Oh yeah - it’s just as weird as it sounds! Mud-bogging, hog hunting, beer swilling, mattress surfing, camo-wearing rednecks get married, and the cameras catch all of the fun. A few of my favorite moments include one bride losing her teeth, another mud-wrestling (in her dress) and a third saying “it ain’t a party until somebody’s truck ends up in the mud!” as the ladies push said truck into the bog. Has anybody else seen it? If not, you’ve got to check it out. The network’s site is [here](http://www.cmt.com/shows/dyn/my-big-redneck-wedding/series.jhtml). You can read about the show, see photos, and even watch all seven episodes online! I don’t know if it was just a half-season filler show, but I don’t think it got cancelled because you can apply to be on the show from that link. ---

My friend told me about this show. I just went to the site and watched an episode. It’s much more entertaining than any other wedding show I’ve seen, that’s for sure 🙂 I hope the Europeans don’t get wind of this… ---

I work nights, so I don’t understand. Why watch if you don’t like it? Thanks for an honest answer. ---

I don’t watch reality shows. I hate reality TV. I abhor the idea of “normal” people “acting normal” on camera, because it’s dumb. All that said… OMG. I just wasted an hour watching two episodes, and I am going to see the rest of them tomorrow. It’s like there’s crack in the camo, and I just need one more hit, man, just one more hit. I went to school with people just like these, and it’s… eerily refreshing watching people I don’t know behave in familiarly idiotic ways. I may spring for the DVD when CMT releases it, which says something. Of course, that may be more to torment other people than anything else, but still! ---

It’s like a trainwreck on TV! You can’t tear your eyes away … even long enough to change the channel. Who am I kidding? I TiVo’d every episode! ---

The old Anna Nicole show was like that…for a while, it got old after 3 or 4 episodes.
