Mad Mad House


    I just finished watching all ten episodes of Mad Mad House on Hulu. The show premiered on the Sci-fi Channel in 2004. However, I had not heard of it until recently.  I really enjoyed this show.
    The program is a reality show in which ten house guests must live with five people of alternative lifestyles. Don: the vampire, Fiona: the witch, Avocado: the naturist, Art: the modern primitive and  Iya Ta'Shia: the voodoo priestess present the guests with challenges and trials each episode. The challenges and trials range from participating in a Wiccan ceremony to drinking human blood.  Each week one guest is evicted from the house based on their performance in the challenges and their personal growth.
    What I loved most about this show is that it opened the minds of the house guests and hopefully, the minds of viewers as well. All of the house guests were able to expand their horizons, try new things, and learn more about themselves. Even though all of the alts deviated from the norm in their practices, it showed that they were just people too. For the most part, they were good people with big hearts.
    If anyone has already seen this show, comment and let me know what you thought of it. If you haven't seen it yet and are looking for an interesting program check it out and then let me know what you think. Here's a link to the show page on Hulu. http://www.hulu.com/mad-mad-house
