My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiance'
« on: January 13, 2004, 01:56:34 PM »
Is anybody going to actually watch this claptrap for entertainment value?  I think Fox has sunk to a new low here.  "Joe Millionaire" was one thing, but deliberately causing pain and anguish in a family and calling it fantastic entertainment is downright disgusting.

LOL, admit it, you're going to watch it. Just like chicken necking to see that accident you're passing on the freeway :)

I hope it's not on at the same time as America's Shiniest Objects.

Nah, actually I'm not.  No chicks in skimpy clothing = no real entertainment value in an "unscripted tv" show.

I think somebody owes me some money. This is a direct rip-off of my last marriage!

I've got a suggestion, how about a Reality TV series about people who are outraged at Reality TV?  Each week, a camera crew could film different families watching reality TV and edit their unscripted reactions into something funny.  I nominate Mr.Black and Gofaster for the first episode.

Reality TV is for morons and no-lifes.

I'd rather be unconscious than watch that crap.

Sounds like a winner to me!  When's sweeps?  Let's book it!  


Just one problem.  How do we incorporate babes in bikinis into the mix?  Maybe instead of a studio set we could use a hot-tub overlooking a beach.  Yeah, that's the ticket!  We got us a ratings winner!
