This is why I don't watch TV - Page 6

I am starting to think that too many things are all labeled reality shows, when many are game shows, essentially.

I loves me the documentaries, and simply can't get enough of History, Discovery, Food Network, Animal Planet (some shows), etc...

NEW YORK (AP) -- The secret talents of celebrities will remain hidden. CBS is axing its new reality show "Secret Talents of the Stars" after only one episode.
The first airing Wednesday had former "Star Trek" actor George Takei singing "On the Road Again." Only 4.6 million people tuned in -- and thousands tuned away as the hour continued.
The reality show also had Clint Black doing standup comedy and Mya tap-dancing. Danny Bonaduce is among the celebrities whose secret talents will be kept to himself.
CBS officials say news programming is expected as a temporary replacement.

We're watching a series currently called "Lad-ettes to Ladies", which is not about transgender issues, but rather turning a dozen er, scrags into debutantes. It's quite compelling (I hate that buzz-word) in it's own right.

I can think of several possibilities so what does "scrag" mean?

I'm gonna guess something similar to "skank".

That was my first guess. But because of the title of the show tomboy and lesbian were also getting mental votes. And simply ugly was running fourth.

Ghoulish Delight · 04-10-2008, 10:57 PM

I wonder how it relates to the British "slag".

I wonder what an adventure thru inner skank would be like...
