I think this show failed because the focus was more about helping those ladies, not about embarrassing them, and the "beauty pageant" was not all about appearances. The cosmetic surgery may have been a bit much (though, for comfort's sake, a few came by their need honestly), but I believe the concept of the show was good, and should someday be revamped.

When this show came out, my husband and I watched it every week. It had amazing transformations each week, and the women seemed genuinely happy.
I thought it was a good show in the fact that women who had a lot of adversity, both physical and mental, had a chance to start over.

What happens when women with low self esteem think that by sucking out some fat and adding breasts and hair extensions will fix who they are? This show was an embarrassment to women, I liked it but I shouldn't have. Ugly women trying to fix who they were by covering it up wwith makeup and then sticking these poor mud-ducks in a pagent ( what have we become?)I'm so glad that this show was taken off then air, but I'm happy to have it on DVD!
