      I want to see more drama, but not from these "fake people." Enough is enough. Their 15 minutes of fame has gone on too long. I want actors put back to work.

      Nothing has dumbed down the USA more effectively than reality shows have. A renaissance of good scripted programming is almost too much to hope for. Please advertisers, make it happen!

      sorry boys and girls, Reality TV is here to stay… A network drama can cost between 2-5 MILLION per episode, reality tv show cost about 200K per episode, and they get the SAME audience numbers, or even better than a drama. Networks are only in the game to make money and reality tv is a goldmine. Hate it all you want, but LOTS of people are watching reality tv and there is NO end in sight.

      Reality can't go away fast enough for me. Let's have more scripted! "Rizzoli & Isles" has been a big hit this summer.

      I've had the pleasure of coming across only a FEW good reality shows, while the rest TANK…
