I couldn't agree less with the people who gave this show a negative review. Watching it makes me feel like the smartest, most interesting, most brilliant conversationalist on the planet. Any time I need a healthy dose of self-esteem, I just pop in a copy of Gastineau Girls and suddently I feel like a member of Mensa.

Watching this trainwreck for free on television is very different from actually expecting people to pay for it. On television, at first, the main reason to watch was to answer the question, "Are these two for real?" .
But after a few episodes it was pretty clear that, yes, Lisa and Brittney (especially Lisa, the mother) really are as shallow and self-centered and lazy as it seems--with a tremendous sense of self-importance and entitlement. Why do they feel the world should revolve around them? Will people really pay to see them shop, be rude to each other (and those around them), and try to be the center of attention in all circumstances?
When Lisa was recently asked on 20/20 what "The Gastineau Girls" was about, she answered, "Nothing." That sums it up pretty well.

This show is no worse than say The Kardashians or Housewives of Orange County/New York. Yes the Gastineaus are stupid, spoiled airheads, but that's what makes it fun to watch. I say enjoy it for what it is, trashy good fun.
