It probably won't be as good because the American version of Coupling was so unfunny.

I don't think any of these reality shows are funny or good. It all seems like filler to me.

The only one that I really enjoyed was Real World the very first season. After all, it just got progressively worse. The Restaurant is good. This season they have Samuelsson, an Ethiopian raised in Sweden and now he's here to open up one his trademark flashy joints.

I tend to agree, but upon reflection, aren't sports broadcasts "reality shows"? Theoretically, anything could happen, either team could win, and most any player could make a play that is remembered and talked about for years.

As to this show, does it say anywhere that the husbands/fathers in the households with the swapped moms will sleep with said women? I presume they do not, and if such is the case, this show is no more stupid or less moral that that show where people redesign each others houses.(Trading Spaces, I believe its called?)

If the show helps people to understand the differences in other people's upbringings, it could be positive. We've already had an institutionalized way of swapping family members, its called the foreign exchange student. Instead of a mom swap, a young person has a chance to immerse themselves in a household with a culture totally different from the one they were raised. If the host family handles it right, it is a deeply enriching experience for all concerned.

I couldn't agree more. These things are about as interesting as sitting in front of the tube, watching people, who typically don't need it, winning goods, trips, &/or money. Oh, how wonderfully entertaining.(Yawn!)
