Wife Swap (Channel 4)

This programme is hilarious, there is a U.K version and a U.S.A version which is usualy funnier as the families on the show are from such different life styles. The show was created by Stephen Lambert and is aired on Channel 4 and E4. The show is around an hour long. The idea of the show is so mad you would think it was an American show but it is a totaly British programme. The idea of the show is two families will swap wives for two weeks, the first week of the show the wives must live by their new families rules which are always nuts, during the next week they can change the household rules and make their own up. The camera crew follow ...  Read the complete review

I think Channel 4 is really great and over the years they have come up with some really entertaining shows, new ideas and concepts that have not been on our screens before. Wife Swap has got to be one of these programs, it first started when reality television was really popular and is still on our TVs now. However as with all reality shows I would say it is not as popular now, I think people are bored with wannabes using reality TV as a stepping stone to get in the public eye. Wife Swap is just another of these shows. Wife Swap is shown on Channel 4 and it can normally be found on 8pm on a Sunday night for an hour long show, although I don't think it is on ...  Read the complete review

In the glory days of Channel Four it was they who pioneered reality TV, some of the best and most original shows coming from the independent channel. Early Big Brother was fascinating and shows like 'Faking It' were really uplifting for their target audience.

Wife Swap was perhaps the worst for this, soon deteriorating into fat uncouth working-class people slagging each other off between cigarettes and swigging canned lager, inviting a more sneering viewer to tune in. The first two series ...  Read the complete review

WIFE SWAP CHANNEL 4 Just one of the many programmes i watch, (when i am fortunate to have a bit of spare time to sit and watch telly, in between moving flats recently, working and general day to day things. Wife Swap is a great sorce of entertainment, it s focas is around two families swapping, households, well not the whole family, just the mums usually, and you not only get an insite in to how the other family live, it also looks at the families behaviour from an outsiders perspective, and thats why two of the family members swap house for a week, and one goes to the others house to stay, and each of the other wives leaves a list of ...  Read the complete review

Wife swap is a programme usually on channel 4 it is a programme to try and get families to change things that the are so used on doing that is more like a bad habbit to change by swaping wives around in two different families. By doing this then it takes someone to come in from the outside and say what changes need to be done in the house. Well for example if a wife has been swaped and she is a non smoker and the husband is smoking around kids she will try change this. That is just an example some things come out of it that families benfit out of the programme. It is good when the bring in rule changes which is when the new wives run the house the way they ...  Read the complete review
