Celebrity Buzz After selling his soul to TLC in exchange for hair plugs, Superdad Jon Gosselin will be helping design “fun, easy clothes” for kids under fashion label Ed Hardy, often worn by people you'd rather not talk to out loud. Meanwhile, rumors continue to swirl about Kate Gosselin's being tapped to help promote a line of coonskin caps, meant to be highlighted and worn backwards (cuuuuuz that's what her hair looks like, you guys).

A roundtable discussion in which pundits consider the serious standards set for burgeoning reality show skanks via The Onion News Network. Because, really, “taking a crap on the floor of a beautiful mansion” has its consequences.
TV Buzz Police officers thought they were raiding a weed growing house in Odessa, Texas, but instead found two tiny Christmas trees surrounded by grow lights and a poster saying they were caught on camera by Kop Busters. The show, created by an ex-drug officer, aims to expose crooked police officers by setting them up in ridiculous situations like this one.
Science Buzz A new type of mental illness affects individuals who believe their lives are being filmed like The Truman Show. Congrats, reality TV! You are officially, scientifically bad for humanity.
TV Buzz Jeff Probst, the guy behind Survivor and other reality shows, has a new program coming on CBS: A last adventure show for people with terminal diseases. Can a reality show about dying people with a title cribbed from a Tim McGraw album really be all that bad? Yes, of course it can.
TV Buzz In the latest season premiere of the reality TV show Survivor, CBS accidentally airs uncensored full-frontal nudity. During an immunity challenge (which obviously involved contestants chasing two large balls in their unbuttoned boxers), Marcus Lehman’s manly parts make an impressive appearance. The uncensored video clip of the challenge which was on the CBS website for a few days has now been removed (boo!), but it’s still all over the internet (yay!).
TV Buzz The prostitute at the center of the Eliot Spitzer scandal is weighing a $2 million offer for a reality show. There might be a book involved, too — and maybe, if we’re all really lucky, some kind of animated series starring her magic vagina!
A montage of a bunch of clips taken from reality shows where a contestant is saying, “I’m not here to make friends.” You probably didn’t know this already, but the people who agree to be on reality tv shows are total jerks!
TV Buzz The pseudo-famous skank was rejected by Kristy Morgan, a former Playboy model who couldn’t accept Tila’s “key,” a.k.a. “the opportunity to prove that Tila is so totally bi [on camera].” Tila posted a poem (in real time!) on her MySpace blog, where she dejectedly wrote that “the world will still die.” First she helps establish gay marriage in California and now she references global warming? At this rate, “President Tequila” might be able to teach Dubya a thing or two.
TV Buzz A new BBC show takes eight young disabled women to compete for a photo shoot in a top fashion magazine. Disabilities are so edgy! These are the kinds of twists that make reality television actually interesting.
TV Buzz A new reality show takes 10 contestants to Japan where they compete in some sort of wacky game show called Majide in front of a Japanese audience. Premieres on ABC tonight. Amazing reality television show may sound like a paradox, but this show has the potential to be totally outrageous in an awesome way.
Celebrity Buzz The P.R. maven — already known to fans of The Hills — is a burgeoning reality star. She’ll be more of a presence on the next season of The Hills, and may figure prominently in an upcoming spin-off show, but more importantly she’s just kind of bad ass.
Celebrity Buzz Matthew’s brother stars in Black Gold, a new reality show on truTV about digging for oil in Texas (think Rooster Drinks Your Milkshake). It’s worth nothing that the pipe supplier named his son Miller Lyte after being belittled by friends about fatherhood prohibiting him from continuing to show up with beer. Proved them wrong, didn’t you, Rooster? Either that, or you’re merely passing down the gift of painful adolescence to the next McConaughey generation.
Whoopi Goldberg digs into Denise Richards on The View for subjecting her kids to being exploited for reality television. Whoopi Goldberg is looking out for Denise’s kids, but who’s looking out for the MILFs??
