    This is legit, I got this email and called Cat. She is looking for JWs who might do this. Wouldn't that be a scream? Imagine the scenarios, anyone?

    Randy

    My name is Cat Wegner.
    I work as a casting director at "Trading Spouses" for Fox Television and
    Rocket science laboratories.
    I'm contacting you for this because I'm hoping you might be interested or
    could help me. I am trying to find interesting families who are active
    Jehovah's witnesses and who would like other people to learn about their
    religion or culture.
    Trading Spouses is a family-themed reality show that airs on Fox, Monday
    nights at 8PM. The purpose of our show is to compare and contrast various
    families across the country while highlighting their unique interests and
    cultures! For example, we've had everyone from hunters to vegans, alligator
    wranglers to family bands, tattoo artists to political activists appear on
    our show. Currently, we are casting for new episodes and would love to meet
    more interesting families who could show the world a little bit about what
    makes them so special! This is a terrific opportunity for any family who is
    energetic and who wants to learn about another way of life. In addition,
    every family who has appeared on the show has been compensated $50,000!
    All families who want to be on our show must have at least one child between
    the ages of 5 & 18 and must be legally married. Please have a look on our
    website: www.fox.com for more details.
    If you know of anyone who might fit this description, please contact me as
    soon as possible.
    My number is: 323 8020538 or please E-mail me: [email protected]
    Thanks so much for your time!
    Sincerely, Cat Wegner

    Oh Randy, That is too funny. That would be definately one reality show episode I would want to watch.

    JW mother. "OK kids put on your best blue jeans, we're going to the Kingdom Hall"

    Kids. "huh, whats a kingdum hall?"

    LOL! That would be hilarious!

    I can only imagine the torture of the visiting spouse having to go through all the rituals...daily text...weekly family study...WT study...FS prep...Sat morn FS...ALL 5 meetings...and then keep up a tidy JW home on top of that! That's not even getting into having to put those pioneer hrs. in if the wife's she is trading with is one...lol!

    I would even feel sorry for the JW family...having to put on the face of a perfect JW family...only to be judged by the world... and worst/more likely by your own JW "friends"

    OMG...can you imagine a career oriented, independent woman being told that her husband is the head of the house?

    There could be bloodshed LOL.

    I wish that they could pull this off unfortunately I am betting that no jw family in 'good standing' would remain in good standing for doing such a thing as appearing on a reality show. not to mention they'd never let the camera crews into the kingdom hall...too bad too because the outcome would surely be so fascinating...can you imagine the woman packing and saying "I can't wait to get back to sanity" on the last day and getting home and kissing her christmas tree or something LOL.

    thanks for the info and for a great giggle, Randy ((((((((((((Randy)))))))))

    love

    Thanks Essie and others. It would be a riot, and I'm sure some JW family will come forward, even if it's risky!

    this is VERY FUNNY

    It will be interesting to see how the Watchtower B&TS will respond. This could be a great showcase for their propagands; or they could condemn it.

    I doubt any JW family ( elder, CO or otherwise) would take it upon themselves to make the decision to appear; not without direct WB&TS approval.

    I'll bet that by the end of the show, someone will get disfellowshipped.

    I doubt the WTS would go for this. The way the editors do things on these shows, you can only imagine how they would make them look. I wish someone would do it though.
