Okay, I haven't a thread remotely close to this, so I'll admit it, I've watched a few of VH1's celebreality shows, as they like to call it.
I haven't watched all of them, and the few have been out of infatuation. The latest infatuation has been "I Love Money 2." If you don't know, basically they took the "Love" reality reject (mainly "Flavor of Love," "I Love New York," "Rock of Love," and apparently "Real Chance of Love," itself a reality show spin-off) to star in a "reality" show where the sole purpose to win $250,000. This basically takes away all pretense that the contestants are vying for anything other than fame and fortune. Two rejects from the previous season are already included in the current season (Entertainer and Heat).
The reason this show has become such a train wreck for me (as in that I just can't look away) is that in this all pretense is dropped. No one is hiding that they are in it solely for "fame" and fortune and the quarter million dollars at stake. As such, even from the first show, the challenges the contestants are put through take a backstage to alliance and back-stabbing. I'll admit that I manage to watch the previous season, despite what that might have done to my IQ. Still, in the first season, at least two contestants flat out quit, siting that they could no longer take the backstabbing that was going on during the show and wanted out.
In fact during this season so far
Okay, so I've admitted to a guilty pleasure, but does anyone else watch this show, especially for the sheer depravity at which they will watch their fellow human being debase themselves?

one contestant made blew-up during the very first elimination, then couldn't figure out where the exit actually was).
