    Jam930 is that a pic of you or someone else..I mean..damn!

    Anyways, If there was a bloodsport show on tv I would sure as hell watch it, but I'd still think it's morally wrong.

      People like this will make it possible, to televise murder because it will garner ratings. It's morally wrong, but we *watch* it nonetheless.

        Well, I thought this thread was going to be different and I would be able to rant about how much I hate reality TV (so much to the point that my AP portfolio revolves around my distaste for it.) The fact that "Reality" TV has more writers than most sitcoms is ironic.

        But about the "BloodSport" idea. I think it is a possiblity. Seeing that Reality revolves around our primitive instincts as humans. However, I do not think it would get to the point of killing due to the laws set forth in America.

        "After all we live in a society that pays homage to the shallow media god; where the war in Iraq, the appearance of a seal in the Tama River and the sudden marriage of a popular actor (Yosuke kubozuka) attract the same attention."

          Reality TV:

          Survivor = good. This is a wonderful psychological game. It's fun to see 16 people all being the most Machiavellian they can be. They have to pretend to like the people they're secretly plotting to stab in the back. Anyone who watches one episode of this is likely to think it's stupid, but anyone who watches one season of this is likely to think it's deep, strategic, and very interesting.

          OMG STRANGERS IN THE SAME HOUSE! = terrible.

          DECIDING WHICH PATHETIC SIMPLETON I WANT TO GO OUT WITH LOL! = terrible.
