When I lived in Minnesota, I watched that Million Dollar Idea show a few times. It was poorly produced, but there were some really great ideas!

That Extreme Makeover lawsuit kills me. That episode was so touching. I really loved Mr. Leomiti, he was so caring about the Higgins kids. And now they're all living "with friends."
Terrible.

Extremely vague....and even if the Leomiti's kicked the orphans out(like the orphans were used to get a mansion built for the Leomiti's - if we think the worst)why could EM-home edition get sued? That makes no sense.

Word on the newsgroups is that Rodeo show with kids of semi-famous people is a hoot.
Robert Blake's son was competing in a team in something, and won. He trash talked them with the worst possible line ever for being the son of Robert Blake: "We murdered you guys!"
