of love, life and living it up

i hang my head in shame and admit that i gave in to all the advertising gimmicks that fox used to promote this segment of trading spouses. i gave in and watched the final episode despite the type casting and the way the producers portrayed her and used her oubursts to boost ratings blah blah blah. on to the good stuff.

plot: a devout christian woman from the south lives with a new age family who do not believe in God for two weeks. the final episode shows her telling her family about her stay with the pagans, tearing up the $50,000 cheque from the show and kicking the camera crew out of her house. trust me, that's not even the half of it.

it was great! i enjoyed watching every moment of it ... this, people, is one of the reasons reality tv will live on. it should be noted that she took the money "upon further consideration". the dude who said that fact is stranger than fiction knew what he was talking about. goodness, there's even a remix of her rant going round along with t-shirts and bobble heads. the favourite reality show star of the moment. reality tv has reached a new low - i bet the networks will be falling all over themselves trying to top that.
