Adam Scott is easier to buy as a decent-looking guy whose…

Adam Scott is like God's gift to comedy writers. There is literally - LITERALLY - no line he doesn't sell and make funnier just by saying.

@sobriquetrouge:disqus  Say these people hadn't stumbled onto the schadenfreude goldmine that is TLC. Eventually they would have had to find some source of income, no? The children will grow up and need to provide for themselves. In your view, has this family taken a single step to teach their children any useful life…

@avclub-64407e138a438a0608968f1ed57a2c7c:disqus I don't know how many of those I'd call "reality shows" - you seem to have grouped in things that I'd consider just unscripted programming. That's been around for ages. I mean, no one calls Jeopardy! a reality show.

Other than competition reality shows, aren't they all based around feeling superior to the cast?
