"Hit Me Baby One More Time

I saw a commercial for this yesterday -- this is one of the few that sounds really good so I'll be checking it out.

[kayemjay]

There don't look to be many winners in this bunch.

[chippers21]

I do not see anything that interests me on the list, but thanks for posting.

[bluediamond]

Thanks ShainaT for posting this list! I might check out 'Hit Me Baby' but don't think I'll be watchign the others...but you never know.

[dlabrie708]

Oh, come one, you just know there are going to be a few laughs in this one...LOL! I don't think the network will allow a dad to do okay on his own...what the heck fun is that!....LOL.

Meet Mr. Mom
Dads run the household while moms go on vacation on the NBC reality show Meet Mr. Mom.

I don't think I saw it listed up there, but they're supposed to have a show like American Idol, but it's dancing instead of singing?

I'm looking forward to that one.

The Cut might be interesting to watch, but not really interested in the rest.

It was the last one on Shaina's list:

Dancing With the Stars
Professional dancers pair up with celebrities on this dance competition show.

I agree with others, might check out Hit Me Baby One More Time. Other than that I think I'll take a summer reality break. I hope the success of shows like Desperate Housewives, Lost, Grey's Anatomy and House will cause the networks to turn back to regular programming. I enjoy Survivor, Amazing Race and American Idol and can tolerate The Apprentice but it is ridiculous the stuff they are coming up with trying to capitalize on the reality craze.

The Mr. Mom show I will probally watch...I would love to see dads manage as moms do lol

I really am just anxious to see another Big Brother

[mayfly]

I was looking forward to the dance competition too, and for some reason I thought it was different than dancing with the stars.

[rafala]

There is another dance one on Fox, I beleive, that is like American Idol. The commercials show an overweight man dancing and make a comment about 2 left feet. This could be good but dancing can be subjective I think. I am not crazy about "street dancing" but so me people love that.

I think the music one tonight could be interesting.

Did anyone watch Hit Me Baby One More Time last night? I caught part of it....it was a bit cringe-worthy but I enjoyed seeing Arrested Development and Tiffany again. I may check it out next week...Vanilla Ice will be on!

Another reality show this summer not listed here is called Beauty and the Geek. It's on the WB and pairs pretty and dumb girls with nerdy and smart guys. Surprisingly, it's kind of sweet...

I watched most of show Blue..the british announcer & his smile is just so corny..had never heard of arrested development before-unique style. I've seen Vanilla Ice doing some type of hosting on E! or one of those shows.
