I'm sitting here doing laundry and getting ready for my trip to Edmonton, and I flipped through the channels. I stopped on Channel 21 to watch the Shopping Bags, a consumer information show that I really enjoy. I went to get another basket of clothes to fold, and when I came back the worst show in the world had started!
On the W Network there is a show called Style by Jury. They take a person, put them in a room with a two way mirror, and have a 'Jury' of regular folks judge the person's style and look.
Then they correct all of the person's physical flaws (as chosen by the jury) and put them back in front of a new jury to re-evaluate the person's look.
The thing that I think is really cruel though, the people are usually the nicest, kindest people who have nothing wrong with them, and they are made to feel badly. Often the recipient of the intervention cries when they hear what everyone says about them. They might not have a lot of money to buy new clothes, or get their teeth fixed, but they are socially concious and good people.
Maybe I'm just a fan of be happy with what and who you are! :-)

That does sound pretty cut throat. Not my kind of show.
