description

Swamp People is a reality TV series that first aired on the History Channel in 2010. The show follows several teams of alligator hunters who live in the swamps of Louisiana and hunt alligators for their meat and hides. The hunters use various techniques and tools to catch the alligators, including baited hooks, nets, and harpoons.

The show has received both praise and criticism for its portrayal of the alligator hunters and their way of life. Some viewers appreciate the show for its portrayal of a unique and often misunderstood way of life, while others have criticized it for glorifying the killing of animals and perpetuating negative stereotypes about the people of Louisiana.

Despite the controversy, Swamp People has been a popular and long-running show, with over 12 seasons and 200 episodes. It has also spawned spin-offs and merchandise, including books, DVDs, and clothing. The show has introduced viewers to the dangers and challenges of alligator hunting, as well as the rich culture and traditions of the people who live in the Louisiana swamps.

Reality & Talk Shows
Long before the advent of The Glass House on TV screens CBS has warned ABC not to air this reality show, which was too similar to Big Brother, in their point of view. Notwithstanding this fact, ABC has released The Glass House on primetime and CBS filed the long-promised lawsuit against them. Fortunately, while the monsters of big TV are fighting, we have a chance to compare these TV shows and make our own mind on whether they are similar or not. At the first glance they are: same cameras-wired houses, same teams of contestants performing very stupid and not so much tasks, sometimes squabbling, wrangling bullying and sparring with each other to the audience sweetest delight. However, when you take a closer look on this so-called Big Brother rip-off you will probably notice some differences. First of all, all the contestants going to be eliminated from the show go to Limbo, where they wait for America's decision whether they will stay or abandon the game. The second difference is more significant and literally determinative: almost all the things contestants do in the show is determines by voting of the audience. To underline this, all means all: audience decides what the participants have to eat and wear today, what they have to do and how they should act to win the viewers' gratitude. The third difference is, there are no players deciding whether to eliminate somebody or no, everything depends of audience decision. It's a weird thing but the absence of need to eliminate your "fiends" does not have any positive impact on contestants' virtues. We see the same "douchbaggery" and painful "obnoxiousty" of the people are blooming, and maybe this is the most principal similarity between The Glass House and Big Brother. Evidently the CBS lawyers could use this fact to file their suit.
