There is a genre… It’s yet unnamed, but certainly discovered. I plan on calling it… Guy drama and reality tv. If you’ll notice, there is a while slew of tv shows that are reality tv and have simply captured the minds of guys all over the country. UFC, Deadliest Catch, Ice Road truckers, all the variations of the Loggers. Now what girl watches these things and is addicted? The numbers are slim. But the numbers for guys who are addicted? Those are very high. Now, guys won’t admit it’s ‘guy drama’ because it’s such a girly concept, but if you eavesdrop on a gaggle of guys talking about deadliest catch, you could swear it has the same profile as a gaggle of girls whispering excitedly about the latest episode of the Hills.
I have asked guys about my theory of the guy drama genre and they are completely against it. They refuse to see the similarities. It’s so there, they just don’t want to seem unmanly about watching drama, but that’s exactly what it is. Hollywood has finally found a new genre that is taking off. Guy Drama. It’s fast, full of danger and chalk full of testosterone. The only downside is that it only attracts half of the population, but seeig as the other half is preoccupied with the original girly drama, Hollywood has found a new marketing strategy that will tide them over till they can start writing original scripts again and stop remaking every flop from the 80′s. Congrats.
