I have been on the computer looking at websites for the tv stations we get. I found that CMT has some cool ones!
They have a show called "The Strictest Parents" where 2 troubled teens go to live with a family of strict parents for a week. I don't know if you can really change someone's life and lifestyle in a week, but at least for a while the kids seem to come around. The parents seem to be able to reach them (isn't it true that someone ELSE can get through to our kids eons before we can!).
then they have some really FUNNY shows about weddings. My REdneck Wedding is a HOOT! You see some really funny things, and get an appreciation of the brides on the OTHER side of the "Bridezilla" spectrum! in my opinion these couples seem more genuine than the Bridezilla couples (Bridezillas seem more like women getting married and men who are just there than a couple getting married - but that is just what I have seen in a couple of the Bridezilla shows).
I have to admit my wedding was much closer to the Redneck Wedding than the Bridezilla wedding! The groom wore cargo shorts and a tie dyed tshirt to the reception and his best man brought his golden retriever to the reception! And we had bright yellow canopies in the back yard because it gets hot in August in OK. Plus we had frisbees with the date instead of printed napkins or matchbooks, and we had beach balls and balloons tied up on the canopies rather than flowers.
