brotherly love

Here's an article that gives a (possibly too in-depth) look at the various types of bromance.

Personally, I think the term jumped the shark about two months ago, when it became title of a reality TV competition designed for guys who want to earn a spot in Brody Jenner's entourage.

Perhaps it's time for a reality TV show devoted to exploring WHY Brody Jenner has an entourage.

Anyway, a summary of the show, according to this piece:

"Along the way, contestants will be whittled down via 'Hot Tub Elimination Ceremonies' after which rejected 'bros' will be asked to leave the bachelor pad dripping wet in a swimsuit, luggage in hand. Bringing to mind various dating reality shows, contestants also will have shots at a 'group date' and 'alone time' with Jenner in every episode."

Bromances: Endearing or annoying?
