for your guys who dont know the great donor show is a Dutch tv program from the television netwerk BNN It features an women who suffers from a Terminal illness a (Brain Tumor) and before she dies she wants to donate her kidney. And in the show there are 3 contestants who need a new kidney in order to live longer. the tv viewers decide wich contestant will get the kidney by calling or text message. They get a series of questions so that the public know more about them and who they will choose. The tv show already got World Wide fame getting into news papers and on news stations around the world. Mostly negative about the subject. here you can read it on CNN (copy and paste) (http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/europe/05/29/kidney.show.ap/index.html here on BBC http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/6699847.stm i think its cruel to make such a show its like deciding wich of the three lives and that the other two get shot to dead what do you think

I read about that "reality show" for a kidney and think it is pretty digusting. I am glad the United States hasn't sunk that low for a reality show. The fact that people are trying to win a kidney transplant is terrible.

I just saw breaking news about this literally seconds ago that the producers of this were just trying to see whether or not they could get any interest. So this whole thing is basically a hoax. And I am glad about that, because it was a really horrible idea.

It's a new low in TV content offers. I really don't waste time to tell people why I never watch TV... haven't watched TV in 5 years and I really don't miss anything...
