Say what you will about reality shows, and I’ve said plenty — even before some rocket scientist let a maniac with an assault conviction, reportedly involving his then-girlfriend, onto a dating show a few months before he’d be charged with murdering the very next woman he’d get involved with. (I’m no great fan of the show’s star, Megan Hauserman, but that seems a bit lax.)
Toby Young wants you to know he’s sorry. Really sorry. Like somewhere between “Honey, I swear I didn’t know she was your sister” and “Honey, I accidentally killed a drifter.”
The cable landscape can be confusing for even the savviest of viewers.
You won’t see this on CNN, but the world’s top scientists are quietly assembling, crossing political divides and international borders, to confront the greatest menace mankind has ever seen. They’ll enlist only the bravest volunteers, all experts in their chosen fields — think “Armageddon,” just less Michael Bay-ish — in a last-ditch attempt to save humanity. Their mission: Travel back in time to January 2003 and shut down “The Surreal Life” before it gets on the air.
