I Hate Most Reality Television and its Subjects.

So apparently people who have no talent and nothing useful to offer to society are interesting and now called "social experiments".  Back in the day (yes, I am using this line) they were called bums or welfare cases. They mooch off of society and the degradation of quality in entertainment that has occurred as of recent. Now, I am in now way saying that before the reality t.v. boom there was absolute gold on t.v., but "reality" t.v. has just brought society down to another ring of hell. Cops, the original reality show, is exempt because it is real and absolutely amazing. This rant was oddly set off by breezing through the channels and catching a whiff of the new Margaret Cho show. First, I said this must be fake and then I proceeded to vomit and step three was the realization that it was real. As with other reality shows she is equally worthless; this includes Pam Anderson (yes, big tits and all), Denise Richards, Tila Tequila, The Hills gang, and the numerous others that litter the television landscape. If there was a t.v. indian in this landscape he would cry also. These are all people who really offer nothing other than an insight into either a emotional train wreck, a luxurious life, or slut bag douche-baggery. It frustrates me to no end that people are so shameless that they will eat gross food and foolishly expose themselves to, sadly, millions of viewers all the gain the "love" of Bret Michaels (who needs to lose that god damn cowboy hat and join hair club for men) or a midget whore Vietnamese women. What's worse is that the retard contestants keep getting spin off shows. Thank god that Flava Flav has had 20 shows because he is advancing human kind. Ugliest and most obnoxiously annoying guy EVAR.
I understand that they aren't on t.v. to provide any kind of useful service, but they are supposed to be entertaining correct? If they were even doing the non-job that they were supposed to do correctly I wouldn't be upset. It's just the fact that they become famous and have absolutely no talent other than having no shame. Has our society gone so far as to for-go talent and artistry. I don't want t.v. to be like PBS all the time, but why aren't quality t.v. shows being produced? Is it a real situation of the media giving us what we want? I certainly hope not. Shows like Arrested Development, a hilarious and smart show, was cancelled due to lack of viewership, but Bret Michaels et al. get numerous seasons to destroy any kind of imagination or entertainment still available. Great shows such as Seinfeld, The Office, Friends, and such are redeemers for t.v. and entertainment, but the fact that reality shows that focus on nobodies who should remain nobodies keep surviving year after year is slightly disconcerting. So to end, I hate talentless people that are included, but not limited to the people mentioned above. They are wastes of time and life offering nothing of interest (other than maybe making yourself feel better that you don't live like them or have hepatitis, oddly enough I can't limit the last part to just one of the reality stars) and just generally being annoying while the fabric of society cries itself to sleep at night trying to figure out why we hate it so much.
