No, really, I do. I enjoy Vh1's Rock of Love. Its terrible, its encapsulates everything I hate about reality TV, but... its almost hypnotic. 

The show, for those of you not in know (Bless your souls), is one of those "I'm a celebrity who's going on a reality show to find twu wub." Since this is Vh1, and a reality show, the definition of "celebrity" is a bit relaxed, as they use Bret Michaels, lead singer of Poison. Those of you who are too young to know who Poison is, its an American rock band that had a couple of hits in the late 80s and early 90s. He's surrounded by strippers and porn stars, and, unfortunately, they aren't the "quality" stars, they're more the "You should probably lay off the cheap plastic surgery and crystal meth, sweetie" types.

Incidentally, due to the years in which Poison was culturally relevant, most of these girls were probably five to ten years old when "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" was released. On a related note, the show's soundtrack seems to consist entirely of "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" and "Nothin' But A Good Time."

I should, by all accounts, hate this show with an undying passion. Maybe its the alcohol (Take a shot everytime Bret Michaels acts like he's still as popular as he was in 1988; Take a shot everytime someone takes their top off; Take a shot everytime someone hops up on the stripper pole)...

So: Did anyone watch the premiere of Rock of Love 2? What'd you think?
If not: What shows do you enjoy, even though you know should hate them?
