I love certain reality shows but I'm really annoyed by others. Pretty much any reality show on VH1 is terrible. A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila was one of the stupidest reality shows ever. It's just so trashy! The people weren't there to find love, they were there to be on tv. >_< I've watched almost every season of Survivor. Last season sucked but this season is turning out to be very entertaining. I love seeing how people interact in that environment. They have to figure out who they can and can't trust. As the audience we get to know most of what's going on and it builds suspense. Is Rachel going to figure out that Brad has the hidden immunity idol and get him voted off?! Oh no! It's great. I'm trying to think of what else I watch. Jon & Kate Plus 8! Now that is just an adorable reality show about a family with twins and sextuplets. Right now I'm really into The Millionaire Matchmaker but that might wear off because too many of the Millionaires are idiots. If Project Runway every has another season I'll watch that. It's fabulous. In my opinion, there are good reality shows and stupid reality shows. I'm sure the stupid ones outnumber the good ones. Would we be better off without reality tv? Probably.

I love too many movies but these three are above the rest: About a Boy Gattaca Someone Like You My Neighbor Totoro! I loved that movie. I agree, Hayao Miyazaki movies are awesome. My favorites are Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke. Miyazaki had an apprentice who made an animated film called Whisper of the Heart. It's worth watching.

Have any of you played the Desperate Housewives game? It's one of my favorites.

I love Grey's Anatomy but it does suck that everyone keeps leaving! ;_; I loved Christina and Burke's relationship and then he had to leave. (I really like her new love interest though.) George is definitely leaving. His character only comes by now and then to say a couple lines. I don't even want to get into Izzy's latest storyline... why would they do that?! >_< In a way it is turning into another E.R. The characters come and go all the time. They just bring in new characters to replace them. I do still love the show despite all of it and I think I'll keep watching unless Meredith or Christina leaves. By the way, I just went to their site on abc.com and they have a Grey's Anatomy game coming out! Yay! I hope it's as good as the Desperate Housewives game.

I'm Fionen from West Virginia, USA. I feel a little out of place because I'm not much of a book person. I read maybe 2 or 3 books a year. My hope is that this forum will give me the inspiration to read more and consequently become a little smarter. Some of the authors I like are Robert Jordan, Garth Nix, and Tamora Pierce. As you can see, I tend to stick with fantasy but I also read the occasional sci-fi and suspense. I'm ready to try some other genres. Maybe you guys can help.
