i happened to catch the beginning of that terribly new 'reality' show about 'ugly' women turning themselves into 'beauties' by allowing fox broadcasting to surgerize them. i couldn't watch more than a few minutes without screaming and ranting, but the worst thing, the absolute worst thing, was the way fox was trying to ameliorate themselves by providing therapists for each of the contestants. all the doctors and the host would sit around and think it was terribly sad how the women felt so bad about themselves, and how they needed to spend some time with the shrink so they could feel better about themselves, of course, only during breaks from major surgery, cardio & weight lifting, and dental surgeries, all of which are to help them not be the person who they are anymore because that's 'ugly.' sick, just sick. if it wasn't for television shows like this one and the media and the advertising industry and hollywood and the diet industry and our gluttonous culture and sexism towards women and on and on and on, well, people wouldn't feel so bad about being themselves in the first place! i hate that new show on fox. just disgusting.
