Megan Wants a Millionaire, not a Murderer

Sign in to disble this ad
So, I dont know how many of you pay attention to the filth that is American Reality Television, but my girlfriend just eats this stuff up! And, by living with her, I watch this stuff for its (often fake) hilarious dramatical content. She's a fan of shows such as Flava of Love, Rock of Love, Rock of Love Bus, Daisy of Love, Charm School, I Love Money, Real Chance of Love, etc. Most recently, having debuted about 3 weeks ago, is Megan Wants a Millionaire, a show about failed contestant Megan, from some season of Rock of Love, as well as I Love Money, looking to find true romance with some rich dudes.

One of the contestants, Ryan, has made some headlines today:

yeah, this is all sorts of messed up. read about it on the superficial a few days ago. the guy cut off his wife's fingertips and took out her teeth, thinking he's some csi villain or something. just sick.

and vh1 learned the hard way that populating their shows with strippers and sleazes would eventually fail them. what a train wreck.

While leaving the room is certainly an option, I enjoy staring at boobs (my girlfriends, the TV, the ones on TV, the ones on the ones on TV), its kind of a hobby. Like, if the name wasnt taken already, Id call myself the Boobie Watcher.

Anyways, does anyone know how I can contact VH1 and start a petition to keep the show on the air? I need to find out which millionaire sleazeball Megan ends up with! In the meantime, I'll keep watchin the Stallionaires!

I haven't watched more than 5 minutes of TV in 10 years, and I've just been convinced to watch less.

Oh, and let's not forget her unrememberable performance on Beauty and the Geek. Ok, that show is funny at times, have to admit.

I'll say the same thing that I said when the juice was on the 405 at full speed, "innocent people don't run or hide."

Next time I'm up at Chronic Cantina or somewhere in OC, I have to call Matticus.

Absolutely. Why would you disappear after making the report yourself if you didnt have anything to hide?

Definitely do. I live in Hacienda Heights, just north of the OC border.

I think he did a public service in fact we should round up all of these idiots and put them to sleep.
Or perhaps I'm just jealous I don;t have a giant trust fund that I can suck on the teet of and never have to contribute anything to society.

This case has provided us with the important news that breast implants can be used to identify a body even after all other traditional means have been exhausted.

Which is why as a precaution against being labled as merely a "John Doe" I'm going to do something about both my flat chest and my lack of identifiable features.

I don't think he had a trust fund. I believe he was a real estate mogul.

Reality TV, it grates on me, and so much fake plastic surgery-I much prefer home grown.

Madman, as for as a reality check goes - we have 70 plus channels in our cable TV lineup, and this old movie watcher often can't find 3 movies scheduled at certain times of the day-most being the 'same old' hollywood movies played again-and-again. TV has changed...
