So I'm flipping through the channels Wednesday night, not expecting
to find anything decent, when I see the opening segment of "Meet Mr.
Mom." The moms get kidnapped for a week of relaxation, and the dads
get plopped into a week of running the household. It was shortly
after watching the famileies realize that EVERYTHING in their
kitchens had disappeared that I suspected this was a show I could
watch.

No "alliances", no plotting, no backstabbing, no malicious intent at
all. I watched the dads and kids try to organize, shop, cook,
clean, and so on, and I was truly mesmerized!

I was positive that the Weisenfarhts had the dinner party in the
bag, given the excellent time management. Corned beef and cabbase
is excellent, if done properly! Of course, once it was on the
plate, it was pretty obvious it WASN'T done properly. And, with
something like twenty minutes to go, the Myers family somehow pulled
of what looked like a fantastic and delicious salmon dinner. Yes,
as another poster mentioned, I would love the recipe!

I laughed; I cried; I cheered; I wished I could play flag football
in the mud; I felt horrible for the Myers when the forensic
specialist found the doggie landmine behind the toilet - every
minute kept me glued to the screen.

Congratulations, NBC, on a tasteful reality show in a field where
the concept of taste is little understood!
