    I've said it before, I'll say it again....

    ....I would 1,000 times more prefer to watch Mike Rowe ("Dirty Jobs") slog through knee-deep sewage than spend 30 seconds watching any reality show, and ESPECIALLY any breed of parasite bored rich "housewives". Dear God. There's no END to this stuff!
