Of all the reality shows these woman are as real the deal as you will get . Sure at some point the producers got stupid and greedy and pushed it into directions that no one was comfortable with, but it basically began and ended well and while the material it covered was made light of it was some heave duty sh"t - old school subject matter and the fallout - it was serious. I have tried other reality shows , they all seem pointless after this . Had this been done documentary style it may have gone over better. But it was what is was.
