Who's Your Daddy?

Post by Gamei »

Did anyone else catch this ad while watching the football game on Fox this evening?

I just don't know what to say.

For those who missed it, Fox has a new 'reality' show upcoming that involves a woman who was adopted at six weeks old. The purpose of the show is for her to choose from roughly a dozen men her biological father. I didn't catch any mention of a prize or anything along those lines if she's correct, but jesus christ what a fucked up premise.

Seen this ad before.

Let me quote a man who puts it better than I can.

I am sure they are offering him a prize if he fools her and convinces he is not her pops.

I think I saw that if she correctly identifies her father, she wins $100k. If she picks wrong, the imposter gets the cash.

well it aired last night, didn't it

I haven't watched it, just reading in the news today that they had the whole cheesy candle lights, hidden cameras, ditzy blonde dressed in a slinky dress, dancing, fake story telling show about it. It's great that the woman found her birth parents but the circus they made out of it is tasteless. Almost as bad as Maury Povich (sp)and his "YOU ARE THE FATHER!!!!" (or not the father)
