They did have a brief "House" joke with Tobias's vanity plates for all the parts he didn't get, including DR HOUSE.

I don't really think they're being exploited, though. They're playing a part. They know (they KNOW) they are going to be mocked, meme'd, and totally denigrated by the reality TV-viewing public, no matter what they do. So they're taking it over-the-top, and being compensated in the process. I'm not getting the…

I think this is weirdly harsh. They’re sloppy fat poor rednecks. So? They don’t come off as bad people who are cruel to each other, or even as hateful people (do you think a family involved in the pageant world isn’t going to have at least some kind of progressive attitude towards gay people?

As sad as The Amy Winehouse Story is, I will never, ever stop laughing at "Blake Incarcerated."

I can’t really explain why I feel this way, but “Pete & Pete” has always seemed autumnal to me. Maybe because the original air-dates appear to skew towards fall and the normal television season (though I certainly know I watched every rerun year-round) or because I can remember episodes that were definitely filmed…
