sounds incredibly unethical.

yeah, he was very clever the way he played it, to give it a positive outcome but it makes you wander what's coming next.?!

Oh, I missed that. Sounds interesting in a disturbing way.

I'll reserve judgement until I see it...but my initial reaction is that surely it's not right to manipulate someone in that way purely for entertainment.

it probably was unethical but one of the most remarkable things about it was how transformed the guy was by the experience. do the means justify the ends? it was well worth watching though. definately recommend it if you get the chance.

I'll get back to you with my thoughts on it later. I've watched the first ep and it's very interesting so far on many levels.

My gut reaction is to say that this cannot possibly be true. No tv station would take the risk of getting the guy traumatised for the rest of his life, and being sued to Pluto and back over it. Coming to think of it, that goes for quite a few DB shows, so I'm rather certain that a lot is really made up in some fashion. And I guess that that's precisely the point of those shows - to have us guessing.

Used Engines are affordable smart find you can have for your engine needs. It can be your provider of spare parts for your engine.

I’ve now seen both parts of the show and had time to mull over all the implications and whatnot! I tried to keep an open mind as I watched it
