Those of you who frequent theTVaddict.com on even a semi-regular basis know how little I talk about reality TV. So when I do take the time to mention the lowest genre in television (see: WHO WANTS TO MARRY A MILLIONAIRE), it must be for an important reason. Tonight, DANCING WITH THE STARS returns for a [...]

Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?
By theTVaddict on February 28th, 2007 at February 28th, 2007
Last night I arrived home only to discover that (gasp!) my PVR had run out of space and failed to record VERONICA MARS (Cruel World why do you do these things to me!?). Luckily, Rogers cable (my cable provider) allows me to watch the west coast feed on KTLA, so after erasing some a ton [...]

By theTVaddict on February 12th, 2007 at February 12th, 2007
You didn’t shed a tear during last night’s special two hour installment of EXTREME MAKEOVER: HOME EDITION. For those of you who don’t know a Cylon from a Klingon, a quick explanation. A Cylon is a robot (in human form), and if didn’t tear up during last nights tribute to a true American hero, well [...]

Quick — What do Diane DeGarmo, Josh Strickland and Frenchie Davis all have in common? Aside, of course, from the fact that all three have used 14 of their alloted 15 minutes of fame, the trio of former AMERICAN IDOL contestants currently are all appearing on Broadway (in Hairspray, Tarzan and Rent, respectively). And while [...]
When Models Attack!
By theTVaddict on September 20th, 2006 at September 20th, 2006
If a girl is whining about having left her two children behind in order to pursue her dreams and another young lady — and we use the term loosely — is balking at the notion of doing a nude photo shoot, it must be time for the new season of AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL! In [...]

SURVIVOR 13: Ethnic Diversity Edition
By theTVaddict on August 23rd, 2006 at August 23rd, 2006

That said, I know a lot of readers LOVE the original reality mega-hit, so here’s some news. Direct from the PR department of CBS: CBS today announced the 20 new castaways who will compete in SURVIVOR: COOK ISLANDS [...]

This morning, ABC’S GOOD MORNING AMERICA (Holy Network Sinergy Batman!) announced the ‘Stars’ that would be performing in DANCING WITH THE STARS 3, premiering September 12 at 8pm. The list was made up of the usual bunch of no-name celebrities with a few nostalgic choices thrown into the mix. While I wasn’t surprised to see [...]
30 DAYS = Great Reality TV
By theTVaddict on August 6th, 2006 at August 6th, 2006
Regular visitor’s to theTVaddict.com know how little I discuss reality TV. Why haven’t I jumped on the bandwagon like the rest of the world? Two reasons actually. First off, I can’t deal with watching people embarrass themselves on TV. Whether they’re eating worms for money, cheating on their partners, or willing to throw away any [...]
