      @@m1zxry_tt832 no the writers and journalists are scared because an AI chatbot can gauge what the fans *actually* want and copy paste with far more accuracy than they can. Hence why they're pushing the "they're coming for our jobs" fearongering they're pushing. Maybe they should learn to code?

    @thebigmystery7841 Год назад +54

    Depressing fun fact! A lot of these shows came out during a big surge of reality tv, the reason being is because around that time was the last writers strike. So this was networks way of having shows airing with minimal writing because the craziness of the people hired was enough to fill the air time. Thats why they also tend to be...uh...not great

    11:37 well do be fair usually bullies pick fights based on people who know (or more like believe) they can take on so I think it's not cringe, it's justice, they are on the receiving end on what they themselves are doing.
    but personally I would like to have the satisfaction of mauling them without worry about them playing the victims afterwards (cause seriously, most of them when shit hits the fan they play the victims)

Apparently, none of the reality shows I watched were on MTV which is just as well because whenever I would watch MTV, I'd get a set of however many music videos, a commercial break and another set of however many music videos because that was what I thought that channel was for because the full name of the channel is basically: Music TV. But I live in Canada so I guess the USA's MTV is different from Canada's MTV.
