Ruby
Ruby is a new reality show on Style Network. I saw commercials for it this weekend while watching TV, and decided to share it with you all. Ruby is a 500 pound woman, and the show will give an inside look at what her life is like--the struggles she faces, etc. Ruby's goal is to lose "hundreds of pounds" because her doctor has told her that if she does not lose the weight, she will definitely die. The executive producer is a close friend of Ruby's and she says, "Ruby really wants to inspire people. She's so entertaining and hysterical, so it's going to be an inspirational but also a really fun show (realitytvscoop.com). Style Network's website (which I recommend for a full view of the show and what it entails) has a whole mini-site about Ruby and her show, life, and even tips on how to deal with societal problems at such an extreme weight. Check out Ruby and let me know what you think. Do you think this show is a good idea and will help people and Ruby, or is it just another reality show to make money? (Notice the posed pics of Ruby on the site, don't they seem airbrushed and edited a little? Hmmmm)

The idea for this show seems like a very legit idea but I do not believe it is going to do very much. Seeing some of these things on TV doesn't give the "reality" to how she actually lives her life, it sort of gives the TV view on it.
As for the photos on the website they don't seem like real-life photos such as ones you would see on something like facebook. They look professionally edited and don't give her the every-day appearance.
