It’s like being on the scene of a train wreck. Some of us look away but you still hear the screech of metal on metal, the horrific crash and the screams of the passengers. Of course a lot of people are fascinated by the graphic gore. It looks like we are going to have enough of these shows to program the new DF (Dysfunctional Family) Channel.
Is anyone else old enough to remember this started on PBS 35 years ago? The show was “An American Family” I came from a working class family that had just imploded and the Loud family was an upper middle-class family that was followed for a year. When it started it was a chance to see how the other half lived but very quickly it became clear there was something wrong. It was enlightening to see that there were worse break ups than my parents’.
