Good Morning America

Another American reality based show on the TV? Well why not as they are all cash cows for the networks that produce them. This time around we can observe the ultra wealthy Paris Hilton as she goes about her "normal" every day affairs. Co-starring with Paris is Brooke Mueller former wife of Charlie Sheen (and mother to their twin boys Bob and Max). The concept here is somewhat based on how difficult it can be to be famous. Constantly hounded by the paparazzi who follow her every movement, Paris Hilton must find ways to avoid them when ever possible. Paris Hilton has been successful in her primary role in life; that being as a wealthy socialite who does not need to do anything unless she wants to. Her reality show has been compared with "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" as being light yet intriguing fluff that some find amusing. The TV program takes us along as Paris and Brooke travel to Las Vegas, Spain, or Cabo for some drama and or romance.

The competition is high and so are the stakes for the U.S. version of The X Factor. Judges have been selected from the cream of the celebrity music crop and with a recording contract worth $5 million the winners in each category will need to be at their best and give the performances of their lives. Simon Cowell is creator of The X Factor and will oversee the talent as well as the judges, assuring the show goes on in an audience pleasing manner. Each of the judges will handle one of the four assigned categories that include boy singers (ages 12-25), girl singers (ages 12-25), group singers, and those who are over the age of twenty five. Unlike other programs of this sort there is no upper age limit for the competitors. Judges will mentor those in their category and offer help and advise as the competition progresses. Getting that advise from the likes of Paula Abdul, Nicole Scherzinger, L.A. Reid, or Simon Cowell himself will be invaluable to the aspiring singers as they have helped fashion many super stars in the music industry. There are to be five competitive stages involved: Auditions by the producers, auditions by the judges, a Bootcamp, visitation to the judges houses, and finally the live shows where it all comes down to a single winner or group. As the five stages of the competition progress, it promises to get more exciting each week

Love Island is a reality TV series that originated in the UK and has since been adapted in several countries, including the United States.

The contestants must pair up with someone of the opposite sex and the couple who receives the fewest votes from the public are at risk of being eliminated.

After a hiatus of several years Fear Factor is back bigger and more daring than ever before. Reality shows are so popular today, mainly because they give viewers a glimpse into lives of real people who are living real events most of us seldom encounter (or would ever choose to). With a theme similar to the enormously popular Survivor, Fear Factor makes reality stars out of everyday people who can stand the test of some pretty dangerous stunts and dares when they compete against one another for a monetary reward. The prize of $50,000 is a big incentive and one that makes otherwise sensible folks take risks most of us are barely able to watch! Now there are four teams, each consisting of two people to a team who have been involved in some previous relationship with each other. Not being able to complete a stunt spells elimination and as host Joe Rogan says in a disclaimer "The stunts were supervised and designed by professionals! They're extremely dangerous & shouldn't be attempted by anyone at any time or anywhere!"

Talk Show the Game Show is a television show where guests compete in comedic challenges inspired by talk shows. Host Guy Branum challenges the guests to perform tasks such as giving a monologue on a random topic or playing a game of "Name That Fruit." The guests are judged on their performance by a panel of celebrity judges.

Moving from the Real Housewives of New York to Bethenny Ever After with a stop off for Skating with the Stars we find that Bethenny Frankel has been a really busy girl. Oh and she also had a baby girl and turned 40! How many "housewives" can claim all of that in a short span of time? Who would want to? Bethenny has a very protective husband, Jason who tends to be overly defensive when it comes to protecting his wife and family life. But when there are cameras in the house it is difficult to keep much from being disclosed. The surprise birthday party that was planned to celebrate Bethenny's 40th birthday became awkward mostly because it really wasn't a surprise from Beth's perspective (again the cameras don't let much get by them). Will Bethenny flip out and go into therapy? Look for a warm fuzzy scene where the entire family plops down in the bathtub for some tender moments and water logged skin. The parents, a new baby and even the new puppy "Cookie" with sunglasses on had plans to go to the beach but find the tub works quite well.
