What's that ?
Tried for Fear Factor, but they didn't want to fly me over there and my reason for applying, which was that the women contestants look great in bikinins, didn't cut it.
My favourite reality show ever has got to be The Contender. The final over here is this Wednesday, but I already know who wins thanks to my son's big mouth 
Is there a Contender # 2 ? |

X Factor is the one where supermarket checkout staff get to make fools of themselves and be shredded by "experts" who tell them their crap. Simon Cowell then choose the most demographically compliant to win ie. We've had a fat one, a gay one, next one will have to be a wheel chair bound Asian with dandruff and halitosis.
It's marketed as a 'big break' for talent but in fact it's a global franchise looking to sell off the back of TV exposure - the contract they will offer will be a salary and forget about having any control over anything - after all they are "experts"! My advice - the wiff of desperation and the destruction of your credibility added to lack of any long term potential make it a no go. |
