guess um you go first 208.61 210.57 B: i mean i think to live vicariously 210.82 211.55 A: yeah 211.30 212.04 B: through other people 212.10 216.69 A: yeah i think like they they think like this guy is a normal guy 216.73 217.08 B: yeah 216.85 219.19 A: like me and this could be like me winning 217.70 217.99 B: right 218.83 220.53 B: exactly they can identify 220.84 222.67 A: exac- i agree i think that 222.88 226.74 A: you know like people even though they we're just watching i mean like everyone like 226.99 231.88 A: well not every one but people like friend and stuff like that but the like oh well on friends there supposed to be like 229.15 229.47 B: right 231.97 234.62 A: there parents pay for these apartments and they don't work 233.70 234.06 B: right 234.81 235.13 B: right 234.95 239.04 A: and then there like reality shows they just win millions of dollars so there actually normal people 237.54 238.27 B: (( )) 238.71 239.94 B: right 240.13 242.58 B: right i think they're curious about how people interact 243.03 246.41 A: yeah i agree and you know it's kind of mindless so you don't really have to like 243.19 243.62 B: and 246.64 250.85 A: uh it's not like jeopardy which is real people on t._v. 246.84 247.14 B: right 250.76 251.44 B: right 251.01 257.94 A: doing stuff winning money but those people are i guess smart or it looks like they really studied a lot of them look like 258.10 261.44 A: you know they look like their smart their nerdy and you don't want to watch them 258.61 258.99 B: yeah 261.12 262.19 B: right right 262.05 264.75 A: well i like them but 264.50 265.02 B: (( )) true 265.98 268.42 A: but yeah i guess but um 268.54 269.51 A: i guess it's like 270.07 272.35 A: i don't know even more popular now cause 272.45 273.15 A: they made it 273.93 282.52 A: you know they made it very like pop culture you know m._t._v. they had it and it seems like it's not just like women who are sitting at home during the day who are like you know 277.69 278.15 B: yes 282.55 282.86 B: right 282.90 283.79 A: house wives is like this 284.00 285.70 A: popular everyone talks about it 284.83 285.24 B: right 285.72 287.23 B: i actually think it's actually going out 287.83 289.08 A: i hope it is 288.69 290.38 B: think i read about it some where 290.53 291.41 B: article or something 291.93 294.81 B: about how it's becoming less and less popular reality shows 295.29 297.16 B: they said they're trying to figure out what the new trend will be 297.48 307.28 A: yeah you know i hope they go out cause they had survivor first it was like somewhere just a little you know i didn't really watch it then it was in africa next there going to be like okay 299.95 301.57 B: i know it's getting really old 306.01 306.57 B: i know 307.44 309.60 A: like in the war zone 309.31 309.71 B: right 310.15 311.77 B: right there somewhere crazy now 310.73 311.39 A: let's take 312.28 313.47 A: let's be like okay let's take 313.58 315.14 A: ten random people from california 315.32 315.81 B: right 315.34 317.57 A: and put them in the middle east and see what happens 317.71 320.17 A: there like okay 319.54 320.88 B: oh my god 320.69 322.06 A: that sounds cool 321.28 322.83 B: i can imagine 323.18 325.64 B: yeah that would be interesting 325.76 327.75 B: that might get some viewers actually 327.17 335.70 A: they'd be like let's put lesbian in like the traditional arab cultures where there like not aloud to talk 335.51 335.94 B: right 335.84 345.90 A: there's this thing like rosie odonnell went to my high school rosie odonnell with her new hair cut right into the battle zone and see what ten normal people do 346.04 348.44 A: when they have to face reality 348.08 349.67 B: oh i could imagine 350.29 351.93 B: i'm sure we'd get rave reviews 351.99 353.32 A: oh oh i bet 354.43 359.08 A: so oh god is there anything i'm trying to think i'm getting the other day 357.28 357.93 B: okay uh 359.21 360.09 A: but i um 360.20 361.12 A: was on the phone 361.38 363.41 A: people i had like one i had what do you think about illness 363.70 364.15 A: and like 372.41 377.19 A: thought i wouldn't get anymore phone calls from this company but this is a better topic cause this topic 374.48 375.51 B: how interesting 377.66 378.59 A: t._v. something you could 378.56 379.85 B: yeah everybody can relate to it 380.12 381.79 B: i mean i prefer like the sopranos 381.98 382.49 B: kind of show 382.84 384.21 A: i love the sopranos 384.12 385.22 B: me too so we're good 385.54 386.62 A: it's you know why cause 386.89 387.80 A: it's it has a 387.96 388.21 A: grip 388.55 390.04 B: it and they develop 388.67 389.89 A: that's why it's better to 390.66 391.81 B: the character development 392.21 393.03 A: yeah and 392.76 393.44 B: so good 393.35 394.83 A: i love mafia anything 394.89 395.67 B: oh really 395.26 398.67 A: if there was a mafia reality t._v. show i might watch that 398.40 401.70 B: that's so funny i think that would be very difficult to do 401.82 404.44 A: i know it'd be like 403.40 404.95 B: yeah a lot of wavers 404.70 411.74 A: these ten people from the witness protection program we've disguised their voices so you can't ever 407.55 408.51 B: yeah 412.56 413.85 B: yeah 414.51 418.80 A: so that's what i know i i think the sopranos i'm so sad there's only one more season left 419.34 422.47 A: i know i just it'll get crappy if they don't continue it 422.58 425.08 A: yeah if they they try to continue it it definitely then i guess 422.82 423.10 B: right 423.25 424.09 B: and if they do 424.68 425.73 B: right they have to end it 425.98 428.09 A: yeah i don't know i somebody's got to die 426.81 427.62 B: is very good show 428.79 429.51 A: soon 430.01 431.16 B: i uh yeah 431.40 433.01 A: who did think was going to die today 433.81 435.21 B: i actually thought that um 435.86 438.95 B: that at some point it was building up to tony getting killed by a 439.30 440.28 B: by a what's his name 440.62 441.15 B: serio 441.20 441.76 A: serio 442.27 443.87 B: but now i don't know i guess not 442.32 442.70 A: you know what 443.18 452.82 A: i was like you know what how cool would it be if they killed tony before the last season they can't do it because they'd have to pay him but that would be the most surprise ending a t._v. show 448.93 449.70 B: yeah they can't do it 453.07 454.11 A: what ever drink i think 453.69 455.10 B: yeah i don't see that happening 455.22 457.24 A: yeah i don't think they would do that but i thought 457.36 458.76 A: paul walnuts is my favorite 459.22 460.97 A: since like the first episode 460.68 461.17 B: oh really 461.08 463.54 A: and i thought that they were going to kill him and i was so happy they didn't 464.14 467.75 A: think they're going to kill jonny sack they either have to kill pauly or jonny sack 466.41 466.96 B: i don't know 468.81 470.62 A: eventually because you know 470.81 471.90 A: each one is going to like 472.09 473.37 B: yeah they're going
