Celebreality Gone Bad

Sigh. I know I'm not one to talk, but this celebreality stuff is getting out of hand. I think I miss the good ol' days of "Real World" and "Survivor" where regular Joes were the stars.

Two new reality shows, featuring celebrities, recently premiered. I already commented on the Coolio show on Oxygen. WTH? That's about as random as Billy Graham on Cartoon Network.

Last week was the premiere of 50 Cent's new show on MTV. It's basically "I Want to Work for Diddy," starring 50 as Donald Trump. Wait. I mean, it's like "The Apprentice" with Diddy. I'm confused.

Anyway, in honor of these horrible reality mishaps, here's my list of the Top 10 celebrities who never should have had shows. The ratings support my findings, but even if it was a highly-rated show, I think you'll agree. Here's my list:

1. 50 Cent - "The Money and the Power"
2. Coolio - "Coolio's Rules"
3. Tyson Beckford - "Make Me a Supermodel"
4. Paris Hilton - "Simple Life"
5. Flavor Flav - "Flavor of Love" and "Surreal Life"
6. Bobby Brown - "Being Bobby Brown"
7. Ozzy and Sharon - "The Osbournes"
8. Martha Stewart - "The Apprentice"
9. Snoop Dogg - "Fatherhood"
10. Mr. T - "I Pity the Fool"

If you didn't know that these folks ever had reality shows, you're lucky.

So, which shows top your list of reality shows that should have never been greenlit?

Heroes: Hopefully, It Will All Make Sense In Time

Rumor has it that two head writers of "Heroes" have been terminated. I won't rejoice in anyone's misfortune, but I'm looking forward to seeing what the new story lines bring.

The latest episode had more time travel via Hiro, who fell into some sort of trance that allowed him to see what was going on in the lives of the heroes BEFORE the series began.

The most interesting reveal was that Gabrielle and Elle were once close. She was working for the company and ended up helping Gabrielle become Sylar by basically feeding him others with abilities.

We also found out more about the Petrelli family, and we got some background on Claire's fire-throwing mother.

Hopefully, it will all come together and seem relevant in the near future.

What do you think? Are you ready for the back-and-forth between past, present and future to end? Is that the reason this season seems to be dragging along?

Real Housewives of ATL: Low Budget What?

So, I think it's official. NeNe and Kim are no longer BFFs. Honestly, I think Kim is upset because when she first shared her singing aspirations with NeNe, Nene joked her. Her feelings were hurt, and she started to question NeNe's friendship. That was magnified when the ladies told Kim how NeNe imitated her, mocking her voice, her looks and even her hair!

I think DeShawn is the one who told Sheree, and Sheree was more than happy to tell Kim; I think. So, Kim retaliated by snubbing NeNe at some lingerie place and then sending her a ghetto-fabulous text in which Kim called NeNe a cheap dog, but not that nicely.

Although I don't think NeNe should have been joking on Kim's skills, I do have to agree that Kim cannot sing. She apparently smokes a pack a day, and is tone deaf, but for some reason she feels she's ready to record an album. NeNe was right to tell her friend the truth, but she could have handled it more maturely, and she should have realized that was a sensitive area for her friend, not fodder for teasing.

So, where does that leave the girls? NeNe's on the outs and stuck with DeShawn. Kim and Sheree are best buds, and Lisa is still about her business.

Will Kim and NeNe reconcile? Will Kim make an album, or will luck smile on us? What do you think?

The Hills: The End of an Era

Audrina has left the building. We knew she wasn't totally happy living out in the pool house, but her announcement did seem somewhat sudden. Audrina is a new homeowner, and she wants to take full advantage. She even goes so far as to invite Justin to move in, but he decides to just "let it happen." I think that translates into, "slow down, Audrina."

Audrina wasn't the only person moving a bit fast. Heidi should have taken it easy on the tequila. While working a big Bolthouse party, she decides to throw back a few. Of course, her bosses are none to pleased, but she doesn't comprehend the severity of the situation until she's fired. Getting drunk and talking back to your boss usually results in termination -- or so I've heard -- so, it was only a surprise to Heidi.

Will she leave the working force and sit around on the couch all day with Spencer? Will Justin move in with Audrina? What will the girls do with the empty pool house? Will Audrina and Lauren's friendship survive the move? Will Audrina and Heidi hang out more?

ANTM: So Long, Sheena

We saw this one coming a mile away. Sheena finally got the boot on the latest "ANTM." The judges said she hadn't yet figured out how to turn down the sexy without going completely bland.

In the bottom two with Sheena, was Elina. If you ask me, it's time for Elina to go. Week after week the judges give her the same criticism, which means she's not improving much. Tyra said her reserved, controlled nature translates into stiff modeling. However, she's been giving yet another chance to prove she can get it.

I know this is nothing new, but I'm tiring of Tyra's contradictions. She stresses personality so much, but then Joslyn and Sheena get sent home. While rigid, cold Elina sticks around.

So, which is it? Is personality the big must-have, or is it really about the modeling? Pick one, Tyra, but let's not continue going back and forth. Cool?

So, what did you think? Should Sheena have been sent home? Will Elina ever loosen up? What was up with the brothel challenge? Did Miss Jay remove his pants, or was I having a nightmare?

Housewives of ATL: Destined for Greatness?

Is it me, or is DeShawn a little off? She claims to be "destined for greatness," but I don't see it. The last time I checked, having an in-house staff (with salon included) does not indicate greatness. Plus, if that fundraiser was any indication, she's got a long way before hitting mediocrity. She didn't even break even and spent twice as much throwing the party than she did in profit. Sad. Her husband didn't seem to surprised at his wife' failed attempt. Interesting.

In other news, it looks like Kim and NeNe are one episode away from estranged. Kim has decided she likes Sheree and wants to be her friend. She's trying to get the three of them to hang out. However, NeNe isn't having it. So, where does that leave NeNe? Alone. That's my guess. At a time when she's struggling with her identity and sending a son off to college, I think friends would be good thing to keep around. We'll see what happens. My guess is that NeNe will eventually mend things with Sheree, so she can stay in the circle.

What do you think? Was Kim wrong for trying to get Sheree and NeNe together? Would it have been "fake" for NeNe to hang out with Sheree, or just mature? What is wrong with DeShawn? Why is Lisa so cool? She's still my favorite.

Heroes

The latest episode was better than last week's, but still lacking compared to past seasons. There were a few highlights.

• Parkman learns how to better use his powers.
• Sylar saves Peter by throwing him out of a window.
• Miya is "cured" of her strange power.
• Blonds Ellie and Claire unite.
• Papa Petrelli kills Adam in a most horrible way.

Did you watch? What do you think of the new season so far? What is Papa Petrelli's ultimate plan?
