Reality Shows, the good side.

I am no big fan of reality show, no way, no how.

Tonight is different. City TV, Extreme Makeover, Home Edition. I didn't catch the very beginning but I think the story goes; Women who has Lukemia in US, spends all her money to survive, the marrow donor, a stranger contacts the show and tells the story. The show building her a new home. It's on now. I've seen this show a couple of times and it blows me away everytime. There are good people around, really!

The guy who contatced the show was the bone marrow donor. They were living in a trailer because of a fire in their house, and with the water poured from the fire, the house became mouldy. Because of the operation her immune system is like that of a 5year old, so she could no longer live in the house.

I only watch one ,AMAZING RACE It is amazing to see how people can work together or completly fall apart.

I would NOT watch any of those REAL HOUSWIVES series. Bunch of "I'm better than you" spoiled rich bitchess with too much empty time and money on their hands. Gimme a BREAK!!!!!!!!!! Some need a good kick in their plastic surgeried ASS!!!!!!

Caught the whole makeover show on time shift, wholly cow. Through volunteers; donations from contractor, designers, architects, and worker bees. They ended up with a 3000 sq ft Cape Cod house built from reclaimed or green products, a barn for the sheep, wind turbine, rain collection system for 4000 gal (US of course) and a geo thermal system. The four bedrooms were furnished in a style precious to the individual occupants. OMG!

Catch it on the web sometime, for those who don't watch the tele.

As I said I'm not a big fan of reality shows and my opinion of Amazing Race is it's really contrived conflicts, not scripted but outlines are handed out and I've not been able to view a whole show. I can see the interest that it can hold. Someone at least gets to see some amazing parts of the world and win a bag of loot or prizes. That's no dump on anyone who watches it, just my opinion of the show.

Not sure if this is a REALITY SHOW but My duaghter is getting married this summer and we have been watching some of the Wedding Shows on the Slice Channel ie: WEDDING SOS,RICH BRIDE POOR BRIDE etc. to get pointers ideas etc.Some of these brides and ONE groom need a bitch slap!!!!!!

I learned that MOST of them are scripted(They WANT people to fight argue etc!) after talking to a Planning Attendent. She said they would NEVER EVER do it again even though they have been asked MANY times by the Producers etc.
