MTV: Scrubbing In

[chitownbelle]

Let's talk trashy tv.  I don't watch a lot of it.  I will catch up on RHOC when I can, but otherwise just watch crap like House Hunters when it comes to reality tv.  Scrubbing In just started a few weeks ago, and I watched the first episode and a half or so on demand while getting ready for work...you know, to pump myself up for a night shift at the hospital where everyone is so crazy and nurses are fucking doctors and doctors are fucking nurses and everybody....wait, scratch that, whaaaat?  These bitches are crazy.  Where does MTV find these people?

The premise of this show....take some fresh out of school, been a nurse for a year, hot young nurses, sign them up for travel nursing, shove them in a shitty hospital in CA that is stupid enough to accept this tv crew filming all day just to put their hospital on the map for where NOT to go for treatment.  "Work hard and party harder!"  This show is Real World + RNs on steroids.  And it is fucking hilarious.  The stereotypical trashiness is right on point.  I'd be lying if I said I couldn't look away, because I haven't even finished the episodes yet and don't know if I will, but I am just sad for MTV.  What happened to Music Television?  Videos?  TRL?  If not for The Voice, Carson Daly would be an even bigger washed up has been than he is. 

Anyone watching this?

I saw the previews while watching Teen Mom but honestly I thought the show was staged and fake so I never watched. Are you saying its actually real? I think regardless it is a little too trashy for me to watch anyway. I don't watch any of the RH shows.

I couldn't get through an entire episode.

I've never watched this show, but was certain it was a joke when I first heard about it. Who would ever hire these fuckers in the future?

I'm sure it is staged.  The amount of make up these women wear would take an entire 12 hour shift to apply.

As a nurse, I was really excited when I heard about the show. I expected something completely different. Really disappointing.
