Sad has just reached a new level

I'm not kidding.  According to Reuters, who got it from Hollywood Reporter, True Entertainment and Brighter Pictures and co-producing a new TV reality show that

would pit a group of male contestants against each other for the honor of serving as a sperm donor to a woman willing to be impregnated.

And of course we have a twist!  The woman who apparently is so sad as to do this show gets to choose between the final two.  I have never been so flustered about reading a reality show premise before until this.  This definitely has pushed the boundaries way too far.  I'll post the link to the Reuters press release in a few if I am allowed.

How dare you use the name "Soap" in such a context? What would Rod Roddy say? ;-)

"Whew!"?

And I thought we've seen it all.  What's new on DVD?

The winner, however (to steal a line from Friends), will be making money hand over fist.

Who's hosting?  Pee Wee Herman?  Dr. Joycelyn Elders?  George Michael?  This is beyond sad.  It's just plain [Dr. Evil]vial[/Dr. Evil].
