The other day, I saw an infomercial about Oprah's new reality tv show -
The Big Give.I was really hoping the whole reality-tv craze was dying down.
Anyway..
I think the idea of this show is that contestants are given a sum of money and are asked to do whatever they can with it to change the lives of a family that is assigned to them (or something alone those lines) in a fixed period of time. The biggest giver wins a million bucks (that's supposedly a secret..).
All I could think of was, if you really want to make a Big Give, don't do it on a national reality-tv-based show where thousands and thousands of $$$ are spent on production costs, etc. Just take all that money and
give it away if that's what you're after. Seems so simple to me.
