The wierdest reality show ever

I never though this would happen, but it has. I have finally found a reality show that goes beyond my comprehension. I mean this goes way, way, way beyond anything even the Japanese have ever cooked up. This makes Takeshi's Castle and Ninja Warrior or even Banzai look relatively sane.

And the winner is Storage Wars. It's show about a bunch of people who hold and participate in auctions of stuff found in abandoned storage lockers somewhere in America. No I am not making this up. This blows my mind on so many levels, first of all there is a group of people who make their living by buying stuff that other people once stored in storage room and later forgot about. All the stuff I have ever had in storage is the sort of thing that you haven't bothered to haul to the dump and everytime I move and have to haul this shit either to the basement or if unlucky to attic, I wonder what is this stuff, where did it all come from and what the fuck it is doing in my storage space. And somebody is making money by buying this kind of stuff and selling it on.

Second Mind Fuck of this show is that someone thought it would make interesting tv. So interesting in fact that they put the word WAR in to the title and you know when they do that its something radical and awesome. The cast also had cool title's like, The Gambler, The Young Gun or The Collector as if that would breath some character into three guys with sunglasses. Its a bunch of people in an auction where someone is selling other people's abandoned junk.

The third mind fuck is that this show made it into the second season. I could fathom how some studio executive was either temporarily insane, wasted off his/her ass, high on something, being controlled by wizard aliens or being blackmailed into putting this show on the air, but how in the hell this managed to make it to the second season. Apparently somewhere on this planet there is a bunch of people who found this crap interesting. I could barely make it through one episode. Even the best reality tv editor couldn't turn this into interesting or dramatic.
