I know this was mentioned here once so I thought I might follow up.

This has a huge car wreck factor. Do we really want to watch celebs skate or fall on their butts?
Skating with Celebrities? So horrific, it boogles my mind. This mind is an extremly boogled one.
Need drugs now.

More horrific than
The Swan? Average Joe? The O'Reilly Factor?
If people want to watch celebrities learn to skate, it doesn't really offend my sensibilities. Although I don't understand the attraction.

In response, I only have two words.
Todd. Bridges.
Watchu talkin' about, Kristen?
Christ, this means we're
not
following the Amercians' lead for a change. Australia's already had two (I think) series of
Dancing with the Stars
and it has been quite popular. We also had a "skating with the stars" series too but I don't think it was very popular at all.
I wonder if we're both following some UK lead?
More horrific than The Swan? Average Joe? The O'Reilly Factor?
Actually... yeah, I think so. Sure, those are all very horrific in their own right, but I can see where the attraction comes from. I don't share it, or understand it, nor can't I understand why it has lasted this long, but in a sense I can see where it comes from.
Now, Dancing with the Stars I don't understand, plus it killed my darling, and now they are taking that concept even further.
So yeah, it certainly is more horrific than shows like those three. Not by much, though, but yes.
With that said, I loath the mere concept of reality shows more and more for each new show (strangely, or not so much, the loathing really increased with the cancellation of The Inside), and bunch 'em all together in a bowl marked with "Horrific Crap" in big bold letters.
Them, and The O'Reilly Factor. Truly horrific.
Anyways, it's late and I'm probobly rambling a bit. Should probobly write myself of in english, get me one of those popular blog-thingies in this language. Or something.
While it's not my cup of tea, the only thing I think was wrong with Dancing with the Stars was that it put the final nail in Rebecca's coffin. Completely not the sort of thing I get up in arms about other people enjoying.
You all saw "Aidan?" Awesome. I wanna know -- what'd you think?
