"I miss the good old days of reality TV when people were just people. The opportunistic types like Silas Gaither and Blake Mycoskie really turn me off."


Are you referring to Real World or Cops?
Because the cast of Survivor 1 could be considered opportunistic.

USA=opportunity

Abby7: Would they be called Navelactics?
Should we warn our daughters of the evils of 'Navelympics' before they are old enough??

She could try out for Fear Factor. So far on the shpw she has been afraid to sleep in the same room with Gerry, and she has called Dani scary. Obviously she is easily frightened. She would be a scream on that show.

Ring-ring-ring

Lisa: Hello, Phills bar, this is Lisa and this is two-fer night--- how may I help you?

Agent: Lisa, this is your agent. How did the "No Excuses" jeans audition go today?

Lisa: It seems hip huggers are on their way out. I just don't look good in high-waisted pants. So no luck.

Agent: I should have seen that coming.

Lisa: Did Playboy ever call back?

Agent: Yeah, they said they never got the pitchers.

Lisa: That's strange, Chiara dropped them in the mail over three weeks ago... wait a sec... lemme ask her... she's just got back from a break...

Tell her to go buy some really nice camera equipment...unless she wants to get in line behind all the other reality show "celebs" who have made it. Wait. There is no line....

She could try to work really hard and maybe one day she could be the middle bottom square on Hollywood Squares.

I wish the BB hgs would stop thinking they have a future in show business. BB1 thought it and they didn't. BB2 did as well and allI see is a soft porn in skinamax with Hardy. BB3 will be the same way. It may open very few doors but it seems to slam others shut. There is a reason Will says he wants to put BB behind him.

I recently read that all these reality shows mean way less work for "real" actors so hollywood is really down on the folks on these shows. That would dramtically reduce their chances for a show biz career.

Agent to lisa: Chrysler has contacted me and they want you in thier new Jeep commercial.

Lisa: Really?

Agent: Yes they are going to disply how well the jeep runs through the forest.

Lisa: What part do they want me to portray?

Agent: They want you to be a bump on a log in the forest and after watching BB3 they say you are a real natural talent.

Lisa: Cool, ask them if they can work my belly button in as a knot on the bump on a log and if I can bring Dani for some direction on how to play the part.

Chance, that's an interesting point. I never thought about it, but I'll bet it does tick off the Hollywood community that the networks are giving so much air time to these unscripted shows with amateur casts. I know I'd be ticked if I spent years studying theater and paying my dues only to be beat out of a television or movie role by a game show contestant.

I think just before the threatened writers' strike a few years ago, the networks were ready to rely more on reality shows to pick up the slack, so tv writers miss out on jobs too because of the reality show craze.

I'll confirm this as fact.
I have many TV industry friends that really hate the reality shows.
It takes money and work right out of their pockets.
There are only so many hours of prime time.
As the networks replace 30 and 60 min comedy and drama shows with news and reality stuff, that cuts down on the number of available work days for directors, gaffers, grips, writers, A.D.'s, actors, extras, etc.
Big Brother is taking up 3 hours of prime time every week. Think of how many crew and cast would be involved with CSI for 3 shows?

Yeah, they hate these shows. And they don't even want to work on them because the money is WAY so much less--- plus there is no 2nd airing. No syndication.

I could go on... but I think you get the PICTURE.

Oh, but Laffy, she is on BB, the shows where stars are made. She will have agents lined up at foth waiting with bated breath over which firm she'll choose.

She'd make a good Vanna. You have to know the whole alphabet to do well at that job.

In addition to the antipathy Producers feel towards game shows that eat up broadcast time, the bottom line is they just don't hire amateurs. You'd have to be extraordinarily talented to step from BB to a soundstage, unless they were using you as a novelty guest. Not exactly something you'd want to build a career around.

Having said that I think Lisa has a fair amount of "It" - that indefineable quality that grabs your attention.

I think her job as bartender in a strip joint is about as far as she can go.. at least there she doesn't need to know the alphabet and who knows, with a decent boob job she could set her sights on becoming a lap dancer. She doesn't have to talk at all, and some men like that talking like a baby stuff.
