Open Letter

Addressed to:

Gemstar-TV Guide



We the members of Intelligent Fans Against Reality Television have decided to send this letter to your organization in protest of certain programs being placed into the “Reality” category within the Program Guide of cable and satellite television systems. Reality Television as we know it is the lowest possible form of entertainment on the airwaves today and as a result attracts viewers of low intelligence and sense.

Programs that indeed attract a more intelligent audience on networks provided by organizations as Discovery Channel or Food Network often may appear to be similar to “Reality” shows however are more documentary or informative in nature, and should not be labeled in the same category with garbage like “Survivor” or “Flavor of Love”.

The members of our group often disregard any program with “Reality” as the category to avoid being subjected to bottom of the barrel content, and the incorrect categorization of intelligent programs may lead to non-members with similar tastes as us missing out on such stimulating and informational television shows.

Contained below is our list of programs that we feel should be put into a category other than “Reality”:

Mythbusters
American Chopper
Monster Garage
Dirty Jobs
Deadliest Catch
Jeopardy!
Ace Of Cakes
Throwdown with Bobby Flay
Dinner: Impossible


Thank you for your attention, we hope this letter prompts you to correct this injustice.

Members of Intelligent Fans Against Reality Television
