Reality TV's 10th Anniversary

*Guitar_Raph* · 07-12-2010, 04:09 PM

It all started back in 2000 when CBS became the first broadcast network to introduce a new type of programming; reality series. Since then, it's been going strong for 10 years. What are your all-time reality series (game or non game)?

My top 10 list.

1). AMERICA'S GOT TALENT; It's nice to see a wide variety of talent from a rock band to a magician, from a kid who plays music to an old comic (Grandma Lee).

2). THE NEXT GREAT AMERICAN BAND: Short lived Fox series that showcased bands American Idol style, but with instruments. I remember seeing Tres Bein's frontman playing a guitar that looked like Fleegle's (The Banana Splits).

3). WHO WANTS TO BE A SUPERHERO?: Marvel genius Stan Lee created that series on Sci-Fi Channel.

4). MOOLAH BEACH: KYLE SEARLES ROCKED! I knew the green player from Texas would make something of himself. As for the game, Jr. Survivor & watched the first teen reality game all the way through.

5). THE CONTENDER: NBC/ESPN show & one of the few male only reality shows (compared to Pro-Fan & Grandstand; male only game shows) where they competed in boxing. Sly Stallone had a hand at this.

6). THERE GOES THE NEIGHBORHOOD: 7 families from Atlanta, did without electricity in their suburban homes on this CBS series.

7). THE GREAT AMERICAN ROAD TRIP: NBC seies where 7 familes were in rvs, coing down U.S. 66 from Chicago to LA. One family didn't have to cross state lines after being eliminated, because they were from Tecad & got eliminated @ Amarillo.

8]. PARTRIDGE FAMILY: VH-1 series where actors were chosen to play characters for a new Partridge Family (except Chris, Tracy & Reuben Kincaid). The series failed.

9). WIFE SWAP: ABC series where mothers trade families to live with bizarre families.

10). THE APPRENTICE: Stopped watching it when they discontinued civilians for all-stars. You're Fired!
