Reality TV Marriages

Meet The Barkers

Being Bobby Brown

Breaking Bonaduce



John and Kate Plus 8


Hogan Knows Best


Newlyweds

Chaotic

Til Death Do Us Part


Would you do a reality TV show?

1) Yes, totally, we'd beat the odds!
These couples were bound to break up, the show just sped it up!

2) No way, no how, never ever! I'm not joining this 'curse'.

3) I'd love my own show...just not as part of a couple.

  2. I don't think anyone would find me interesting enough to base an entire reality show on! (; YOU, my dear however....might be worth something!! (: love u xx

    ReplyDelete
  3. No way. You're not just in the spotlight while the show airs. You'll be gracing the cover of tabloids for years!

  4. Well, this is hard, because we would make such an interesting, train-wreck of a reality show. However, if I had children, the answer would definitely be a resounding, "NO!" I would probably turn it down now too, unless the show focused on us from a different angle...not just our "coupledom". On a completely unrelated note, last summer, I saw Linda Hogan in Las Vegas wearing a hot pink thong bikini with her 18 year old boyfriend. Then, she was also at the Palm's Place grand opening party looking like a hot mess with her 18 year old boyfriend, while simultaneously chasing around one of my friends. It was quite entertaining.

  5. As an employee of Vh1 I'd like to take credit for some of these... even though I had nothing to do with it! haha!

  6. no thanks. j and i like our privacy too much. i'll admit however...i'm a total closet newlyweds fan...i STILL watch the episodes...i have them on dvd...i can't help it. lol.

    ReplyDelete
  7. I make an arse out of myself way to often to have that memorialized on tv!

    ReplyDelete
  8. i wish. seeing as i dont think i'd ever have to face the should i/shouldnt i of reality tv, i'm not going to stress myself out now about the decision.


    what i meant to comment about, however, is ms electra's hair. want. need. am now going to pout about....

  9. Hell to the No! I enjoy reading US Weekly, I have no desire to be IN US Weekly :)

    ReplyDelete
  10. I definitely wouldn't like one following our every move as a couple :s that would be so invasive! (However, I do enjoy watching them haha)
    I think all people would see was me falling over or bumping into things haha, I am so clumsy!
    Would you every be on one if given the chance darling? xxx

    ReplyDelete
  11. LOL, there's definitely a pattern there. Hmmm, I think it'd be comical if we did - and we'd definitely keep the marriage working - since no one would be watching, LOL.

    Thank you for your sweet, sweet comments, Iva. You are so kind in all the comments you leave - for me and your other readers. xx

  12. HA!!! (4) oh hell no! first of all i sound like a 3 year old on camera and that 10 extra lbs would make me starve myself like every celebrity. no thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  13. No way! My relationship is not worth it. I go with #2!

    ReplyDelete
  14. well, i don't have cable but for the record, i'd like to say "hell no." :)

    ReplyDelete
  15. No offense to anyone who LOVES the guys listed in those reality shows...but it kind of doesn't help if you're already married to a douchebag to begin with...just saying. Haha. If the guy has a big enough ego to want to have a reality show about him...chances are he's not going to fling off the hordes of pretty girls digging their claws into him off camera...
    Seriously, I wouldn't want to join the reality show bandwagon. It's just a bad, bad situation. I can't imagine having my whole life exposed on television. Once your air of mystery is gone, people get tired of you real quick.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Oh I dunno. I just think Pittman's a hoot, so people would think he's funny. I do treasure my privacy though.

    ReplyDelete
  17. there was also bam's unholy union (i heard they're on the brink) and the show with carmen electra...ugh they just seem like they're destined for divorce the minute they sign up for a reality show! i wonder if scott baio and christopher knight are still hanging in there despite their reality wedding shows...

    ReplyDelete
  18. absolutely not! never ever. we're way too private for that kinda stuff...however, I have absolutely NO problem watching these train wrecks over and over again!

    ReplyDelete
  19. I wouldn't do a couples reality show. But I do find myself thinking as though I were on Big Brother. I will say something to someone or think something and then I will wonder...what if I was on Big Brother right now? I wonder what clips they would show the audience or the jurors in the jury house.

    Occasionally this will prevent me from saying something stupid because I will be all worried about how America will perceive me.

    Okay, yeah, I sound a little crazy even to myself right now. Gotta GO!

  22. Hahah!! My best blogger friend just suggested making a reality show.. i'm sure it'd be fun for a few months... but after wanting kids i'd push all the cameras away!

