Andrea Seigel's Riff this week on reality shows describes why a program like "Survivor" isn't really about endurance and "Say Yes to the Dress" isn't really about gowns — the shows probably wouldn't be so popular if they stayed true to their topics.
But for every successful reality-TV show, there are a few dozen washouts. Here is a look back at the lowlights.
1. "Chains of Love": Single men and women are shackled together to determine compatibility, like "The Bachelor" crossed with a chain gang.
2. "Pirate Master": "Survivor," but on a pirate ship.
3. "Skating With Celebrities": Exactly what it sounds like.
4. "Skating With the Stars": Exactly what it sounds like again.
5. "Married by America": Crowd-sourced matchmaking.
6. "Love Cruise": "The Bachelor" meets "The Bachelorette" on a cruise ship.
7. "Boot Camp": Civilians undertake the kinds of physical challenges experienced by military recruits. Not fun to do; not fun to watch.
8. "Mr. Personality": "The Bachelorette," except the lady has to choose among men wearing full-face masks. (Hosted by Monica Lewinsky.)
9. "Black. White.": A black family experiments with life in whiteface, a white family in blackface. Really.
10. "Murder in Small Town X": Hybrid of a reality show/game show/entire-town-size murder-mystery dinner-party game. What could go wrong?
