I am sort of disgusted with Ryan Seacrest, actually. He took those girls (forget their names) who were part of the "bling ring" -- who broke into celebrities homes and one of the girls had been arrested a few times for possessing heroin, and, because they were attractive and had made headlines with their robbery's, tried to make a reality show of them. Ugh. So disgusting. I'm so glad that the public never picked up on this! My daughter watched the show a few times (wish she picked better shows!) and said that the mother of the two thieving,, drug addicted daughters, said that her family was "very religious" and that they would pray by holding hands, having a moment of silence and then said in unison, "And so it is...."What????So glad the public never took up with these girls, who had much less to offer than the Kardashians! But, yeah, Ryan Seacrest will pretty much make a show of anyone who will make him money,imo.

That is pretty much like rewarding them for their crminal ways. For each show they probably make about a $1000. Glad it didn't last long.

I won't be sad if it doesn't come back. It was kind of boring and irritating when they fought. It's just so stupid.

Now Gene Simmons Family Jewels I liked. It was too funny how Gene always got himself into trouble, like when he locked himself on the roof while trying to set rat traps. He's just so dopey that he's kind of lovable for a man who made a living as a big scary rock star. And his family is also adorable. Wonder what happened to that show?

Another reality show that I enjoy is T.I. and Tiny the family hustle. I do not even know who T.I. was but apparently he's a famous rapper but I like him and his family. All the little ones. He seems to be a good father with them.

Yeah, back to the Kardashians, I still don't understand all the excitement around them either. But since there isn't much else to watch on tv, I might keep watching. That's funny though, unlike the other reality shows I watch/watched, I don't get that same feeling of being inside of a nice family.

Regarding Gene Simmons, I thought there were a lot of good episodes. I agree that he's lovable. I also appreciated all his kooky business ideas. He seems very driven (business wise) & is consumed with making money. He was always coming up with funny business ideas like the bikini carwash. What a hoot! Shannon liked to spend it as fast as he made it too (loves to shop). She and her sister were always going shopping. I agree, the family was great.

I was never a KISS fan so it was kind of interesting how I stumbled across Family Jewels. I happened to tune in one day just for fun and after that, I was hooked.

I think the reason the Kardashians don't seem very interesting to me is because they do sit around all day.

One thing I do like about the Kardashian show is Bruce Jenner. He seems to be genuine and such a good father to his step-kardashian kids. Once when Khloe found out he was using some type of torture collar on her dog to train him, she confronted him. He just apologized and said he wouldn't do it again. His comments show that he's still considering himself their father and wants to set a good example for them teach them. Now he's my favorite in the whole show.

One other reality show I like is Celebrity Apprentice. It's funny to see these celebrities and how they act in real life. I wouldn't mind Kim and Mayte being on it. I would treasure the looks on their face when Donald Trump fires them or makes them squirm in their seats, while they practically beg for their lives. That would be awesome.

Yes, I think Bruce Jenner seems like a good dad and a good guy. I don't know much about the other Kardashians, I never really watch it but my daughter's had it on in the background and I've seen bits here and there
