UNBELIEVABLE Reality Television

Okay -- so -- with the likes of Naked and Afraid on cable television -- WHAT COULD BE MORE UNBELIEVABLE OR BIZARRE??? Again -- leave it to TLC. This year, their new show was five Amish/Mennonite young adults who came to Los Angeles. They were put up in a house, and exposed to all-things-NOT-Amish...

Devon, in the middle -- is from Shipshewanna, Indiana. Lizzie, on the right -- is hiding her pregnancy from her Lancaster family...
After an especially wild night of drinking and cursing -- Iva (the beautiful blonde) accuses Betsy of violating her. She was so upset, her boyfriend Sam came from Lancaster to save the day and they went to the police to file charges against Betsy. Of course -- SURPRISE -- Betsy showed the VIDEO of Iva having sex with Devon...I AM SURE YOU ARE SORRY YOU MISSED THIS HIGH BROW SHOW...
Iva and Betsy both got drunk with Devon one night....they were all sex-starved...
But -- so far -- none of that is very amazing, is it? Too much drinking, ill-advised sex -- it sounds like an ordinary episode of The Real World, the Kardashians or my Big Fat Gypsy Wedding ...SO WHY AM I CALLING THIS IS THE MOST BIZARRE TELEVISION SHOW OF THE SUMMER??

Because -- one of the GUYS on the show -- Matt -- loves to sew!! And he came to Los Angeles to see if he could make it as a Fashion Designer!! At a meeting set up with an actual designer, Matt's shirts were critiqued by several other fashionistas -- including Bert Keeter from Season #9 of Project Runway.
Matt carried TWO sewing machines with him to California!!
So -- THERE YOU HAVE IT. The most bizarre, unbelievable reality show on television during the Summer of 2013. The ultimate oxymoron. An Amish fashion designer...

Matt has a line of men's shirts that he believes are very fashionable...he even used piping in a seam....
While in Los Angeles, Matt went clubbing one night with a real fashion designer and his friends. Of course, they went to gay bars -- and Matt was drinking....ugh...

Matt's Amish family doesn't have electricity -- so I am assuming they don't have television. THANK GOD. And I can't help but think these naive kids do not understand the concept of T-E-L-E-V-I-S-I-O-N. Obviously -- they do NOT know what the camera looks like...

  1. Yes, They know about the Camera NOW that Betsy showed them the video. They were Naive. I was shocked after they got home. That episode isn't mentioned here, so I won't be the Spoiler. I loved that Matt had not just one machine, but TWO!
