Best part of Wife Swap?
When someone breaks down and cries.

I mean, seriously? Crying because you don't get your way? What are you, 7?

:eyes:

Which of course is why I watch it.

:rofl:

1. Best part? It usually ends after 60 minutes.
IMO, one of life's biggest mysteries is why anyone ever agrees to appear on one of those reality shows.


:puke:

6. My friend, who shares your name, BTW, has threatened her youngest
to the point of making the child flat out psychotic that she's gonna call Supernanny.

She's the only child I know with the bedroom lock on the outside of the door to lock her in.

In other words, she's a holy terror.

:rofl:

8. They asked one of the women in my office to be on that show and she said no.
I watched that show and I am telling you she would have probably been too low key for them anyway. The lady they finally got to appear was married to some fundy that wouldn't even let his wife out of the house to go grocery shopping--let alone drive a car!

They swapped that couple with a woman who was a California Highway Patrol officer married to an investment guy that stayed home and did all the housework. I seriously thought at one point she was gonna beat the snot out of that fundy guy.

The whole show was about some Christian book that has a church based program to go with it about femininity and the teachings of the Bible. That lady from my office was an instructor for that class and that is how they found her. She made the comment before the show ever aired that she just KNEW it was gonna be ghastly.

So, what is the deal with your neighbor that makes her family interesting enough to be on that show? Are they the fairly normal ones that will get the wackaloon wife or is she nuts and gonna be the one tormenting somebody else?

12. Does anyone on that show not cry?
Well maybe the kids don't.

I cannot for the life of me ever being willing to enter into such fiascos in the making. Worse, I could not imagine trying to change their ways into my ways in a matter of weeks. Which is of course, why I would not in a million years be chosen.
