    A SummerShow That Leaves Me Wanting More
    I want to be on this show. That's how much I love it. I'm willing to risk humiliation. Sure I lived in Japan for a little while, but not in Tokyo and not to do this. The excitement and fun jumps through the screen. And I like the reality show portion of the show. It helps you decide who you should root for; who are the good guys and the bad. And I love the host of the game show, Rome, and the ever goofy Judge Bob. I wish they'd make it a fall show, but I guess I'll have to wait until next summer. Most summer shows aren't worth looking forward to, but this is one of the exceptions. Until then I'll leave you with "hi majide!".
