#1 Looks like I'll be avoiding "prime"-time network TV for ANOTHER 15 years.

#2 And I thought prime time couldn't get any stupider lower.

#3  Can I swap my wife for Cathrine Zeta Jones, please?
Thankfully for Steve, his last name is unknown and his wife will never know. ;)

Personally I would never say such a thing. See, honey...

#4 There is one episode that has to be witnessed to be believed. Iurge you with every fibre of my being to watch the one with this creature in it:


A glimpse of the burgeoning peasant underclass in the UK.

#5 "Went to a wife-swapping party - had to throw in some cash!" Hey, I'm here all week, try the veal.

#6 Crazy fool, I'm afraid that it doesn't take too much imagination to picture something worse in the not too far future, thanks to the Mass. judges.

"Partner swap". Because the left hasn't knocked out enough of the pillars of our society yet.

#7 If something like Temptation Island wasn't bad enough, now reality television has to take on marriage . . .

Hey, as long as they're doing something along those lines, could I swap my girlfriend for Angelina Jolie for a couple of weeks?

#8 Chris W: Try HGTV and the Food Network. Works for me.
