They'll do anything to fire up a second chance at a career. Sadly, it did work for a few of them, so it's only beating on more and more. In the German version, do they make some lame attempt at saying it's for charity? In the UK version, the desperation of the B-list celebrities taking part in the show is just too blatant.

All this voyeurism freaks me out :( I always wonder when it'll stop, what should stop tv producers to do those shows? Killing someone live? I'm not even sure it would stop them. And people keep watching that, like nice little sheep. Groups of people mesmerized by the god-like, know-it-all media. It scares me as hell. This way, you can push people belive everything and do anything you want. Sigh. Reminds me too much of the past and of the current political events....
