So, did you hear about the lawsuit filed over Who wants to marry an undead brain-sucking horror? Apparently the contestants are claiming that not being told the woman they were wooing was an evil parasite from beyond the grave infringes on their civil liberties, and that the amount they were paid to participate does not adequately compensate the anguish and loss of face they will suffer as a result. (Admittedly, part of that loss of face is because the zombie tried chewing on it to get at their brains.)
They did sign contracts, and frankly, what were they thinking, going on an unreality show? Everyone knows that the meager entertainment said shows provide comes about mostly due to the fact that the people on them are either losers or made to look like such by the producers. It's all mind-numbing crap. On the other hand, I think the target audience for this one was actually the Undead-American crowd, which is woefully underrepresented on most shows. I hear they don't have much in the way of minds to numb, but I doubt they have much in the way of consumer dollars that advertisers would like to commandeer, either.
