13 – Fear is Real: Be Sort of Afraid January 17, 2009
Posted by tvcrawlspace in : 13 Fear is Real, Reality TV, Reviews , trackbackYou want to know how to make a reality show really scary? Put the number 13 in the title. Now you’re talkin’! Then you have the 13 (there it is again!) contestants competing for $66,666 dollars in cash prize money. Holy cow! That’s over one twentieth of a million dollars. I could live forever on that kind of money. But wait a minute. Look at all those sixes! Didn’t I read somewhere that it was evil to have three of those together? Let me count 1,2,3,4…..oh my God! That’s five sixes! This must be the scariest, most evil reality show that ever ever existed! NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
The ill-conceived 13 - Fear is Real on the CW takes cornball to a whole ‘nother level. It’s kind of like a halloween edition of Big Brother, wherein the usual cast of failed actors and deluded losers live together in an old cabin out in the woods, and receive tape recorded messages from a guy who calls himself the mastermind. They must follow his deep voiced instructions to the letter and endure various trials and tribulations in order to stay in the game. This includes such activities as handling snakes, getting face time with rats, midnight canoe trips, and being buried alive. The esteem challenged contestants are play-killed one at a time until one lucky winner receives the evil prize money. Tune in or die! Ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Hmmm. A trick? The link to the new site brought me right back to where I was! Or is it the same, just .com, instead of .wordpress.com?
Thanks for stopping by today! I wish I could comment more but we haven’t subscribed to tv in about two years or so!
I wouldn’t try to trick you Steph! It only looks the same. Your second guess is correct, I have moved to my own domain. My blog will still look the same, although I did adjust the theme to make the text larger in some places.
What is really evil about this program is that the TV execs behind it are evilly cheapo. Reality TV is very cheap TV to produce! Who wants to sit down and watch it with ten zillion commercials shoved in your face every two minutes? NOT ME!!! A mindless, tasteless show produced by corporate oinkers. I’d rather watch Howie Mandel.
