Dear Casting Directors, take two

editor's note: I have no idea how this blog only published as a title. The annoying thing is I had written half of it and then when I came back to finish, it was gone, with a published title. My apologies.

Why is everyone on reality TV so annoying? I know that is a loaded question. I know they have been annoying for a LONG time (remember Melissa from the Real World?) (Wait - Actually Amy and I loved her. And owned some of her "art.") But this season is loaded with so many people that I can't stand that I am ACTUALLY CONSIDERING NOT WATCHING SOME SHOWS! I know. Drastic. And I know it won't happen. But here they are. The worst casting mistakes on reality TV this season.

1. Vicky

If Satan and Hitler had a baby and then had Osama Bin Laden raise it in a crack den watching the Saw movies day and night, you could maybe come close to this level of evil. I was literally jumping up and down on my bed the week that Amy C blindsided her and eliminated her husband, only to cry two weeks later when Amy C spared her. Remember how when she had a chance to see her kids she wasn't interested and then when she had a chance to win some NFL tickets, it was the greatest day of her life? And remember when her and her husband threw a weigh-in and then pretended they had not idea what happened? Grrr...If she is in the final 3 with Ed and Heba I don't think I can watch the finale...Well, OK I will, but I will be really angry and probably eat Joe-Joe's while I watch

2.Kelly and Christy
Remember these yahoos? Remember how they were FINALLY free and FINALLY super- AWESOME now that they were divorced?!! Man, if they weren't on this race they would probably be home ironing for their crappy husbands! Now they get to be single and wear ironic t-shirts and make fun of Dan and Andrew (let's be honest, they deserve it.) See ya, ladies!

3. The entire cast of StylistaWow. Amy doesn't even know how I stomach this show. I watch it for the articles, of course. With Katie and Megan leading the way, has their ever been a group of people that you disliked more? The actual people who work for Elle aren't much better.

4. This lady
If I wanted to see unattractive people on TV, I would move to England.

#3 Stylista. I stopped watching that show because the cast was either A. pretending like they were uptight and high maintenance or B. pathetic. Remember the guy who had the panic attack for no reason? And the fat girl given special treatment? I was hoping that the evil shop owner would win by the second episode and gave it the Midseason Cancellation after the third. If you finish the season you have an iron constitution, J.

#4. Who the H is she? Seriously.

This is Topher - I'm too lazy to change logins.

But I sometimes think #4 looks like Hilary Straga.

#4 is Carla from Top Chef. She's really nice, but odd looking fo' sho. Who is Hilary Straga?

A - The break down was great. And I too noticed the special treatment for the Fat Girl. Lot's of extra comments about how fashionable she was until about episode 5 when it all came crashing down and she couldn't wear ANYTHING in the closet. Hello, there are shoes and purses in there. Get over your fat self. I am strangley obsessed, so I will make it to the end.
