Front-Ranger:
On HBO tonight will be a dramatization of the first reality TV show which debuted on public  television in the US in the 1970s. It's the story of the Loud family, the parents Bill and Pat, and their four children, including son Lance. Tim Robbins and Diane Lane star. I've heard that the original series will be aired as well. WOuld be interested in hearing your thoughts and reviews.
