It's Immoral, It's Repugnent and...What Time is it On Again?

Pa sent me a link today to this article.

Apparently, the joke was on the producers at BBC Three in the U.K. when they conducted a bogus focus group in which they pitched a TV show called "Let's Make a Baby". According to the article, they told participants the show "would centre around contestants - all strangers - living in a 'fertility house', with the least attractive being voted out each week. The remaining two couples would then have a race to conceive a child and win £100,000 each." Evidently, the focus group loved the idea.

Funny how this was all a spoof and yet a Dutch Television company is in the process of producing "I want your baby, not your love". In it, "men compete to be the one to donate their sperm to a single woman who wants a baby but not a boyfriend."

Set your TiVos! I'm sure something this whacked out will be gracing the U.S. soon!
