Celebrity Rehab

I absolutely love this new show on VH1. It is a show that follows around celebrities in rehab and their steps to recovery and sobriety. Unfortunately, there are no big name celebrities on the show (aka no Britney Spears appearances), but I love the fact that these semi-celebrities have enough courage to go on national television and share the struggles and stories of their addiction. It is by far the only "reality" tv show I can think of that is actually real. They even talk about how the cameras and there effect on the patients. I just really enjoy a "reality" show that doesn't envolve fake dating or scripted drama. If more "reality" shows were actually real then maybe they would have higher ratings. And with the writers strike over, those "reality" shows are going to have to try a lot harder to keep their viewers watching, and my suggestions is making it more REAL!

Side note: maybe Amy Winehouse should follow the example that the celebrity rehab contestants have set and take a trip to see Dr. Drew. I would love to see her on the next season of Celebrity Rehab!
