Awww... for a second I thought you meant there was a TV adaptation of 30 Days of Night (horror comic in which vampires take over a small town in Alaska, where it stays dark for a month at a time) on the way. Man, that would rock.  -D |

It's a show created by Morgan Spurlock, he who gave us Super Size Me. Basically, he describes it as putting people in alien situations for 30 days and seeing how they deal.
Spurlock takes one of these episodes himself and tries living on minimum wage for a month. Suffice it to say, his quality of life deteriorates just a wee bit.
The most interesting sounding one to me is they took a fundamentalist Christian and had him live 30 days as a Muslim. Prayer, diet, readings, the whole shmiel. Going into it he thought all Muslims were terrorists standing on mountaintops with machine guns, and coming out of it he's apparently had a really emotional reaction and learned a lot of tolerance. Which is really damned cool.

hole-e-crap. This sounds like an old mtv show now. The way you put it just struck a chorde in me. Geez. The one that really hit me hard, was I think they put some skinny lady in a 'fat suit' and made her go to clothing stores to watch how they get treated, cuz I guess she was a real jerk to larger people.
The other one I remember, was some dude was a severe jerk to uh, whats the PC term I'm looking for... he was mean to guys that liked guys? Anyway they yea... he.... didn't come out of the show the same he went in, it was a really deep episode.
It's hard to explain here, anyway, I wonder if its going to be like that? Meaning I wonder if they are going to purposefully pick people that're jerks to each other, and put each other in their shoes. Or if it is going to be totally random. I bet they're gunna pick opposits on purpose, ya know, to try to change peoples perspectives and stuff.
Does anyone know what show I'm talking about. I'm gunna look it up but some how I doubt I'll find the name of it. I REAAAAALY liked it!
