Are you going to watch?

"Witness the emotional struggles, physical complications and financial burdens of this single mother of 14 ... including the private moments and reactions of Suleman's family, as well as Suleman's own feelings, doubts and fears."

That's how Fox is teasing its special on Octomom Nadya Suleman, set to air on primetime tomorrow, Aug. 19.

Will the promise of never before seen footage, etc. make us miss our guilty pleasure, Wipeout? (Oh, we LOVE that show!)
Uh, nope.

Not liking the title much either: "Octomom: The Incredible Unseen Footage." Makes me think of "When Animals Attack" or "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant" (really!)

But mostly it's because of my lack of sympathy for Suleman herself. I wish all her children the best future and the happiest lives possible, but will I spend two hours of my life watching their mother, who has been using student loans and Social Security disability payments to help pay for her children's care, muse about her choices?

At least here's hoping the state will make sure the children get paid for this show and another planned by a European company and that their mother acts responsibly about their earnings.

As for us, we'll be watching the hilarious John and John on Wipeout.

Will YOU be watching?
