This is exactly why I picked the Amazing Race in the first round. There were a lot of shows that I wanted to take, many of which have subsequently been chosen, but I want to make sure I'm picking only shows that I actually watch (or have watched), and there aren't many reality shows beyond TAR that I've ever watched, and even fewer that I actually enjoyed.

I'd rather get my 22nd favourite sitcom (which will still probably be a pretty good show) than be stuck with some "reality" show that would make me want to poke my eyes out if I ever watched it.
