What TV execs finally had to swallow was that reality shows have no back end – you can’t put them on Neflix or Hulu when these bullshit contests have already had their winners decided. One and done.
I find it insulting they even call them “reality,” when it’s obvious everything’s cooked. And I was thrilled to see the ginormous ad for Sierra Mist along the 405 Freeway this week. A little truth in advertising.
Get this: I know an actress who was cast as a single woman on “The Bachelor.” Yes – cast. She was living with her boyfriend at the time, and ABC begged her to be one of the chicks on the show and pretend she was single. She declined, and the network wanted her so badly they paid her three grand an episode. Reality!
In conclusion, I submit to you evidence B: a real casting notice released this week. Enjoy:
AMAZING RACE: Lifeguard Episodic
[LIFEGUARD] A Caucasian male 20-30 years old in good health, sport look. Dark hair, interesting and friendly look up to represent LA in the show. Think David Hasselhoff in Baywatch!
Your witness.
