I have had a couple still-in Ministerial Servants express discomfort with the broadcast.
That's all the specifics I would like to say as they don't know I'm mentally out.

My mother-in-law said she had no interested in watching the broadcast even though it would be broadcasted for the first time in her language. When I explained the contents she seemed disinterested in how the arrangements or mistakes of the GB affect her relationship with Jehovah.
My very much still in friend said it's "cause for concern, but not cause for alarm.", He says he generally has no interest in donating to begin with, so any new donation arrangement would have no effect on him. He said he is however very disturbed that the org. is heading toward televangelism and becoming a mainstream fast food Christian corporation.
A relative who is an elder expressed the opinion that a lot of these problems are likely due to the fact that the society did not plan or expect this system to continue on as long as it has. Now they are trying to compensate through slapstick measures.

Heading toward? Becoming?
They're there!

My wife will not even watch it after I mentioned that it contained a "push for donations"
I think she wants to remain blissfully ignorant, so as to not get too angry....

If they are going to go the tele evangelist route, the next step must involve one of the gb members getting a wig! -

Wow what a great thread! Thank you for starting it and for everyone who has posted so far.
If my wife had watched it she hasn't said anything. But I expect her stubborness to prove me wrong about my fading would prevent her from sharing anything about her feelings about it with me.

My elder brother in law, went to the LDC meeting, some months back. One of the things he heard was about how all the work at Warwick, was going to be of the very best quality! No corners would be cut! And that if you could not perform to those high standards, don't come!
What Topped that off was the statement, After all, don't Christ brothers deserve the Very Best, during their last days on earth?????
Seems to my, Christ did not even have a place to call home, nor to lay his head!

Precisely the problem I have with my wife.
