Welp after a brief hiatus from the airwaves, one of the original most popular Reality TV shows is back on NBC, Fear Factor is now making a return to TV. So many have missed the show where contestants were forced to hang from moving helicopters and leap thru rings of fire. Most notable though is Fear Factors legendary challenge where it would make its contestants eat something vile, like bull testicle or alligator penis, just to name a few. They also had many challenges where they would have the most squeamish of contestants have to lay in a tub filled with insects or other disgusting creatures. I just think this show is funny because it shows just how stupid some people are and even more so how far some will go for the right price. Again the world revolves around money and no show can bring that to the forefront than Fear Factor, its not about the competition. Its not about conquering ones fear, of lets say heights, no its all about the green backs and what and how far you are willing to go to get them. If you care to watch that stuff Fear Factor will be on NBC Dec 12th at 8pm...

My sentiments exactly...
I have been doing some web surfing on other Reality TV blogs and such and I recently came across an article that caught my eye. I have to completely agree with a lot of what the author talks about. The author dives into how most of these newly crowned "reality TV" stars claw at the opportunity to try and extend their "15 minutes of fame" when most of them if not all, don't even have a viable talent to warrant the added acclaim. Like for example theses semi famous female reality stars, just because you're semi attractive and have the moral compass which allows you to pose half naked (if not fully nude) in front of the camera doesn't mean you should be famous... it just means your more of an exhibitionist than a celebrity. Or take some of these people who have won on a show like Fear Factor for eating bull testicle... if eating bull testicles was the standard for fame all of Spain would be famous seeing as bull testicle is a national delicacy. Fame should be for those who deserve it, artists, musicians, novelists, people with real talents. I'm a firm believer that if your so called talent just takes you on a search for the limelight then you don't deserve it to begin with.
