Reality shows and the minorities
« on: June 28, 2004, 08:00:34 AM »
OK, what\'s the deal?  There has yet to be any black reality show.  Sure they put one or two in Survivor and Big Brother, but they either cry and quit (Survivor) or they just get voted off.

They always put one in the Bachelor shows and things like that, but they usually get voted off the second week.  Can\'t vote them off first week.  That would be racist.

In Joe Shmo 2 the other night they had to vote 6 people off in the first five minutes of the show.  They were all the minority contestants.  It was the producers joke on exactly what I am saying.  Minorities don\'t make it at all in these shows.

My question is, do minorities even care?  Do they think these shows are stupid anyway?  Are there reality shows on BET?

What up my homeys?

And don\'t get on your soap box and say these shows suck blah blah blah.  There is a reason these shows rank in the highest Nielsons for years running.

I don\'t watch these shows.  However, I think it would be cool if they would do a season of The Bachelor or The Bachelorette (or whatever it\'s called) with a black man / woman as the one all the gold diggers are vyying for.  I might actually watch that.

I don\'t care to see untalented people in this "reality". You want reality, put a camera in my house and see what goes on.

Well, on ESPN\'s "Dream Job", they had the 12 contestants, two of whom were Black. They both got voted off in the first two weeks, whereas there was a no talent woman white chick that made it to the final round despite the fact that she was, well, awful.

See Yuz.
What do Kerry Wood, Mark Prior, Matt Clement, and Carlos Zambrano have in common?

They\'re the pieces to the next great pitching rotation of our time, what else?

You see.  There is something about it.  I didn\'t watch that show, but I would think out of all of the shows, that would be the one.

Although in the Aprentice, Qwami made it to the end and was beaten out by Bill.  Although I\'d much rather work with Mark Cuban than Donald Trump any day of the week.

I\'ve always thought, "COPS" was reality TV with minorities.

There is one on MTV - Making the Band with P. Diddy.  Granted they have to show some talent to win, but it is still a reality show.  Also as you said, Qwami almost won on the Apprentice - too bad he got screwed by a "sister" in the end.
