Drama, a bit of flesh sells
The year's reality-show craze finally concluded as CBS' "Big Brother" concluded last week. The show was obviously no match to the ratings of "Survivor" and the critical acclaim of "The 1900 House" and "American High." On the other hand, it never sunk to the depth of "Making the Band," "The Real World" and "Road Rules." If ABC renewed "Making the Band" for a second season, you knew that "Big Brother" wasn't doing badly after all. In fact, its season finale managed to beat the ratings of the Olympics telecast.
