[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 617831, member: 1550"] I have to agree that shows like daughter make many people up North think things about Southerners that are stereotypical and I'm quite sure...untrue. I can't tell you how many people have made crude southern daughter jokes around me, like everyone down there is that way. Janet, I was sooooooooooooooooo disappointed about Judge Judy. The fun of it for me was seeing who'd she'd tell off and who would win. Kind of a trashy way to pass the time, but I liked it. As soon as I heard it was figured out in advance (and they are NOT paid actors...but the case is finished in advance) I totally lost interest. I always did wonder if shows like American Idol were real or if they fudged the votes to make their favorites win. I mean, it's not like we'd know the truth. And I guess, although I can be quite shallow and watch "real life" shows such as Lock Up :), I can not make myself like the trials and tribulations of Honey Boo Boo and the likes of Dance Moms. My daughter likes to watch that young mothers show. I think it's good for her to see how hard it is to raise a baby as a teenager. I don't care if it's true or scripted. She can watch it all she likes, although I do not believe Jumper is the type of girl who is anxious to have a child. Still, can't hurt to have the show's help. [/QUOTE]
