"Trading Spouses" on Fox
I saw the promos for Fox's "Trading Spouses" tonight. Has it come to this: Ripping off a skit (down to the title) from "Chappelle's Show" and turning it into a reality series?
Or maybe ABC originally ripped off the idea.
I'm sticking with Chappelle.

It's from a UK show called Wife Swap been around a couple of years, maybe they should sue Chapelle.

Hmmm... I wonder if they'll put night vision hidden cameras in the bedroom, Big Brother style, and tape them doing it jungle fever free willy style.

"Ahhh titty residue"
This is one reality show that I'm actually considering watching, and hope that it can duplicate at least to some extent the humor that chapelle's skit produced.
