I haven't seen that one. But aren't all "reality" shows getting over-the-top nasty for ratings? Why would anybody watch a mellow, real life show? But it's like everything... video games, tv shows, movies...if it's not mean and nasty, nobody watches. I'm so thrilled to be bringing up my kids in this society! NOT.

I think the worst I have seen so far is Paradise Hotel. It's kind of like going past a train wreck. You feel bad, but you look anyway. Yick. witchypoo's last blog post..Will Work for Food, Will Cook for Wine

I have never seen the show you mentioned but I've seen enough reality television shows to know that they are just ridiculous. It seems like they only exist to really highlight the nasty side of humanity. They can draw you in, but when you think about it, it is very shallow and sickening. I refuse to watch any more reality shows unless they are really different. I also think some of the so-called reality shows have some scripting and editing going on to make people's behavior look even worse. I find real life can be cringe-worthy enough for me. teeni's last blog post..Story Game - The Adventures of Marie Cambridge - Marie and Her Ex
