Reality Show

From the looks of it, most people are not tiring of reality shows. It seems there are more of them than ever. We can now look in on the lives of Kiss frontman Gene Simmons, wrestler Hulk Hogan or other "stars." We can watch people try to "outwit and outlast" each other or try to dance or sing their way to fame. I have gotten somewhat weary of the format. But I caught part of a new reality series yesterday that I will have to admit has hooked me. Avalanche Dogs on Animal Planet shows real rescue dogs training and then doing what they are trained to do. These fine animals use their keen senses to find people in life and death situations when seconds count. They won't win money or fame, but they're heros in my book. http://animal.discovery.com
