First, the good: the new Chris Rock show, Everybody Hates Chris, is supposedly hilarious. Chris Rock's comedy cracks me up, but not as much as the Simpsons episode when Ned Flanders goes to a Chris Rock show thinking it's a Christian Rock concert. "Well sir, I never heard a preacher use the M-F word so many times."
Now, the bad: Am I the only one who found Rock Star: INXS to be in very poor taste? Here's the premise- a few years after lead singer Michael Hutchence kills himself, his bandmates have a reality show in which they search for his replacement. Yeah, really sorry about the tragic, untimely death and all, but hey, we're getting the band back together! In a reality TV format! What's next- Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic are going to search for a replacement for Kurt Cobain? Or a SeaQuest reunion show where aspiring young actors try out for the Jonathan Brandis part?

You know I used to like INXS, like back in middle school, but this stunt is really in poor taste and pathetic.
TLC is doing it too
