I really enjoyed this show a lot. It really humanized Mrs. Beckham. It did the exact opposite for other celebreality shows, where I pity them and can’t believe they’d agree to have their behaviors filmed. This show was exactly the opposite. She’s pretty charming and with her facial expressions she finds oddity in many of the things we all do. It’s a true fish out of water story and seeing how she and her family acclamates to life in the US would be an absolute hoot to watch! I had some admiration for her to actually go to the ‘office’ of Perez Hilton and discuss her issues with him directly. Not many celebrities would do that, I bet. I liked her assistant as the show wore on. At first she seemed like a nitwit. But ultimately, she appeared pretty competent and out for Mrs. Beckham’s best interests. I thought the earthquake drill scenario was a scripted situation, but seriously necessary given that she had chosen LA for her home and possibly would be unprepared for such an event. But great to consider when looking at homes with potential risks. Mrs. Beckham seemed fairly thoughful and certainly loyal to her friends, but they all genuinely appeared to have fun and enjoy their new opportunities. Her facial expressions when attending the BH lunch was priceless…like she understands these folks are eccentric and may or may not be the norm. But it would be unlikely that these women would have children of playing age for her own children. Maybe their grandchildren. With the exception of Marla Maples, I don’t think I’ve seen as much plastic surgery in one location on television in a long time! I’m sorry this was only an hour show and not a series.

I watched this show too and found Victoria to be a delight! Madison6x4's post above really said it all for me. My two favorite scenes were the plastic surgery socialites ('dolphin call' lady was a hoot!) and Victoria's one-on-one with Perez Hilton. These two encounters really spoke volumes to me about Victoria's character...she's truly genuine and let's hope she stays grounded to the person she is while living the LA lifestyle of the rich and famous. Great show last night, I loved it!!

Glad everyone loved it. Anyway we can get NBC to keep it going? I wonder how the ratings went.

I must be a fish out of water. I found her obnoxious and grating.

No, you're not Grooch. I came upon this show last night when finding nothing else much on while waiting for "Age of Love." After seeing her last night, I'd have no interest in seeing any more about her. That's why I TVCH..we can all have our own opinions and it's okay here!

Here's a review of the show and ratings: http://www.cnn.com/2007/SHOWBIZ/TV/07/17/beckham.victoria.reut/index.html I really liked it!!! Sad that it wasn't reviewed in a nicer way.

I just watched this show and LOVED it. She was a hoot. I didn't really have an opinion of her before hand other than she does seem angry in all her pics. I think on a professional level if she upped her ante. I also found her to be "real" for a reality show. There is no doubt that she loves her hubby. I would definitely watch more. Paula Abdul and her management she take notes! Oh and I wish that I had that hair and someone to fix it daily!

I enjoyed this show. Love Victoria's style and taste in shoes. Loved when she was learning baseball from the lil kids.

I also really liked the show. I think she is adorable and knows how to laugh at herself. My daughter just got her hair cut like Victoria's yesterday...It was already short and blond, she just needed fine tuning. Since she lives in San Diego, I told her she might have the paparazzi chasing her...LOL! Probably not though, since she drives a Scion XB...not really a Beckham type car.

I thought it was great how she laughed at herself too. She knows she is not here to change the world. I would like to see her with her kids.

I missed it as I was out with friends. But would have liked to have seen it. Apparently tanked in the ratings. I have insider info at one of the (early) networks who considered it that the series itself was pretty bad, and that they worked hard to condense it down into this special.

I was listening and not really watching, but get this, my DH watched!!! We were rolling over some of the things said and he even called our DD to make sure she was watching! He compared her to Jessica Simpson with her dumb "buffalo wings" comment. The funny thing is, he didn't realize the time and when the next show came on he was saying, "What?!! I thought that other show was on." I swear, I've never seen him sit through anything like that! LOL He even watched a bit of Age of Love when he realized it was a tennis star on there. He always leaves the room when I watch BB and other reality shows, except TAR, Survivor and he was watching Pirate Master until they moved it. I just get a kick out of HIM getting a kick out of it. LOL
