The show can be very interesting on some of the subjects they have but the guest that they have are usually only in the Calorfonia area which I do not think it is fair. I sent a question to the plastic surgeon about my face cuz i was in a serious accident 28 years ago and never got an answer. Which is sad cuz he stated he can do just about anything now a days with plastic surgery. But other than that it is a good show. I have not watched in a while but I might pick it back up again.
