Have you ever watched more than one television show about the making, eating or selling of cupcakes? If your answer is “yes” and you’re not in some way connected to the cupcake business, I’m worried about you. And not just about your adult-onset diabetes.

I can’t be the only person surprised to learn that there is a show on television devoted exclusively to cupcakes. To find out there are at least three of them is troubling. Normally I would say “to each his own,” but “Cupcake Wars”? Really?

When the reality TV craze started years ago with “Survivor” and “Big Brother,” I used to wonder what was wrong with television. It turns out that was the wrong question. Now, after the success of “Jersey Shore” and programs about multiple Kardashians, hoarding, pawning, extreme fishing, ice truck driving and very unreal housewives of Who-Cares, it seems the question should have been, “What is wrong with television viewers?”

Have you been following the MTV hit “Teen Mom”? Neither have I, as I am older than 13 and no longer think turning 16 is the biggest thing that will ever happen in my entire life, the life that my parents are trying to wreck. “Teen Mom” is a spinoff of the previous MTV reality show “16 and Pregnant,” and it “stars” the same cast of teens, celebrated for making poor life choices.
