I have been watching this show on and off since it used to be named "Talk Soup" with Jon Hendersen, but I have been watching it religiously since I started using Tivo. I love how great Joel Mchale is with any quip on reality shows and contests that are on television these days, because honestly, the people on many of these shows are just ridiculous. I personally try to watch as little reality TV as I can, but like to know the antics aren't going unnoticed (and un-ridiculed). I assume that many people feel this way and a show made entirely to poke fun at ridiculous story lines and "reality stars" makes my weekend that much better.
