RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars & Untucked[edit]

Should RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars and RuPaul's Drag Race: Untucked! be added into the current series lists, as they are their own stand alone shows such as the different versions of Love & Hip-Hop?

Celebreality?[edit]

Shouldn't Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew be added to the list? Was it promoted under the celebreality banner? Or does the fact that it contains celebrities (some of whom were on shows definitely promoted under the celebreality banner) make it part of the list? I'm trying to remember of I've even seen VH1 use the term "celebreality" lately...I don't know if shows like I Love Money and Daisy of Love should even be included in a list of celebreality series if the terms isn't used. Maybe all of this would be solved with a name change to the template. Also, depending on the definition of celebreality, Confessions of a Teen Idol, and the Scott Baio shows might need to be added too. Nikki311 02:25, 25 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I believe Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew and Confessions of a Teen Idol should be included both here and on the VH1 webpage. If you search for 'site:vh1.com celebreality' in google you will see that VH1 is still using this term as late as April 23, 2009. We shall see how long that continues. It's not entirely clear how to decide what is and what isn't, but if it appeared on VH1 and used the "celebreality" tag, then I believe it qualifies. I will look into "Daisy of Love", but they are definitely using this term for "I Love Money". Thanks! Plastikspork (talk) 02:45, 25 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I believe I found a VH1 reference using Celebreality with Celebrity Rehab, but I haven't found one for Confessions of a Teen Idol. I will keep looking. Plastikspork (talk) 02:56, 25 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Far too Big[edit]

Im thinking this whole thing is getting far too large, would it do to cut the entire title character section? Also maybe other cuts and edits (Example: Megan Wants a Millionaire, Real Chance of love and Ray J getting a seperate column for the rest of the 'Of Love' series'?

I agree. The title characters section has been cut, but it would be a good idea to try to compress it even more. Perhaps, just one big list? Plastikspork (talk) 04:47, 13 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Daisy of Love 2/Real Chance of Love 3[edit]

Why is there a spot for Daisy of Love 2 and Real Chance of Love 3 when neither have been confirmed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.227.52.118 (talk) 12:35, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

America's Most Smartest Model[edit]

Why isn't America's Most Smartest Model on the list? It was a celebreality show, it should be added as well. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.82.90.210 (talk) 10:38, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Megan Wants a Millionaire[edit]

Although this show was cancelled after only 3 episodes...I think it should still be listed on this template. It was, after all, a celebreality show. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.172.238.114 (talk) 13:28, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed revision[edit]

This template has grown quite a bit, and is on the cusp of becoming almost ridiculous in size. I would like to propose one of the following changes

  1. Remove the labels on the left side, and make the entire template a flat bullet-delimited list.
  2. Group the shows by the year which the first premiered
  3. Try to use multiple columns or something

The grouping by years might be somewhat interesting, as it would visually demonstrate the exponential increase in the number of shows, and would separate out the earliest shows in the series from the rest. However, it may not fix the template length problem. Anyone else have any input or care? If not, I will pick one and make the change. Thanks.

    You could remove So NoTorious, which was a sitcom (fiction/scripted) and not a reality show.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.200.115.78 (talk) 02:38, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
