In all the other Reality-Competition nominees including American Idol and Dancing with the Stars (each a much bigger and more popular series than TAR) the competitors are eliminated by votes of fellow participants (Survivor, Big Bother), judges, or viewers at home (and there is very little control on the number of votes cast). In TAR the teams are eliminated by their own mistakes or lack of skill and no "voting" takes place. This makes TAR a much more realistic reality competition and leads to their string of Emmy wins.

gingerman, love your spelling of Big Bother!! :lol: :lol: At the moment, it fits my feelings about BB8!! (but I'll see it thru and, as usual, promise myself I won't Bother with it next summer!!) ;)
I hadn't really thought of it, but you are so right about TAR compared to most of the other reality shows & why it gets takes home the wins.
However, the vote-off format creates a lot of drama! And I love havign the chance to vote for my favorite singers/dancers!
Each of these shows have certain appeals, but TAR most definitely is the most appealing and the best OVERALL! :jumpy:
