Reality TV Burnout Symptoms
Do you have any of the following symptoms? Are you unable to communicate with your family because, “my show is on!” You get in trouble in your office because you can’t stop comparing notes about the people who got kicked off of last night’s Dancing with the Stars show and how unfair it was. You sweat with each and every “elimination” round. Potato chips are a staple in your Reality TV diet. You buy every magazine on the newstand to see if there are any real-life hookups from your favorite Reality shows. Or finally, you cherish January because American Idol is back on the air. You may have Reality TV Burnout. Don’t worry. We can help. Vent, browse — just let it out. We all may have had enough. Take back your life. We know you can do it. Quoting our sweater friend, Fred Rogers, “Sure, I knew you could”.
