If it weren't for American Idol, this show wouldn't have even made it through two episodes..... It resembles a begging little puppy that sits under the table, waiting for whatever is left of your chicken sandwich. If we could all just get up and change the channel, then your voice will be heard.... Remember: You CAN make a difference. Sadly, that is not what is happening now... We are letting this get out of hand. I wasted half-an-hour of my dear depleting life watching this filth. Now what would really make this a good show is if they tricked the actors: Perhaps throw in the Burger King Man, a smoke grenade, and a few bottles of hard liquor, and yes, I would watch it. But for now, I feel no suspense whatsoever. ******************SPOILER******************* For those of you that were wise enough not to watch this show, here is an overview of the plot: Nine unrelated 'people' are locked in an underground bunker, completely unaware of the twists that will befall them. They made sure to fetch the most different people on the face of the planet: A trucker, a preacher, a gay man, a handbag designer, a crazy man, a single mother, and others. Perhaps Fox thought that this would make for heated controversy. Wrong. These people are all actors, and basically this show is just a stereotype of every group of people packed into 30 minutes, once a week. How many preachers go around saying, "God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve, honey!" The answer: None. Preachers are meant to "share the love of God", not bash everyone that they see. Next, there is the 'psycho', who gives us a completely unrealistic view of mentally ill people, with his rants of 'I hate you all,' and the solitary behavior that Fox tries to stage. And the soccer mom: How many mothers would leave their children behind so that they can be locked up in a steel bunker for three months, with no contact with them whatsoever? Perhaps one that really despised the children. Don't fall for the 'Well, we need the money,' Crap. Please. And then there is the trucker, who is being portrayed as a simple idiot, believing everything that anyone says, just because he has a country accent. Yet another stereotype.. 'Tara hates you, Steve... Vote her off...*chuckle*' 'I'll vote hurrrr off, how durr she du thayat tu me.' So many stereotypes, so little time....
I end this review with one simple word: Prep0sterous.
