Blog 15

This week’s blog I decided to talk about reality shows that are trying to find these people love. The amount of reality shows based on love is ridiculous; you can’t meet someone for the first time and know each other for about what like a month? And believe you are in love with them.
Age of love, it plays on NBC but I have never seen or heard of it. It actually started about two years ago. There are so many reality shows out there helping people find love I can’t keep track of them anymore. The reality television show “Age of love” has a male contestant looking for love with girls either in their 20’s or 40’s. They classify the younger women as the kittens and the older women as the cougars. The first season of Age of love featured tennis star Mark Philippoussis who was 30 years old while on the show. He ended up choosing one of the “kittens.” Another show that is totally off the wall is “A shot of love with Tila Tequila.” Tila has both female and males trying to win her heart over. This is where women are getting bad names, like many of the videos we have watched in class, women are playing out with these party actions because they think that is what everyone wants. A knock off show of Tila Tequila is “A double Shot at Love” which is with twins that are both bisexual, and of course all the boys think this is “hot.” There are many many other shows that you have all heard about dealing with love. I think that these reality shows dealing with love is the most popular topics of reality. There are shows such as The Bachelor and Bachelorette, Bromance, Daisy of Love, Flavor of love, Mr. Romance and Perfect match and those are just a few.
I must admit I do watch some of these love reality shows. I think the only reason I watch them is because personally I find them hilarious, all these girls are completely head or heels for these guys that they barely know. Even the person picking one partner from about 20 others is outrageous. I think that if these people are going on these shows that there must be something wrong with them, like why can’t they date someone from around their city? Maybe it might just be to gain the fame, which most people are becoming famous from reality TV shows now; one word I have to say is crazy.
