"Reality" TV Shows Hit Rock Bottom, Keep Digging

College guys would definitely win this.

Vomit competition

"Maybe you thought reality TV hit the lowest of the low when "Fear Factor" contestants devoured cockroaches, or when gold diggers paraded their wares in hopes of marrying a millionaire, or when Tila Tequila got a second shot at "love" with 10 guys and 10 girls.

Those shows look like "Masterpiece Theater" compared to what's coming.
Take, for instance, "Hurl," an eating-and-regurgitating competition in which contestants gorge themselves on everything from chicken pot pies to peanut butter sandwiches, then get strapped into spinning contraptions -- whoever vomits last wins
."

I was hoping the source of this post was also The Onion, but it's ABC.

So this is what it looks like when a nation in decline...

After reading the last line, I put my hand up as to say, "Fuck it... no more."

Maybe the switch to digital TV will be a benefit for those currently on the rabbit ears.
