As for me I think Project Runway would have to be my favourite. It's entertaining, it's a competition, the contestants actually make something and it's a creative process.

"Hey, let's dress the girls up in RAW MEAT and make a photoshoot out of it! Yeah!" Ugh, insipid, gross, and totally not inspiring.

If you like the modelling thing "Make Me a Supermodel" is way better than "Top Model" and there are both guys and girls competing for the price. As I see it "Top Model" is all about making Tyra Banks look good and doesn't really have that much to do with the actual fashion industry.

Top Chef easily. The Ultimate Fighter I tune into sometimes since I love MMA.

Though I've also found myself drawn to dancing shows. Not that "with the Stars" crap, but watching amateurs on that Dance Crew show and SYTYCD every now and then is fun.

Of the "big time" reality shows, I think I like The Amazing Race the best.

I've watched Make Me a Supermodel. It's a snoozefest. Soooo boring. And from the looks of it, I highly doubt that any one of those contestants would ever become a supermodel. The spinoffs of America's Next Top Model, like Australia's Next Top Model and Germany's Next Top Model HAVE been successful in launching respectable careers. The winner of AusNTM last season has gone on to walk at New York, Paris, Milan fashion weeks for designers like Lanvin and Louie Vuitton and Alexander McQueen. Russia's Next Top Model winner, Ksenia, has gone on to walk for Versace, Gucci, and Armani. It's insane how successful these girls have become while all of ANTM winners have been complete flops. I don't think I single ANTM girl will ever make it to NY Fashion week's runway, let alone Paris or Milan. I expect the same kind of failure for Make Me a Supermodel hamsters as well.

I can't believe I forgot to mention this in my last post but I LOOOOOOVE Jon and Kate Plus 8. Like, head over heels in love with the show. The kids make my ovaries go nuts. After watching the show, all I wanna do is start popping out babies.

I like that Survivor contestants are becoming more and more, well..tolerable. I still hate that Rob Mariano was on SIX reality shows! Six! And he hasn't won anything in his life!

the best reality show is out your window.

So you think you can dance
