Out of Spring break boredom I turned on to this new reality series only to find myself enthralled by the… wrongness of it. It was like a train wreck, horrible and gruesome but I couldn’t turn away.

I mean come on? A Butler, maid, stylist, chef and social secretary deciding who is worthy of a million dollars? Family against family?

Opinions? Or did it just simply suck?

I enjoyed it. I appealed to my evil side. I just a family going at it against each other and the ‘help’ judging who is worthy of going on.

This is what is good about Reality Shows :D.
