| Now when you see the promos for 'Category 7,' everybody knows what that title means, everyone knows what FEMA is. |
| Now, I think candidates realize that they've got to collect these constituencies, these audiences, like you would assemble a patch-work quilt, |
| Obviously, we are disappointed. We never want to see fatalities go up. Even one fatality is too many. |

You exploit the existence of this universe you've created and squeeze out more audience participation. |
| Reality has taken a major hit. But it's far from dead, and some form of this stuff is going to be on television for at least the next century, if not longer. |
| Reality TV comes along and it proceeds to marry with every other type of program and have offspring. We've got reality TV married to a talent show ? 'Nashville Star' and 'American Idol.' And now I think the same is happening with home improvement shows. |
