Making The Band...At It Again.

Sean "Diddy, Puffy, etc." Combs is at it again with his money making reality show Making the Band. To be honest, I have been a fan of the show since day one. I don't think I've missed a season since he's started, and I have always been a faithful viewer. I love the show dearly, but I must say that Diddy uses his artist as puppets. It seems as if, like every season before, Diddy will have yet another group gone down the drain. The show currently consist of the few members left of Danity Kane. After the very explosive ending to last season, where Diddy cut two members of the group; many fans were left wondering what was going to happen with these talented young women. Day 26 is the other group starring on the show, and from the looks of it, this group will be at it this season, and personally I am a fan of their music and will hate so see such talent go to waste. I feel that this show is making a lot of money for Diddy, so therefore he keeps it around, which is a smart move for him business wise, but really...what is he doing with these groups. I honestly can't think of any recent groups or clients on his Bad Boy label who has made it past their seconds CD. As for Donny, it looks like he may not even make it to a second album. Personally, I adore the show. I am what I like to call a reality TV show junkie, and I enjoy catching the new episodes weekly, but I hate watching something that I feel like is a waste. It seems like Diddy finds some of the most talented individuals with big dreams, put them through the craziest things in order to actually "make the band," when in reality, in about three years, there will not even be a band anymore. Besides that, tune in every Thursday at 9PM on MTV to watch this season of Making the Band, and lets see what happens with these young individuals.
