It really is. It's pure entertainment. I don't watch it to learn anything. I wouldn't want to be friends with most of the people on the reality shows. But, I would rather watch "reality" shows than shows with actors and actresses who think they are worth millions of dollars, above reproach, and catered to.

Desperate? No. Smart, yes. It's incredibly cheap TV to produce. Enough people watch to make money. Win win for the networks. Morally bankrupt stuff that's for sure.

It was noted and in some pics that the couples applied for a marriage license the day after they were wed so I think it is legit. Doug is growing on me moles and all like a fungus lol (he said it I am just agreeing)!
you're supposed to get it beforehand. If not, it's not legal!

I had a feeling about that as the show made it seem it would go the other way. I predict Cortney and Jason split, just a hunch. How did you find out about

Money and Vaughn

Since it's taped in advance, how are the participants supposedly tweeting as things are happening?

I stopped watching the few Reality shows I was watching. Now, it's just down to The Voice. My IQ was sinking with every episode.

A person who works with Jamie Otis as an RN too. I hope she is telling it right but she seemed sure of her info. Jamie apparently talks about Doug ALL the time. When I was watching the view did anyone notice Courtney has gained quite abit of weight? Maybe 15+lbs? Sometimes marriage does that to ya'! As far as Monet I am hoping they do date and make it work.
