So between our last two meetings, and three sessions this past week, Meg and I have engaged in lengthy conversations involving the mtv generation reality shows flooding the airwaves today: 8th & Ocean, Laguna Beach, American Idol, Real World, Project Runway, Bachelor, Survivor, America’s Next Top Model (I don’t watch that), Project Runway and even Blow Out (the list goes on and on, but we’ll stop there!) What these casual conversations tell me is that you - our clients - have even more time to keep up with the latest “reality” tv happenings than we do! One of our grooms even admitted to tearing up while watching a recent American Idol (we’ll keep his name private… to protect the guilty. Ha!)
I often poke fun at Meg for her “mini-obsession” with terrible reality shows (hand to my heart - I’ve caught her watching Flavor of Love on VH1 before), but she isn’t the only secret watcher; I read the other day that reality shows account for 58% of all American broadcasting. Obviously, we are not alone.

Charles -
I cannot *believe* you just told on me. The ONLY reason I tuned in to watch Flavor of Love was to watch that Pumpkin girl spit into New York’s face - after they made such a big deal out of it on Best Week Ever - I LOVE that show!
Don’t go airing my dirty laundry - I know where you live!
