reality tv: crush vs cringe

Because this blog is all about solving The Big Issues, can we just take a moment to discuss the magic that is Reality TV.  Let's begin with my current favourite show....


It's one hour of craptastic, booze filled drama featuring a lot of faces that don't actually move. Because when you live in Beverly Hills, too much botox is never enough.  

The Season Finale on Tuesday night featured Pandora's wedding and it was very, very pink.  And all the wedding photos feature Pandora's mother.  Also wearing pink.  And a tiara.  Because apparently "Pandy wanted me to wear it."

Now I don't know about you, but if I asked my mum to frock up in a baby pink gown, complete with diamond encrusted tiara and feature in every single photograph, she might just tell me it's time for some hardcore therapy sessions.


Anyho, last night I watched the Australian version of The Real Housewives show...


It's on Foxtel and is 'Exclusive to Arena'  Um, that would probably be because no other station would actually want to air the show.  It's just such awkward television and I'm ashamed to admit that I sat through an entire 35 minutes of the show before finally turning it off.

Once I'd recovered from the bogan awkwardness that is WAG Nation, 
I did what any normal woman does on a Wednesday night.
Yes, I flicked on the computer for some heavy duty pinning
where I came across this little chestnut....


I laughed so hard at that one, I almost cried.

How about you?
What's your favourite reality tv show?
And please don't say WAG nation, 
because that could well signal the end of our friendship.
