Oh yeah - Mike Boogie! Ugh!

I do argee with most the list (there are a few shows I hadn't seen), especially Ilan.

Fantasia Barrino on American Idol (Third season? Fourth?) - she's AWFUL and managed to magically beat out four far superior singers, including Jennifer-freaking-Hudson!

Great list; agree with all of them. I remember watching that TAR finale with Freddie/Kendra vs. Jon/Kris (it was my first season; ah, memories), and was HOWLING when those model twerps beat J&K in the foot race. It was like good vs. evil, and evil WON.

Ilan was the first undeserving bastard who came to mind, but that could be because I've tried to block Tootie (Saleisha from ANTM) from my memory. Ugh.

But Freddy and KKKendra definitely belong on this list not only for being terrible people, but also for beating out probably the best (extreme competence + lovability) TAR team ever: Kris and Jon.

I was just going to mention Naima as one of the worst ANTM winners. Jaslene may not be everyone's cup of tea, but she works constantly. But no one can top Saleisha and Whitney as worst winners, ever.

I was at that TARCon and it was quite awkward when everyone showed up after the finale. Kris and Jon all the way! At least it wasn't Hayden and her boyfriend.

Saleisha, meh. I thought it was very strange that the same cycle Tyra wanted a real high-fashion model they ultimately chose one of the most commercial girls in the bunch.

Gah, I have to second the mention of Jeffrey freaking Sebelia. That tattoo-necked jackass didn't deserve to win ANYTHING, and his clothes looked like shredded Hot Topic crap. I actually don't think I've ever been happy with a Project Runway winner, but Jeffrey was by far the most egregious offense there.

Agreed! But I think Casey wasn't trying to, it just happened that way. But Carla still has her company so it wasn't the end of the world for her.

@ the end of the day, the judges most enjoyed hosea's food.

Agree 100% with Ilan -- that smug douchebag one-hit (all I can make is paella) wonder should never have won.

Also agree on Sebelia -- Uli was the star that season. Michael also floundered, but Uli was robbed.

Freddy and Kendra -- meh.

I also think Mike Boogie DOES belong on the list, as someone already mentioned he rode Dr. Will all the way.

And Tina from Survivor? Pretty undeserving, but as I didn't watch the Jenna season (too painful) I can't compare. Of the ones I did watch, Tina was a total red herring.

I am SO glad you brought up Paradise Hotel, thought I was the only one who felt that way!

1. Jenna just proves that men are stupid about sex. She and Heidi may have used their bodies, but the guys weren't exactly begging them not to. And it kept them around longer than they would have otherwise. Tina from Survivor kind of deserved it; Cody was an idiot for taking her with him. Way to hand over a million dollar, man. :) I have to go w/ Vecepia being the least deserving Survivor winner.

4. I still don't understand how Taylor Hicks ended up winning. That was a joke right? I chose to sit that season out and only watch the final and I so didn't get his shtick at all. He creeped me out.

5. Ilan was a smarmy git, but Hosea turns my stomach. Stefan or Carla should have won because they dominated the most; all Hosea did was cheat on his girlfriend and continually proof he is an idiot on TV. It shouldn't have only been about the best meal on that given night. And I do blame Casey for Carla being out, but more because I didn't like Casey all that much to begin with. Mediocre.

7. Saleisha does my head in. She's a pretty enough girl -- prettier before the makeover. No one ever looked at Tootie and said, "Hey, she should be a top model! Dior would totally book her for Spring!" Ugh. Worst win ever. Before Hosea.

Word. So much word. Ugh, I'm still trying to block that season of Big Brother out. F'ing Donato's.

Kelly Monaco deserved her win. She wasn't the best from the start, but she consistently improved and her finals performance was much better than that ploddingly lame routine Peterman turned out. Helio Castroneves winning over Mel B was the greater DwtS travesty. He shouldn't have even made it past the semis.

For the 11th spot I nominate Dat Phan from Last Comic Standing. Dude was not funny.

Freddy and Kendra- ultimate douchebags. Actually, Freddy was okay until they reached Russia, and then he let his inner douchiness shine.

I have never, ever had the displeasure of seeing someone more ignorant than Kendra on television. Ugh, just thinking of her makes me want to punch something. Disgrace to the human race. When I saw them cross the finish line in Chicago (my fair hometown, why oh why couldn't you have smited them with your mighty unpredictable weather?), I actually wanted to throw up. Who knows how many years later, and that memory still haunts my nightmares.

Kris and Jon, everyone knows who really won that season.

Maggie is, far and away, the best I have ever seen on a reality show at playing people. It is not even close. I didn't like her at all but like doesn't have to do anything with it. What was comical was reading week after week when she pulled off another move was how it was someone else's fault and the failure to give credit to this woman. The woman was getting people to sacrifice themselves for her as if it was an honor. The woman was talking opposing players into voting off their teammates (that Howie conversation concering James). The woman seemed oblivious of the camera. She just worked it. She controlled that game even when she should have had no control. I listened to nonsense week after week of Kaysar's brilliance or James's ability to win immunity or Janelle's great game play while they were all played by Maggie. I didn't like the woman but it does not matter. I don't even think she was that smart (she let Ivette figure numbers). However, I would never purposefully delude myself into thinking she did not play everyone like a puppet. The 2nd best was that asshole on Survivor (the car salesman). I don't take credit away from people who outplay other people. I picked Maggie to win by the way after the 3rd week. It was easy. What wasn't easy was listening to the supposed genius of other players as Maggie had them dispatched and her not get the credit.

