This is why Extreme Make-over is Stupid
I have been annoyed at the premise of this show and it one of very few reality shows that I completely ignore (the others are Survivor, Big Brother, & American Idol - in case you care).
I think its great for a show to centera around helping families in need, but this exibition of excess brings with it even more problems. Here's a local example. People who can't afford a large house to begin with, aren't going to be able to afford their now larger utility expenses, maintenance, or reassessed taxes.
