But this is the inevitable downfall of any good show...the essence of it gets lost in advertising, plugs, and ratings...I liked the show when they were poor, in an LA flat, with one camera man! At least it was reality!
Let's not forget the episode where they showed them eating Special K Red Berries and Vanilla Almond for like a whole two minutes. It sounds like no time at all, but it was SOO out of place with the show. Then, you have some random plug like "I LOVE this Vanilla Almond!" Makes me ....
