Dancing with the Stars is a spectacular reality competition that focuses on the glamorous and entertaining world of competitive dance. Dancing with the Stars show pairs a number of celebrities with professional ballroom dancers, who each week compete by performing dances. These are then given scores by a panel of judges. Viewers are given a certain amount of time to place votes on their favorite dancers, either by telephone or (in some countries) by the Internet. The couple with the lowest combined score (judges plus viewers) is eliminated, and continue in the next week. This process continues until there are only two or three couples left, at which point one couple is declared the champion.

Whether you are a comic book aficionado or not you might really enjoy watching Comic Book Men, American Movie Classics (AMC) venture into the world of "reality television". Host Kevin Smith, himself a popular director, writer, and actor in his films such as Clerks, Mallrats, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back in which he usually plays the character of Silent Bob, is co-owner of the Secret Stash along with Walter Flanagan, Mike Zapcic, Bryan Johnson, and Ming Chen. An expert in the world of comic book collecting enters the store and help them rate and buy or turn down some comics brought in by clients. Rob "Jack's Guy" Bruce is an expert and considered a popculturist in the field. Modern comic books are far more than the "pulp fiction" of old and today they are highly collectable along with lots of movie memorabilia that many collect, such as autographs. Those who draw for the comic book industry are now held in high esteem, and even considered artists. We who love comics will appreciate the collectors that preserve them so we can still enjoy those 10c comics of long ago and the Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash in New Jersey is the place to find them.

Most that have some form of celebrity status are beloved by millions! Take athletes and especially Olympic medal winner, very few do not have enormous fan clubs and generally nothing but praise is bestowed on them. But there are some "stars" whose light shines a little less bright in many people's eyes. Some examples of this type of personality are Jersey Shore's Snooki (Nicole Elizabeth Polizzi). She is just one of those personalities many love to hate! It's just something about their persona or maybe they actually are somewhat despicable. Another example and is also seen on the pilot episode is Kim Kardashian (Keeping Up With The Kardashians). Those who have animosity towards Kim are most likely jealous of her fame and fortune for being a non-celebrity. Mario Lopez (Saved ByThe Bell, Nip/Tuck) hosts and is part of the production crew for H8R which is the texting short-cut for Hater. There could be a long line up of celebrities to appear on the program, it's up to them to come forward and admit they are not exactly beloved by all. Some that have been booked thus far include Eva Longoria, Barry Bonds, and Kat Von D. The producers hope to get many more including Mel Gibson, Joan Rivers, Lady Gaga, and even Sarah Palin.

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.

Reality programming has reached new heights (or is it a low?) when we see a sexy "blonde bombshell" living out her life in front of E! television cameras. Kendra Wilkinson, a former gal pal of Hugh Hefner, has moved from the Playboy mansion and married a football player named Hank Baskett. Now she must adjust to married life plus becoming a mother for the very first time. Moving from absolute luxury into the "real world" of a just above average lifestyle must have been a shocker but she copes. How can dusting, dishwashing, and vacuuming compare with the free and fun loving life she once enjoyed? Kendra began her television career in another short lived series called "The Girl Next Door" which was similar to Three's Company and its star Suzanne Somers role. Blondes always seem to draw attention especially when they are slim, sexy, and single. The Girl Next Door premise was soon replaced with marriage and motherhood however when real life Kendra married her true love, Minnesota Vikings Hank Baskett. Domestic life can be funny and Kendra makes it work.
