It’s not as dirty as it sounds…lol! I’ve only seen it a couple of times (it didn’t find it very intelligent or stimulating) but the premises is that they take 2 wives (from very different families i.e a healthy, environmentally conscious, vegetarian family vs a family of carnivores, with little interest in health or conservation of the planet) and trade households for 2 weeks. The women take on the other family members as their own. The first week she lives by the other wife’s routine , the second week making the family live more as she would in her own home. There is usually lots of conflict when the wife tries to implement new changes into her adopted family (new foods/chores/routine).
I guess the one that they did in the US was brutal. Not something that I want to volunteer for.
Absolutelty not. I laughted at the two emails they have now sent me. I emailed them back and told them what I thought of the show. They replied with some twaddle about how they are changing the show to be more educational and less hideous. Hmm. Dont think its me thats going to test out whether that is true or not. Its funny. They contacted me a year ago aswell because they were also looking for a home schooling family. Not likely.
I LOVE THAT SHOOOW! Hehehe, but I love it only because they show the absolute bi polarities of the families. Once they took a family that was ALL about their 5 year old daughters BEAUTY PAGEANTS and one where the mom wouldn’t even let her daughter brush her hair… It was muy interesante… But, I only like watching it. Would never, NEVER sign up for it, and you probably shouldn’t either.. Unless they pay you obscene amounts of money :D
I saw a preview for the Wife Swap episode for Wednesday, May 14, 2008 and I think they will have another vegetarian family on the show.
Coste/Ives Wed May 14 8/7c A wife who dotes on her gas-guzzling husband swaps lives with an eco-friendly artist who makes her kids ride bikes in the Arizona heat in order to save the planet.
@ emmie, I don’t think a nice sensible person would go on the show, though ;) oh greenie, you robbed me of my last illusions. I only saw wife swap a couple of times, and enough that was. never was quite sure how much on tv is scripted and how much isn’t. good thing my tv’s only for dvd’s. cheerios!
