Trash

Fox has outdone themselves yet again. This show is pure garbage. If you want to watch women who think way too much of themselves act spoiled, bitchy, children, and guys act like self centered, wimpy, whiny kids that can be led around by their hormones and not their brains, then this is the show for you. As long as America continues to watch this scripted "reality" junk, it won't go away. And this is the worst, most pathetic of that genre. Quit watching, and maybe this trash will go away, and the idiots on the show will realize that their fifteen minutes of fame is fifteen more than they deserved.
