And he signed the release?

Last night we watched the premiere of the Joe Schmo show on Spike TV. My husband and I have very different tastes in TV, so I watched expecting to hate it, but it was enjoyable. I just feel sorry for the guy! I mean, the show’s characters are so over the top! In a way, I think “how can this guy NOT know this is staged?!” Then, on the other hand, we humans are a generally trusting bunch, so it’s not that surprising that he doesn’t question the scenario. I just wonder why people who get sucked in to these elaborate schemes actually sign the release form. Do they REALLY want to be on national TV that badly? Yipes. But there are some classic stereotypes and one-liners in this show. Ill watch it a second time to see if it catches on. Just please, god, don’t let me get sucked in to one of the Temptation Islands and its ilk…

Speaking of reality TV game shows, I miss Murder in Small Town X. Man, THAT was an awesome show. It was actually somewhat original with a real plot.
