Reality TV
Reality TV has always been something that I could not get into. I have tried before because everyone else would always talk about how entertaining it was to watch, like Jersey Shore or those dating shows on VH1. For me, it was just boring. I hate seeing people be mean or act dumb in public, so why would I want to watch it for fun. I could never let myself become consumed in all of that. That's why reality TV has had little impact on my life. I do not let the decisions they make on those shows effect how I dress, act or live. Mostly because they are not the type of people I want to be compared to. I also have never been much for gossip and back stabbing, like survivor. The people on these shows act like high school kids with their fights and problems and then continue to say I hate drama. That's why the only thing reality TV has done for my life is make me more conscious of my own actions so I don't make myself look bad. It's like these people are completely oblivious of how they look on national television. I think this what makes me dislike reality TV the most. These stars act with a lack of respect for their own image and this makes society want to act eh same. Then, when other nations see us, this is what they have in store. We are a country that worships rude and stupid celebrities. And our society will continue to make them more rich and famous as long as they all continue to follow these peoples' every move. Our society keeps up with their every move, acts like them and, in some cases, will look like them. Like the Bad Girls Club, where all they do is fight and yell at each other. It reflects on our society to the point that girls want to be considered bad and tough like them. I find it sad that our society would rather be cool and dumb then be an enjoyable person who is actually intelligent. Our society needs to look for role models in people who mean something, not the idiots we see on reality TV.
