OFF SUBJECT - WIFE SWAP CASTING CALL

[Guest guest]

Hi,

the 20k sounds good but we don't qualify! I got this thru the

mommysavers.com newsletter I get and since I think ALL of you are

great MOMS (ok, and Dads for those who hang out here too! ) go for

it

>Be a Reality TV Star!

>

>I'm casting an ABC reality show called " Wife Swap " and I need some

help

>finding families. The show is in its second season on ABC, so you

may have

>seen it already. It's not as titillating as the title suggests:

there's no

> " swapping " in any dirty sense. It's actually a nice learning

experience for

>the families that participate. And we offer an honorarium of

$20,000 to

>families that participate.

>

>The premise of " Wife Swap " is simple: for two weeks, two wives from

two

>different families with very different values exchange husbands,

children

>and lives (but not bedrooms) to discover what it's like to live a

different

>woman's life.

>

>Each participating family has to have two parents, and at least one

child

>over five living in the home. And as it's mainly about the mom, the

mother

>has to be exceptionally interesting, and interested in being on

television.

>Also, each family has to clear a pretty extensive background check.

I'm

>looking for all varieties of families, with extreme, humorous, laid-

back, or

>adventurous moms who might enjoy a chance to be on national network

>television. We want everyone from ranching families to city

slickers, from

>hard-hat wearing construction-working moms to romance novelists.

>

>I have some examples of ideas of what we're looking for, although we

need

>many more as well. We have the following families already standing

by, and

>we need to find their telegenic opposites:

>

>1. We have a family with seven kids, who are all home-schooled and

obsessed

>over by their mother. We need a family where the mother puts her

work ahead

>of her family.

>

>2. We have a conservative family of Christians who raise llamas.

Very

>outdoorsy, very modest, very covered up. We need to find an

outrageous

>family: lots of belly buttons, revealing clothes, not religious, and

with no

>sense of the outdoors.

>

>3. We have a high-achieving family that studies Suzuki music all

together,

>who live for education. We need an " unschooling " family, where

video games,

>tons of TV, and being average are all just fine.

>

>Please email or phone me with any ideas or phone numbers and I'm

happy to

>follow up from there. Thanks!