We shouldn't make a big deal of Kelly winning because John won the rematch.

"Evil Dick" Donato from Big Brother was the worst winner ever! He is a woman hater. He is a disgusting human being. He is by far the worst POS I have seen on ANY reality show. Unfortunately, I has seen a lot of trash on these shows, but he takes the cake! Shame on you CBS and Les Moonves.

i have no qualms with Stefani winning Apprentice LA. She was awesome on the last task...and after Heidi and Kristine (and the other people from the far better team) were eliminated, the choices weren't that good. Those who got to be PMs didn't exhibit anything worthy...Nicole and Frank (i think their names were) were awful and James was just ok.

The list fails on epic proportions. How is Jenna the worst reality show winner? How is she even the worst Survivor winner? She was sick like one episode, she did just as much strategic thinking as Cesternino.

And Maggie worst Big Brother winner? You forgot Drew, Adam, Dick? As hateful as Maggie was at least she made moves and controlled an alliance. And Jun was just as deserving to win Season 4 as Alison, they played practically the same game!

Ah...

IDOL: Taylor Hicks, Fantasia, Rueben, Jordin Sparks (sorry but it should've been Melinda)

ANTM: ok so I've only seen cycle 11, and Mckey? really? She's a freaking linebacker.

umm other reality shows? .... I'm out.

Also, anybody who won those Charm School shows, because there is not a single charming person on either one of them.

I agree that Maggie was a brilliant player, totally under rated. The people who won TAR against Rob and Amber were unworthy, because it had to take producer interference to get the "winners" on a plane which I recall was no longer boarding, to the point where the plane was pulling away.

OK, maybe Taylor Hicks shouldn't have won AI, but no way in Hades should Kellie Pickler have won. I could see McPhee, Daughtry, Yamin, but my ears won't let me consider Ms.P in the same breath.

"Why this all-but-forgotten Fox show from the summer of 2003 is perhaps the greatest single season of any reality series ever is an argument for another day."

Call me when that day occurs. I agree: Finest. Reality. Show. Ever.

If American Idol were a singing competition, I would agree with your assessment that Taylor Hicks is among the least deserving winners of the program. However, as your headline states, it is a reality show and Taylor played the game with great skill. He capitalized on his unconventional looks, played up his goofy moves, and had a knack (for the most part) for picking well-known and well-liked songs and giving them his own spin. He made himself unique, memorable, and entertaining. The producers' obvious preference for another contestant and Simon's outright distain gave Taylor the appearance of the "underdog" and his refusal to talk back gave his fans even more incentive to come to his defense by voting relentlessly. I think Taylor definitely deserved his win.

Pretty good list. I agree with all the ones I know except Taylor. He deserved to win because he did what he was supposed to do... get America behind him for the course of the show. I don't think he was ever in the bottom or in danger or anything. I remember people coming from Brazil to see him and fainting and stuff. It's not his fault that they didn't buy his CD! I wish AI wouldn't act like he never existed (except when they can't get away with it.)

OK, Taylor Hicks didn't sell many albums, but he admitted he took the opportunity given to him and ran with it. He was a better stage performer than a music performer. Also, Daughtry fans, if you felt he should've won, then why didn't you vote for him? I was an Elliott fan, but I give Taylor credit when credit was due. Like him or not, he won, deal with it.

It all comes down to votes, people. Fantasia, Rubin, and Jordin won because more people voted for them.

1. Jenna was undeserving, but so was Matt. Rob C. ran the entire game. I think other bad winners were Vecepia, Amber, and Todd.

2. Maggie's best moves were duping Howie when he was HOH, and convincing Ivette to take her to the final two. Mike Boogie and Dick were far worse winners.

4. I agree with this. I liked Fantasia (funny person to imitate) and thought the others were fairly solid choices.

9. Whoever won the TAR All Stars, or any CBS All-Stars game, was an undeserving winner.

I'd add JD Fortune from Rock Star INXS as well.

Didn't a very revealing magazine spread of the former Playboy model Kelly Monaco appear at a fortuitous time during her stint on dancing with the stars? I think that did a lot to push her over the top.

Andrea Muizelaar, winner of Canada's Next Top Model Season One. Reinforced the commonly held belief that being anorexic and a flake are the primary requirements of being a model. Complained bitterly about her winnings being taxed and 'having to travel' to be a model. Fortunately she has disappeared into obscurity.

Adrianne Curry ANTM Season 1. Does this require an explanation?

Dat Phan is the correct answer. LCS never recovered from that.

