"America's Got Tanqueray."

Well it's officially the summer in TV Land... We're being subjected to the reality shows that weren't quite good enough to make it to a fall schedule!

One of the many shows making it's way to your TV screen this solstice is "America's Got Talent." This is the second season of the poor-man's "Gong Show," and the only difference this year is that vehicular manslaughter suspect Brandy has been replaced by Sharon Osbourne. Oh, and David Hasselhoff seems much more drunk this year.

But the one thing that remains? The marginal "talent" being showcased. We're talking some serious crap, folks. This show should really be called, "America Has Too Much Time On It's Hands."

Personally, I don't have the patience to watch a show like this all summer long. It's not that I don't have the time, God knows I have the time, it's just that I don't care.

At least with "American Idol" there's a winner who goes on to record an album and possibly become a Grammy winner and an important part of the pop culture. Even with a show like "American Inventor" there's the slight chance that some toothless yahoo might introduce an amazing new technology that can make life more convenient. What can "America's Got Talent" offer? The world's best acrobat? Some dude who can play the saxaphone and dance like Michael Jackson? Who cares?

TVadviceguy doesn't.
