Umm, I'm somewhat sure that you are violating the MB TOS [Terms of Service] with this ad.

Just what we need: more glorified hollywood versions of the pain and suffering we actually go through.

"A completely disgusting look at the sordid,putrid,selfish acts of adulterers.TONIGHT AT 8pm!!"

DofanA,
I can see the fair treatment that we'd get from E Entertainment home to Howard Stern, Baba Booie and Stuttering John.

Not even sure it would be an improvement over Cheaters.

I think it's high time that Hollywood does a program that's willing to have people like us on it -- those who WON'T romanticize the whole soulmate affair stuff. If E! is willing to show the whole ugly truth about the toll affairs take on men, women and children, I say that's great! AND if they are interested in showing that recovering from an affair is very possible, I can only think this would be a good thing.

I wouldn't be so quick to discount this 9r run these people off -- I look forward to the day when we start hearing more about those who choose marriage over an affair from our mass media.

I just called the number and the woman at the other end stated that she was an employee of Ellman Productions in Los Angeles.She also claims that it is an affiliate of E! Entertainment.Hmmm.I looked this number up online and it's registered to a Linda Ellman Productions.

Even if this is all true,I highly doubt that the story would be told as we would like.There's not much glamour and interest in the pain and suffering we go through.They would undoubtedly put some Hollywood spin on it.I have seen the E! channel before.It's similar to Extra and Access Hollywood.

Personally I wish you would contact the Harley's about there wonderful program for saving marriages. We hear too much about the sordid side of affairs, and not enough about how marriages can be saved.

A quality program could have value if it could educate people to all the pain caused by infidelity. It could show the hope that we are able to recover and have better marriages in spite of having experienced an A in our marriages.

If the program is just another attempt to exploit people in pain or somehow glorify A's most here would decline.

It would also be difficult to bring up the whole affair when many of us are hoping that affairs's remain a thing of our past. Harley suggests we not to keep bringing it up once fully dealt with.

Please honestly explain what approach you plan to take with this program.
