So - Is this a new one? I ran across it while surfing through the 8 channels I can currently get in on my Dishnetwork. I'm sitting here waiting on a satellite repair guy who hasn't shown or phoned. I think he just made my choice to change satellite providers that much easier. How this show works ~ They literally ambush people on the street or in the line at the grocery store, and give them an instant make-over (hair, make-up and clothes) all in the same day. I sympathized with one woman, who after having been told that her hair color could be better, responded with a "well, that's not very nice". She also didn't accept being made-over. The part I saw was a 46 year old biker chick (who didn't really look like a biker ) who almost walked out before they began cutting her hair because she didn't like their ideas. I have to say that I like the fact that they were honest enough to show how people react to them. While I think it would be great fun to get a makeover (don't we all want an occassional change not to mention some free clothes?!), it would initially feel insulting to be told you NEED a makeover no matter who it's coming from. And when it's coming from these pert little things we see so often on tv these days, it could feel even more insulting if they don't approach it right. Anyways, I liked it. I'll probably tune in again sometime if I'm home waiting on yet another repair guy.
