11. Jackass's will be jackass's
No matter what is on TV. I just don't get the big deal about the premise of the show. "But this will be just another excuse for racists to be racist", will be an answer. Like I said, a jackass is a jackass. So they force people on the show into groups. They do that already, even if everyone in the group was different. What's different about this and sex or violence on TV? I always hear how the Christian TV groups are crazy for wanting to take this or that off. If CBS wants to do it, why stop them? Hell, if anything, it may show how much different groups of people actually have in common. And within those groups, individuals will have varying strengths and weakenesses. Most of all, it's just a damn TV show. It won't bring racism back, since it never left. A jackass will be a jackass no matter what.
