Oh yeah I've seen that. "Documentaries" like that have basically replaced the old circus freak shows. On the one hand, some of these people are prevented from making a living because of their condition and therefore benefit from the attention shows like this bring. At the same time it's pretty sick that this is their only option.
I hate TLC too. Do they really need to call people who are around 700 pounds "Half Ton?"
