But, how much "reality" is there in Reality TV?! Not much, and there's too many people out there who believe that it's all real and *not* edited to death.

I wonder how many women will rush/pledge "Sigma" next year and want to live the the Pledge House -- which will be gone.

This whole program is manipulated. It would almost be funny -- if it weren't so sad.
I hope Sigma can overcome any future preconcieved notions that may exist after the series airs. It's all manipulated and just truly sad. It makes me wonder what the sisters of Sigma are thinking when they see the finished show.

BTW, do we know for sure that the Pledge House is gone after the series ends? I'd be curious whether or not the Pledge House was part of the contract with MTV and that Sigma retained ownership after the show.
