Well they eventually had to come out with a show so people with very low IQ's can watch and follow. I guess they did with this show. Always remember just because you're not very smart doesn't mean you aren't wanted.

Eventually? Just about every reality show on TV today is made for idiots. TLC and networks like it have the most ridiculous ones. Operation Repo. Duck Dynasty. Oh, and you can't forget the cream of the crop...Honey Boo Boo, a program about a fat, disgusting, low IQ family with a fat, disgusting, low IQ child, and for very low IQ viewers.
What programs do you think get higher viewership? Honey Boo Boo, or Cosmos? Amish Mafia or the NBC Nightly News? Finding Bigfoot or the State of the Union address? Operation Repo or Mountain Monsters...HA HA, that was a trick question. They are both of the very low IQ nature, so they both have very high viewership.
Have you ever seen the film "Idiocracy?" That wasn't a comedy. I think that someone actually went forward in time, took notes, came back, then made a documentary about what he/she saw. I know it's a ridiculous film, but it definitely seems to be where the world is going.
I'm going to become rich because I am going to start my own reality show. Here's the premise. It is going to be sort of like a "Candid Camera" show, only very, VERY dumbed down, so it will get high viewership. It will simply be seeing people's reactions to having fat, smelly people vomit on them. Every week we will have new fat, smelly people vomiting on unsuspecting victims, and we see how they react. They will just be walking down the street, being followed by someone with a hidden camera, of course, and they will stop at a random park bench filled with people and vomit on everyone. I figure it will be a HUGE hit. Perhaps we can have a fart special, where instead of vomiting on them, they can back up to them and fart in their faces. Won't that be a hoot? We could separate the episodes by the food they ate. Pizza week. Chinese week. Eggs and beer week. Liver week will be the finale.
If the plural mouse is mice, and the plural of goose is geese, why is the plural of moose not meese?
Incorrect. I have watched it. A full episode a few weeks back and about twenty minutes of one last week. I fully get the gist of the show. I wouldn't be able to comment on it had I not seen it. As for the other programs, I have seen a few minutes of each, which was enough to make assumptions about them as well, although it doesn't even take a few minutes of viewing them to make assumptions about them. You can normally tell what a show is about and what it is like from the ads that are plastered all over the channel, and sometimes on other channels that are owned by the same company.
As for Honey Boo Boo, I had to see it to see what all of the hubbub was about, as it is an extremely popular show. After seeing it, the fact that it is an extremely popular show worried me, as it shows that our country is full of idiots.
I'm not saying that people should only watch shows that challenge the mind and shouldn't take breaks from life and enjoy funny programs, but this kind of programming is blatantly made for idiots, as no one with even average IQ would be able to stand more than two or three minutes of it. It's a completely ridiculous show about a family of completely stupid people. I don't mean just different...I mean stupid.

All you're doing is saying it's "made for idiots" and not giving any reasons why. Surprisingly, I'm not convinced. If you're going to make an argument for your position, then please do so. Don't just lay out an assertion and expect me to accept it because you say so.
I never said I was trying to convince you. It's my opinion. Nothing more. As for explaining my reasons in feeling this way about this show and others like it, there's really nothing to explain. This show requires absolutely no thought on the part of the viewer. It doesn't enhance our knowledge of anything. It's definitely not what anyone would consider an intelligent program. You aren't going to find all that many intellectual people viewing this type of programming.
This kind of show attracts the type of people that would tune in, week after week, to watch a show about, as I said in an earlier post, farting on people. They would think it would be the greatest program on earth.
If they were to add anything to this program, or others of the same caliber, that required thought, whether it be trying to figure something out, or trying to think of past events, they would lose most of their viewership.
Why I feel this way is as follows: take a random number of viewers of the program and have them take a GED test. How do you think they would do? Probably not very well. Not very well at all.
I'm sorry if my opinion offends you, but it's the way I feel. Again, though, it's just my opinion, not a fact.
If the plural of mouse is mice, and the plural of goose is geese, why is the plural of moose not meese?
Your opinion is useless. All you're saying is "hey I think this is dumb" and then you stop at that. I ask "why do you think it is dumb?" and you give me nothing. You just keep layering on these baseless assertions, typing word after pointless word as if that's going to impress me. It didn't work.
Look, I'm telling you as a person who's getting up there in his television viewing years, this show ain't the kind of BS you want to think it is. It's actually really good. This is Deadliest Catch, not Honey Boo Boo.
