Has anyone been watching this show about whiny, witchy brides? I haven't ever watched it until this evening.
It is almost like a train wreck, you have to watch it in morbid fascination.


Some of these "ladies" (and I use that term loosely) make me want to reach through the tv and smack them upside the head and tell them to get real.

I can understand the one having a meltdown because her florist didn't show, but honestly, some of the rest are so over the top! The one threw a hissy until her husband bought her a $45,000.00 ring set. (Um, are you kidding, that is more than I make in a year!!!)

What if any reality shows do you watch?

Lauren and I will catch "Dancing with the Stars" if we aren't doing something else.

We like to watch Extreme Makeover Home Edition and The Amazing Race. We just don't care to watch a bunch of whiney, gossipey, nasty, hateful, backstabbing people. That's not entertainment as far as I'm concerned. While The Race has some of that, it's not BASED on that. I love seeing all the neat places they get to go.

I forgot to mention we will watch Jon and Kate plus 8 too.

Although, I dont' watch it very long.
I get a huge kick out of the little children, and Jon seems very nice and laid back.
I admire Kate's organizational skills, and how she is very structured, but I think she is too witchy to Jon and way too much of a control freak. So, I turn it off after a few minutes when she starts in on him and I get frustrated.

Kate - you're too too funny. I think the same about Jon and Kate. She completely lost me when I saw what controling clean freak she is. I'm all for being mindfull when they're premies (DD was so I know how scared you can get) but gosh she mops the floor 3 to 4 times every day and a bunch of other daily cleaning stuff that just seemed over the top. I just wanna tell her to play with those kids 'cause they're not young for very long.

DD and I like Project Runway - when it's a new season. Other than that not much reality. Can't stand how dumb and nasty some of these people are. Makes me fear for America.

We just keep adding to our movie collection - previously viewed from Blockbuster 4 for $20.

I don't think I could watch this show because I'd want to hurt the "brides" too much...but(confession time)....I never thought I would watch any reality tv--in fact, I don't watch much television at all, but on Wednesday night I've been watching the Super Nanny before I have to go pick up my husband from work. I used to watch Law & Order and he would call to be picked up right when they were about to crack the case, so now I just don't get involved in the story because I'll never know how it ends....and I'm learning a few things about how I DON'T want to be as a parent!!!!

I watch Little People Big World and Jon and Kate, but agree Kate is a little OCD for me. I love the mom of LPBW because she calls it like it is and isn't afraid to say Hey you messed up now fix it plus her house is a disaster and she doesn't care. It is about family, doing things for the community and having fun. I wish I could be that laid back.

I cna't handle too much reality tv. Most of it is raunchy, while some is just plain goofy. I like my usual shows, but that's just me. I don't knock anyone else who likes them - it's a personal preference :)

I watch the Super Nanny. I think it is the best commercial for birth control and/or abstinence I have ever seen. Make sure my grandddaughter sees it when she is here!!

Oh, Mary Jane, you crack me up.
I have watched that show a couple of times, and it makes me glad the little ones on there aren't mine!!!
