I don't watch The Bachelor, but I'm pretty confident that you don't have to watch it to know that's it's a moronic, annoying reality show.

Beliefnet has a piece up about how The Bachelor (this season an Italian prince) could pretty much change TV history (and probably the space-time continuum) by picking Sadie The Virgin instead of the other girls (who I guess Beliefnet would call The Sluts?). I love how they call the other girls "stereotypes," but refer to this girl as Sadie The Virgin. You'd think that a site like Beliefnet would actually just tell people not to watch the show, because it's, um, a show about women going on a game show to get some quick romance with a rich guy and some screen time on TV.

Maybe it's just that they're naive. They talk about the possibility of Sadie getting with the Prince and having a happy-ever-after ending. As if it's even possible that the person The Bachelor picks is really going to be a long-term mate.

This will come as a shock to the show's fans - both of you - but ABC has canceled the Fire Island-based reality show One Ocean View after only two episodes.

This caps off an odd summer for ABC, which saw several other summer shows canceled quickly: The One, Master of Champions, and How To Get The Guy. Will this make the networks smarten up about the glut of reality shows? Of course not, because other reality shows do really well, so get ready for even more.

The show will be replaced for the rest of the summer by repeats of Supernanny.
