Flashback: Cheaters, the Most Trashtastic Reality TV Show Ever

Megan Wants . . . a Murderer?
I bet Megan Hauserman (previously from Rock of Love 2 and I Love Money) did not think that her money-hungry ways could blind her from seeing a potential murderer in her midst. But that’s exactly what happens on Megan Wants a Millionaire, VH1’s show about a bunch of douches who want to date a gold-digger.

Another Writer's Strike?!
Oh, wait. Whew! It's just a novelist's strike.Rock of Love Presents: Stroller Derby
In case you've been hiding under a rock like I have, the object of Rock of Love With Bret Michaels is to win a date with the front man of once-hot metal band Poison. The chicks competing for this thing are scary. Even scarier, though, are their opponents in this episode.What Is the Craziest Reality Show of 2007?
These days, you can't turn on the television without catching some oddball reality show. Some folks love these programs, others disregard them as "trash," while I just consider them crazy fun.
