I want to thank everyone for giving me their opinion below about how they feel about extreme makeover shows. If you haven't given your opinion and would like to weigh in, please do so this week. I am going to write an article for the New York Daily News about this topic and your replies have given me amazing insight. You've come up with points of view that would never have occured to me. Thanks for helping me out with this difficult topic.

You said: How have we come to the point that you have a surgeon discussing someone's flaws in front of millions of people, explaining with unflinching certainty

There are also some people, for whatever weird twisted reason that I can't understand, who love to be in the spotlight. They love the attention and seek it out whichever way they can, even when it involves going on national television for all the world to see their flaws.


I only call it weird and twisted because it is so foreign to me. I just can't understand that mentality.
