I didn't go looking for this show- but was pleasantly surprised when I found it. I work in an outpatient setting- but have see one person "almost" as bad as Jeff.
Did you catch the Baldwin brother asking Dr. Drew about his positive UA from Cocaine(since he has been "sober"-(from another program) and acting like it was some freak result. Dr. Drew did not believe him.

Dr. Drew is on Ellen right now. He made an interesting distinction that I feel is correct.
He said that this show wasn't a reality show, but a show that is showing reality.

Just watched last nights epi. It is a hard show to watch.

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite shows. It doesn't feel scripted like so many shows. I hope these folks really get help from this.

I have heard of Dr. Drew- but never paid attention to him. He is really earning my respect- although I still question the celebrities allowing so much personal stuff to be aired.

I thought that maybe I was the only one who watched the next episode! Yes, it is still very hard to watch. I am loving Brigitte, and think she really wants to get out from under the spell of alcohol (I don't recall that she has a drug problem, but I could be wrong).

sigh I missed the second show! But I'm sure I'll catch the rerun. It is a hard show to watch but you know what I wish they would show it in schools! Maybe these young kids would see what all kinds of Addictions do to you!

School kids should definitely be shown Jeff in rehab. If he leaves there before getting clean I don't give him a year to live.

Addiction is a terrible, terrible thing. Those of us who don't have it, find it very hard to understand how someone would seem to prefer to lose their job, their family, all their friends and everything they own rather than give up the addiction. I've seen it in people I know.

I hope Jeff is able to make it, but the chances of his recovery seem very slim right now. If he does, he'll have this experience as a documentary of how bad he was. He would probably be shocked and ashamed if he gets clean, cause I'm sure he has no idea of how bad he is and probably won't remember.

P.S. Britney Spears should be watching this show!

I've seen it in my brother-in-law. We have no idea where he is now or how he is.

I so hope that Jeff finds a way out of this. He needs to lose the girlfriend. He looks like he's barely alive.

I finally caught up, this is a really well done show. I at first thought Daniel was a bit preachy but I think everyone probably takes a different role in these situations, I think it is probably a coping mechanism for him. Brigitte definitely plays the mother role.

I hate to be negative and I hope I am wrong, but I have a hard time thinking Jeff is coming through this.

It is early to tell, but the porn star doesn't come across as too serious to me.

I don't know when all of this was filmed, but it must have been at least weeks, if not months ago. As far as I know, Jeff is still alive.

I just checked on IMDb and it indicates Jeff is working on a movie now.

Wow, Jeff must have made a huge recovery, cause there's no way in heck he could work the way he appears in this show. He's really seriously ill.

I played a candy cane in a Christmas play in probably the 1st grade. It wasn't so hard to act.

Yes, but Hukdonreality, you were able to stand up and speak coherently (I'm assuming).

I was a big aluminum foil star in my 1st grade xmas play & didn't have to do anything but look cute on stage & sing a couple of group songs. The staring roles went to the 5th graders who did the xmas show with the 1st graders.

Unless Jeff is going to pose as either a candy cane or an aluminum foil star I think he maybe made alot of progress.

Here I am in my candy cane costume. Yup, it was 1st grade. The second pic is what I looked like without the costume. I'm the second from the right...something wacky going on with the left leg of my shorts, lol.
