I Hope You All Die In A Fire

You know, I have hated reality TV since it's inception, but occasionally I will get trapped at the gym with the long line of tvs showing nothing but those programs with the closed captioning on.

And I realized something. Every singe person on those shows is a whiny, immature brat who would be much happier and would be enjoying whatever 'predicament' they were if if only the possessed the slightest spark of adventure, disciple, or endurance.

I've never heard of The Mole, but I really wish reality tv would finally, finally die off.

The Mole was a show in which there were eight contestants, and one of them worked for the network. They would go through challenges while being sabotaged by the titular Mole, whose identity we do not learn until the end. The challenges are both physical and intellectual, and can be really weird, like using clues to find tickets for a carriage in library books and then running to the designated spots to catch the carriage. Or they can be just random things, like herding sheep, or hand-washing a load of laundry. It took place all over Europe, and was hosted by Andersen Cooper. The original season is available on DVD, and only about 8 or 9 episodes long. It's worth a look. I loved that show so much as a kid, and watched it again last year.