I don't argue for the most part, but Parvati was a hell of a winner (funny, shifted alliances when needed, created multiple alliances in which she was central and pivotal, was not perceived as a real threat by the others, good at challenges and helped around camp...the only thing I didn't like was when she trash talked Eliza...)

This list fails. Tina is undeserving?!? She absolutely manipulated in Survivor 2. She was the one who figured out whom to vote for at the merge so that Kucha could take control. She brainwashed everyone into thinking she was the most deserving. Hardcore survivor fans consider her to be one of the greatest winners.

Adam could not win. The deal was already concluded for him to be the first Average Joe for whom the women competed. BTW, during that later taping, he had a GF on the side living in his apartment building in NYC while he was picking the very lovely Samantha Trenk.

Paradise Hotel: Agree; one of the best reality shows ever! Charla was played as much as the others. Dave was gross and sleazy and pathetic, but he was the Puppetmaster!

DWTS: Word to a poster above that the biggest travesty was Helio beating Mel B. Mel, I believe, is the very best dancer to ever be on DWTS. She had the technique and the expression and killer routines. Helio would not deserve to be on ANY final of any season.

Taylor Hicks is way better than Katharine McPhee...and David Archuleta, even though he didnt win Idol...he shouldnt even have been in the Top 10. He only got there because of his baby face and every girl feel in love with him.

Mel B losing to Helio (tax fraud guy)was one of the worst jumping the shark moment on DWTS.
Jennifer Hudson not making the top 5.
Nicloe beating Nick on ANTM.

Was Todd the Survivor winner who was the soft-core porn star? That was the season and the winner that really soured me on Survivor. I didn't watch the show for two seasons after that season. It seemed like that soft porn guy had some kind of hold over everybody. They just rolled over and let him run the game.

Hicks is currently appearing as 'teen angel' in 'Grease is the Word' in my town. Not sure who the touring company is, but the posters are all over the bus stands with his giant face. It doesn't make me want to go see the show....

Saleisha was a joke.

Heather was RIPPED OFF! First, they used & exploited her Asperger's...and then when it turned out she was the BEST model of all of them, they decided they couldn't let her win. I mean, seriously...SOOOO many ANTM winners are the stars of their own commercials *cough*. The go see ep was strangely reminiscent of Toccara's ouster.

Toccara was doing an awesome job, even with the constant bitchy sniping from the dressers. Then, the ep before they are slated to head to Japan, suddenly Toccara tanks. What-EVER.

And by the way, I have to say that Toccara is one of the few ANTMers to actually work steadily after the show.

Gotta comment on the Colby/Tina comments. I always understood why Colby did what he did (though it was kinda dumb). In those days (at least), the runner-up on Survivor got $100,000. Colby hated Keith so much he'd never let Keith get his hands on that dough. And I think Colby figured that even if Tina won, Colby would get the runner-up money, and he had already won the car.

I enjoyed your list and agree with you,
Fantasia is one I still cant believe she won, I never considered her a singer but a screamer, I wholeheartledy agreed about taylor hicks, and rueben I began to lose interest in Idol when these three won over much stronger and better talent. thank you for the list

I think Vecepia was the least deserving Survivor winner. Kathy should have one that season if Vecepia hadn't distracted her and made her lose the last challenge. Also agree that Chloe shouldn't have won PR and that Daniel was much better. Totally agree with the Ilan choice. Sam was actually my favorite that season. I thought Ilan and Elia should have gotten kicked off too after they tried to shave Marcel's head. I was disappointed that Sam just sat around and did nothing during the whole incident. If not Sam, then I wanted Marcel to win out of the ones left.

Jordin Sparks? Apparently Idol decided that after Taylor Hicks, no one over the age of 21 could be allowed to win. Melinda Doolittle was the absolute best vocalist that show has ever seen, but she didn't look like Britney or Beyonce, so goodbye. That was the las Idol episode I ever watched. I like TAR because when you win that game, it's deserved, even if you're loathesome.

Jenna Morasca was the best Survivor winner. Maybe Vee didn't deserve it. Jenna deserved everything

Me too wanna wanna..

Timbaland said in an interview that Sparks will be one of the collaborations on his forthcoming album Shock Value 2. However when the official press release was release, Sparks was not listed as one of the album's collaborators. In an update on her website, she stated that her fans can look forward to seeing more upbeat dance tunes on her second album. She confirmed that fans could see her at a possible NFL playoff anthem in January, Charity Benefit in February, and VH1 Save the Music performing with John Mayer in March. In addition to this an official Sparks fan club would open called "SparksTown", which has since been launched with the release of "Battlefield". Sparks returned to University of Phoenix Stadium to again sing the national anthem before the NFC Championship game between the Arizona Cardinals and the Philadelphia Eagles on January 18, 2009.

Twop 10 least deserving realit.. WTF? :)

All people deserve wealthy life and personal loans or term loan will make it better. Because people's freedom relies on money state.

Very oft, some guys, which need the essay services papers, do not really know the correct way to get that. But that’s not hard to order essay in the reliable admission essay writing service. That is a natural thing for some students.
