    Now that's just offensive.

    It was NOT bad reality television!

    His middle-age angst bullshit has a body count.

    He'd probably have skipped his own birthday party for a quickie Vegas wedding.

    Spent a night in Hope, BC camping - it's better known as the town where First Blood was filmed. Really cool place right on the Fraser River.
    And I agree about the train-wreck fest that VH1 spawned with Rock of Love. I'm surprised they haven't done a show where you have 10 lifers competing for a release from prison.

    The hell with that ... just think of what a great "ripped from the headlines" episode of "Law and Order" it will be!

    One thing Jenkins did to save us all was nip all the breathless Nancy Gross coverage in the bud.

    Is there such a thing as good reality television?

    How great will it be? No trial - the primary suspect is dead.
    Might make for a great SVU episode, but not the original L&O.

    Don't be too sure about that. She can drone on and on and on, long after it's necessary.

    TMZ is reporting that police ID'd the killer's body by tracing a serial number found on his douche bag.

    They've been known to have an episode start with something "ripped from the headlines" only to go in a completely different direction from the real-life story. And if they wanted to have things get to trial, the reality TV guy could just off himself once he sees the writing on the wall in court.

    All that said, with all the sensational elements here, yeah, this has SVU written all over it.
