TV network TLC is making a reality series following the lives of Muslims living in America.
The programme - called 'All American Muslim' - will follow five Muslim families in Dearborn, Michigan hoping to expose the 'misconceptions and conflicts' they face 'outside and within' their own community'.
Dearborn has one of America's largest Muslim populations and has the largest mosque in North America. Reality? TLC has announced it will début a new reality show in the fall, taking viewers inside the homes of five different Muslim-American families

In a statement TLC's general manager Amy Winter said: 'Inviting viewers into a world they might not otherwise experience.
'Through these families and their diverse experiences, we will explore how they blend their values and traditions with everyday life in America.
She added the programme would provide: 'Insight into their culture with care and compassion.'
The series - which will be released in November - is set to feature a range of characters including a set of sisters one of whom wears a headscarf while the other sports piercings and tattoos and is married to an Irish Catholic Islamic convert.
Other characters include: 'Recently married, Nadar and Nawal,' who are, 'having their first baby and trying to find the balance between their traditional Muslim roots and American culture.
'Mike, Deputy Chief for the Wayne County Sheriff’s Department, works tirelessly to educate the department about the Muslim religion in an effort to reduce discrimination and ignorance while his wife, an executive who works as a consultant to a major auto manufacturer, struggles to find the balance between work and raising a modern Muslim family.'

yawn
A few months ago three Christians were arrested on a public street in Dearborn for passing out Christian literature.
There were charged with disturbing the peace.
Christians, arrested in Michigan for advocating Christianity.
More to come.
I have a better title for the show...
How to luv mooslimbs in three easy steps or die.
Will there be explosions?
I think I’ll stick to “Dancing With The Stars”.
TLC is absolute garbage, I’ll delete it from my channel listing.
Beheadings, honor killings and similar fun frolicking to follow!
I guess this means we’ll get an inside look into forced marriages, honor killings, etc.....
“Will there be explosions?”
Maybe; it’s what they’re good at. Y’think they’ll be televising one of the Muzzy men’s all-time favorite events — the ever-popular clitoridectomy? Probably not; there are some things about their spawn-of-Satan religion they don’t want us to know. (And, if they did, would NOW babes object?)
With-a-spoon alert.
Oh ok...let's see, it is alright to criticize and make fun of Catholics, Jews, and Christians and allow misunderstandings of their beliefs, but TLC thinks we should develop a better tolerance and understanding of the Muslims.
When was there ever a TV program about Catholic, Jewish, or Christian wives? But those who follow the Islamic beliefs get special attention and a TV series!
This would only be alright if the producers actually read the Koran to the viewing audience so people could really learn how that faith instructs their members to lie, and hate, and kill "the infidels" - meaning anyone who does not worship Allah and believe in the Koran. If the truth would be revealed so Americans were informed of the threat that followers of the Islamic beliefs actually do pose to society, then it might be helpful. But we know how the truth is going to be hidden and instead the Muslim lifestyle will be sugar-coated and idealied by the producers and the network. I suely hope there is a huge boycott against this proposed program.
All American Muslims???????? Would it even be possible to come up with a more oxymoronic title?
This `TV Muslims are cute’ thingy was covered on FReepers a week ago. Somebody kicked off a “name this show” contest.
My entry was, “We Are not Here to Dominate You!”
How about “My Three Sons (are Jihadis)”
“Our Kids Blow Up so Fast”
“Death to Those who Don’t Watch this Show!”
“My Mother the Car Bomber”
(C’mon, folks, join in!)
You wrote: “Yawn.”
Correct....I guess we’re supposed to take 30 minutes to 1 hour of our evenings to become more tolerant of “American Muslims.”
As they in the Corps: “DILLIGAS?”
As they SAY in the Corps... “DILLIGAS!”
Exactly. And to claim it's reality, well, I doubt it is.
All American Muslim TV shows:
“Leave it to Burqa”
“As the World Burns”
“The Hamtramck Hillbillies”
“Fatwa Knows Best”
“SHootenanny!”
etc...
LMAO
