I just ventured over to the VH1 website for something unrelated, and the outcome of the Surreal Life Fame games was spoiled right there on the front page. The show hasn't even been over for a half an hour, and I haven't watched it yet.
This isn't the first time I've noticed they post spoilers but it is the first time I forgot and was spoiled myself.
You'd think they'd at least wait until the next day or something.

VH1 is really, really bad about spoilers. I recently recorded a marathon of 'The White Rapper Show' (I know, I know-- so sue me; I like really crappy reality shows ;) ), and they constantly showed commercials for the finale of the show, which was airing after the marathon was over. If you saw the commercial during the broadcast of the very first episode, you already had the final two spoiled for you.

Heh. I watched The White Rapper Show, too.
Call me a VH1 addict. ;) :o

"You've got Mayo" cracked me up every single time they said it. :)

I still haven't gone to Zap2It.com since they spoiled some show for me about 3 years ago. Funny thing is, I don't even remember what it was they spoiled now. The web is a dangerous place if you're trying to avoid the outcome to something. And try working in a newsroom while trying to avoid who won Survivor or something similarly mainstream. Brutal!

I just avoid VH1!
Seriously, I boycotted it when they hashed the coverage of Live 8 and haven't watched since. Perhaps there's something wrong with me, but I haven't missed it yet!!!

Oh, I'd miss it. I watch it all the time. When we spent a week in Canada, I missed it horribly.
It's my default "on in the background" channel when I'm doing something else. MTV, too.
What they did for Live 8 was hideous. But I can't help it. I love me some MTV. :)
