    So MTV is looking for people that don't actually exist for a reality show?

    Oh yeah. If there's a source I want to turn to about reality and dealing with irresponsible behavior, it's fucking MTV.

    @Adhominem: It's pretty damn hard to talk tough when you have an effeminate lilt and valley girl inflection in your voice.

    Is there some law saying that if you put up a webcam video where you advocate corporal punishment you have to sound really girly while you do it?

    I saw the first one where there was the competitive Golden Tee gamer who kept ignoring his girlfriend, and a group of guys who couldn't go to their jobs at Benihana because they couldn't pull themselves away from Steel Batallion and the Buffy the Vampire Slayer game.

    *Cue to host*

    "So, how do you feel about the world today, and it's issues?"


    "Tissues?! I need some just about now."


    "Umm, yea.."

    I'll never understand why people want to show the whole nation that they have a psychological problem. "Hey look at me, I'm mentally ill!"


    And obviously people will get the wrong idea about video games and ruin the fun for everybody around them.


    And to end the rant: I also hate that music channels aren't about music anymore. (Although I could argue that pop music isn't about music anymore, but that's another discussion)

    @UndergroundDreamer: Note to yourself that MTV stands for 'MusicTeleVision.' Not so much anymore.


    It's more like 'Maybe our programming is music related, but we are trying to appeal to a younger audience these days insteadTeleVision.' these days.


    Am I right?

    Didn't they do one like this already?


    I remember it just showed how people bad a living off playing video games.


    My mom needs to go on this show...she plays too much Sims 3.

    @MellowJade: I don't think this needs to be a show. I feel all of these shows are demeaning to the people that may have a genuine issues. I've been told by my doctor that I have a serious deficiency in moral fiber, but I find shows like this to horrible. I think they're disgusting, thrusting a genuine problem into the world at large. The problem I have with this is that it should be a family issue, between the person with a problem and the family, making a show about INTERVENTION (they have one on A&E) demeans the problem.
