Reality in Review, Reviewed!
Britain has many of the same reality TV shows that the US does, but their own version of them, and they take them to the next level. Case in point, Big Brother and The Apprentice. Not only do you have the hour long shows, but they are followed up by shows reviewing the main show. Last night was the premier of The Apprentice on BBC1, which was followed by The Apprentice: Your Fired on BBC2 which was a panel/clip show that reviewed what was just seen on the main show. Same cases exist for Big Brother, which has Big Brother's Little Brother, X-Factor (the British version of American Idol) has The Xtra Factor, etc etc. I just think its a little intense that even crap TV has its own post-game recap.

I think Jersey Shore has one of those weekly recap shows, too.
In my mind, it's the only reality TV worth watching.

I haven't familiarized myself with Jersey Shore, but I hear nothing but good things. Such as "When we talk about teachers, and we try to lay all the blame on them and we say, ‘why can’t that teacher get that kid’s score up,’ watch Jersey Shore. Watch it. And tell me what teacher could possibly have reached anyone of them, to get any one of their scores up, in any subject."
