Dog rescues. Little people. What do these two have in common?

It appears that women with many multiples of children garner high ratings. Little people get high ratings. Hoarders. Animal rescues. Bakeries. Real estate. House flipping. Drug addiction. Pregnant 16-year olds. Real housewives from wherever.

These things are all hot right now. Well, at least they are at my house. There is always something on the television in my home on TLC, HGTV, Bravo, MTV, or Animal Planet. And when these channels on are there is a very good chance that some show containing one of the subjects above will be on.

Now they are creating hybrids. There is the show with the little people that own a bakery. There is another show coming soon that focuses on hoarders of pets. Maybe the thinking is *two* great show ideas will make for *twice* the ratings. I dunno.

So the show that is on right now is called "Pit Boss". It's a show about... wait for it... a group of LITTLE PEOPLE that RESCUE ANIMALS - specifically PIt Bulls. The main dude goes by Shorty (imagine that) and his company is staffed completely by little people. And OMG... I just can't believe what I'm watching.

What's next? Addicted and Flipping? Sixteen and Pregnant With Triplets? Real Housewives of Chicago Bakery Moguls? Sheesh!!!
