Boy, for someone who can't watch the stuff, you sure know a lot about

Ready for a small reality check? The best reality show of them all,
by a wide margin, is The Amazing Race, previously raved about here.
(I'm even watching this current "family edition" season, which is a
complete botch marred by a family of racers whom I would personally
enjoy to see get beaten senseless with large rotting swordfish.)
The Amazing Race is a Jerry Bruckheimer production.
