and occasionally watch Duck Dynasty but got burnt out on it. Every once in a while I am in the mood for some low-level trash and will catch of few minutes of Lizard Lick Towing just to agitate the wife.
