Summer TV Schedule - Reality TV
- I Want to be a Hilton - Fourteen contestants are pitted against one another to catch the eye of social elitist, Kathy Hilton. Contestants on the show will have to compete in a number of challenges including art and culture, fashion and etiquette. The winner will walk away with a $200,000 trust fund. Catch this show on NBC starting on June 21, 2005.
- Beauty and the Geek - The plan behind Beauty and the Geek is to create one, ultimate super-couple. Super geeky guys are paired with drop-dead gorgeous fashionistas and they are each supposed to pass on some of their talents to their partner (whether it's rocket science or dance skills). The pair that passes the most tests will win $250,000! This show is another Ashton Kutcher creation, so you can expect it to be full of laughs. Tune into the WB every Wednesday at 8pm.
- The Scholar - They are some of the smartest high school seniors in the country and they are about to compete for the chance to win a four-year scholarship to the school of their choice. Each contestant has a near perfect grade-point average and has an impressive resume of volunteer experiences. For those of you who are striving to get into the school of your dreams, this is a show you should tune into! Catch it on ABC every Monday at 8pm.
- Dancing with the Stars - Already one of the top-rated shows of the summer, Dancing with the stars pairs pseudo-celebrities with professional ballroom dancers and sees who's the best. Watch peeps like Joey McIntyre (former member of New Kids on the Block), Evander Hollyfield and supermodel Rachel Hunter (who played the role of Stacey's Mom in Fountains of Wayne's music video). Tune into this riveting reality TV series on ABC every Wednesday at 8pm.
- So You Think You Can Dance? - Every station seems to be competing for your attention on Wednesday nights. So You Think You Can Dance makes its debut on Fox on Wednesday June 20th at 8pm.