    ReplyDelete
  23. no way!!! it is bound for break up.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I'd do anything for the right price...

    ReplyDelete
  25. im pretty sure none of them are together anymore! sad...

    ReplyDelete
  26. oh no way Jose, my reality tv show would be so boringgg! full of online shopping and just nonstop eating, haha. i like my life out of the limelight, and what i choose to reveal in my blog for only supportive friends to see :)

    ReplyDelete
  27. i don't think i could do it, i enjoy my privacy too much ;) if there was some huge amount of money involved it might persuade me though.

    ReplyDelete
  28. ::shudder:: no thanks, relationships are tough enough without cameras and the judgment of the general populace...

    ReplyDelete
  29. OOOOOOOOFAH!!! it is kind of looking like a reality show is either the kiss of death for a relationship, or that if you WANT to do a reality show about your relationship you are doomed.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Considering most of those marriages have divorced? No. I like the way my relationship is with TL now... a little private, and fun in our own ways! :)

    ReplyDelete
  31. No way! I think it would be hard to be yourself in front of cameras and it is super sad what happened to these stars, they became someone they weren't. Soo...that would be a resounding no. Have you heard that JS is coming back to do her own show? Interesting, huh?!

    ReplyDelete
  32. I don't think I could do it. I'm sure I'd love the fame and fortune that could come with it...but it just seems like all reality tv couples fail.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Nope. My personal life will be my and my [future] hubby's biz, and our biz only...

    ReplyDelete
  34. I'm not in a couple so I'm DQ'ed, but I have to say that Shanna Moaklar always gives me the strangest compulsion to do my makeup really slutty lol.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I honestly don't think you could pay me enough to be a "reality star," although quite frankly, my relationship and my life in general is not even fascinating enough to have its own show in the first place!

    ReplyDelete
  36. I guess I would, but all it would be about would be us going shopping, us going out to dinner, us walking our dogs, us going to work. I don't think people would watch. LOL!

    ReplyDelete
  37. haha i just blogged about this same thing the other day. I would do one too!

    ReplyDelete
  38. It's so odd they all ended up divorced.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Oh god, this is really kind of sad, isn't it!?

    ReplyDelete
  40. How scary! I don't think I could do it. The track record is speaks volumes! Ha! XOXO

    ReplyDelete
  41. I'd never do that...it's a marriage killer! I don't think any of them had a marriage that survived. Marriage is hard enough as it is.

    ReplyDelete
  42. absolutely - No way, no how, never ever! I'm not joining this 'curse'.

    hahaha eek!!

    ReplyDelete
  43. It's a wonder couples even try to do reality shows anymore! Odds are so against you!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Hi darling! Great idea for post! Thank you for wonderful comments! Wish you a great day,

    FM~FP~AF

    ReplyDelete
  45. I am not sure. I do know that a solid marriage can transcend any reality show. Maybe these marriages weren't so solid to begin with!

    ReplyDelete
  46. no way would I, it is like a death sentence. Despite on home much people will say they won't change because of the show they do.

    ReplyDelete
  47. I could not do a reality show that focused solely on my marriage. No way. You're just tempting fate.

    ReplyDelete
  48. I feel like all of these couples have split!!! So I dont think I would opt for this.... :) xxxooo

    ReplyDelete
  49. I am not sure that reality television would always break apart a couple, but it really does seem to add an unneccessary burden to something that takes effort to maintain anyhow. Plus the couples that sign up to be televised are never exactly ones that are destined to remain together. Either they are in it for the fame, or feel some need to show the world that they are in love, whilst doubting the relationship at the back of their minds. However, that being said, give me some trashy tv anyday lol.

    Hope you're having a beautiful day dear :)

    ReplyDelete
  50. I would do one....but there will be guidelines of when and where they could tape!

    ReplyDelete
  51. Im too shy and jealous of my privacy...so my answer is B!

    But for millions $$$...I could think about it! :)

    If I'm not wrong all those couples broke up?

    ReplyDelete
  52. No way! I could not deal with the invastion of privace!

    ReplyDelete
  53. I would like to think I would but I take too many naps, so my show would be pretty boring.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Phoenix took the words right out of my mouth! Relationships are enough hard work!

    ReplyDelete
  55. i could do one on my own - but i think its too much on a couple! have we seen any successful examples?

    ReplyDelete

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my blog and comment! Hope you are having a great day!
