Title: Guy Makes @ss Of Himself On Wife Swap Post by: Mr. DS on February 12, 2009, 06:06:56 PM I never really watch these shows but this one caught my eye in the news. The whole concept is having two family's switch moms/wives. Check out the smugness on this guy!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQBLK4B6x0k Although him and his wife are a bunch of snoots (both of which don't seem to have an ounce of compassion for children), he's been labeled the "worst husband/father in America" by quite a few people. IMHO, theres far worse people and quite frankly, the wife he swapped with seemed to be a bit stereotypical redneck. I'm not siding with him but I can see how he prefers to raise his kids in a cultured manner. That and there has been much more tastelss people on these shows... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TJLOGI2Odc Thoughts?

Still, his wife has a good point, America is a very good place to live but not something to worship.
I haven't seen the episode yet, but hopefully the other family rubbed a little bit off on them; Aiming higher than "traditional standards" is not something to avoid. In the mean time, it's a shame no one can make the "geniuses" calm down enough to realize that we're all human beings...

Yeah, not watching anymore of that. Title: Re: Guy Makes @ss Of Himself On Wife Swap Post by: Fausto on February 14, 2009, 12:00:11 PM It doesent matter how cultured he is, the guy is an arrogant prick, and his children will either become arrogant pricks themselves or grow to resent him for it (hopefully the latter).
I cant bring myself to watch these kind of shows. I dont even know why they call it reality, there's nothing "real" about it, its all manipulated by the producers. It's like, "let's find the most obnoxious people on the planet and match them up so they're constantly p**sing each other off." Also, the show is carefully edited to show the worst bits, as parodied here: http://www.comedycentral.com/videos/index.jhtml?videoId=24638&title=suicide-hotline |
