Also not a fan of "reality" tv, since most of it has nothing to do with the real world. Most of the time the "contestants" are goaded to act a certain way for ratings. Survivor Man and Man Vs. Nature are entertaining (when they also aren't faking it, like they did for I believe a few episodes a while back?)
I had watched Inuyasha for a few years, but after it wouldn't die I gave up on it, that and the back and forth ridiculousness between the main character and Kagome. However, I did find a lot of good songs to download as I loved almost all of the ending credit songs. Maybe after it's made, I'll find the last managa, read the last page, and be done with it =P.
And back to Pokemon for a second: it is silly that Ash continually dumps his old pokemon off in some babysitter's care, but always keeps his token Pikachu with him. Doesn't that mean Pikachu is like Level 1000 by now? And yet...he is still a perfect match in level for all new pokemon Ash comes across in later seasons. *sigh*

Well, the big problem with Bleach is that right in the middle of the Hueco Mundo arc, they've started a whole goddamn NEW arc, taking place 100 years before the start of the series and focusing on Aizen.
And it's going to be 108 chapters long, judging by the fact that the chapter's number was "-108."
That means even if we get one chapter a week, it will still take more than two whole years to get back RIGHT WHERE WE STARTED!
And reality TV shows are crap. They rely on shock value and controversies to be popular, probably rig half the things that happen, and never want someone with actual depth.

I hate the mindless, plotless stupidity that is reality television. I had a whole rant on it, actually. Anyway, Pokemon's never been as good since Misty/Kasumi left. It got waay worse when May/Haruka entered the scene ((like we need another clueless trainer.)) and then it finally hit the bottom when they switched voice actors on us because Nintendo bought back the anime rights in the US. Therefore we lost awesome VAs like Veronica Taylor, who coincidentally was Disapro in the English, Rachel Lillis and Eric Stuart. The new voices are downright painful to listen to.

Another show that needs to never be worked on again is that "A Shot at Love" thing on MTV. Yes. A reality-type show. In fact, ALL dating shows need to die. I am of the belief that a reality TV show is no way to find "true love" or any type of love for that matter. So that means that ASAL, "Next", "Parental Control" and all of those others need to find a deep, DEEEEEP garbage can and throw themselves in.
Also on my list for stupid and pointless shows that rot people's brains and need to be thrown out are "My Super Sweet Sixteen" (*coughcough* Sharpay Evans much??) and "Pimp My Ride" (the rides are trashed once they stop filming, PUL-LEEZ!). Reality TV shows aren't reality at all.
Now, TruTV: that's not reality, that's ACTUALITY. Yes, that's their slogan. Oh, and A&E is good, too. All of their crime shows are real. So don't throw those out!!
Pokemon... T^T I am ashamed to say that when I was a little kid, I bought into that whole franchise... ...WAITAMINUTE that show has been going on since I was a KID?? END IT ALREADY!
Same to Yu-Gi-Oh! Morrigan points out that they have started a series of dueling on motorbikes.
...
'Nuff said.
However, I still enjoy Inu-Yasha, so I'm glad it's ending. It was a good show while we weren't dealing with Naraku.
