Film's casting call wants that 'inbred' look By David M. Brown TRIBUNE-REVIEW Tuesday, February 26, 2008

There’s an agenda at work here, folks. Yeah, If they want inbreds they should look at the royal families in Europe.

Am enjoying
My Big Red Neck Wedding on CMTV.
I would crash one if I knew of one in my part of the country. A couple decide to have their wedding at a demolition derby, reception at a fire hall (real home cooking!), one had the wedding party dress in camou, decorations come from Wal*Mart, mattress tractor pull with maid of honor on the back, mud wrestling, bride's gift was a pink squirrel gun so they could hunt together... "thumbs up on this show".
Pimp My Truck is big, so could be Makeover (Pimp My) Trailer another show being auditioned for.

I bet if you measure it, her eyebrows are exactly a razor-blade width apart.
But that is a good picture of her.

Embarassing when the dog is the best looking member of the family in the family photo.

That’a 0kay, let them continue to portray West Virginians that way. It helps keep the riff-raff out of our beloved state. Almost Heaven.
That's a very positive and good outlook that you have. I think that you're very correct in the notion that HELLywood's attitude keeps out the creeps. I just despise bigotry in any form, and that's what this is. Just plain old fashioned bigotry.
I am getting so sick and tired of the nasty attitude displayed towards Christians, people from the South, people who live in trailers, and people who live in the Midwest.
This is one of the reasons why I don't watch television or go to the movies any more. With a few exceptions, it's become ignorant entertainment for the lazy.
