Question anyone else going to be watching Moment of Truth tonight?

I'm so excited about this show, lol. Just the right mix of controversy and contestant hell. I have to say I know there's NO way I'd ever agree to being on the show.

Definitely, yes! Watch these people squirm!! LOL!!

I heard in another country it was cancelled because one of the questions was asked of a woman, "have you ever hired a hit man to kill your husband"!! I think the answer or wrong answer got her in big trouble!! Can you imagine???

I heard on a radio show this morning that one question will be "do you think your dh is gay"

Can you imagine going on tv and having to answer that!

I am watching the show, too! But, DH and I were talking this morning---there is NO WAY that we would go on that show...no way! Too much info is told on national tv.....These people have got to be pretty desperate for money or simply just be on television to go on there and HAVE to tell the truth just for a buck! But...I'm watchin' it!

I saw it because my daughter was watching. I thought it seemed silly and staged. After each question the guy took forever to answer then they took forever to say true or false. Oh well, I've never been a fan of these reality type shows! So my opinion is probably biased!

'Is that your real nose?' is maybe the best conversation starter ever.

I've been waiting for this to come on and I watched it last night. I really enjoyed it! I can't believe what happened with the first guy...when he said that he was hesitant to start a family with his wife because he wasn't sure the relationship was going to be long term...or something to that effect!...Boy, was she pissed!...And I'm wondering if he's going to be out of a job after lying about the touching more than necessary with his female trainees!...Or maybe not!...I thought he was very handsome so maybe he'll get alot of work after this show...The wife was beautiful...She was wondering what he meant by "have you done something that might make your wife not trust you?"...Again, I believe that was the question...I was really tired last night and had alot of distractions going on around me here with my son's friend over the house...Anyway, I can't wait for next week! No, I can never imagine going on a show like this! ~Lisa

Concept of the idea is interesting but the show is too staged and the dramatic pauses go on too long to be dramatic. They are at the point of just being irritating and bothersome.

I couldn't make it through the whole show last night and will not tune in again.

I actually think some of the questions are 2 sided. Come on you cant explain your actions. I did like the show , but the wait, and the pauses were soooooooo long I almost fell asleep. maybe it will get better as time goes on.

I felt sorry for the first wife, Darn, I dont think I would want to go home with him after that. But you did hear her answer about kids??? Nice Post OP

DH and I were both appalled at the premise of the show, but did watch last night. No doubt in my mind families, marriages and friendships will be destroyed. It's amazing what some people will do for money. Can't speak for DH, but I won't be watching again. What an utter waste of time.

he said in the next 5 years he wanted a couple kids and a house (something like that) and she said "I don't know about the kids"....so basically, she doesn't want kids

I watched on and off for a bit and then just watched Supernanny (which was much better than moment of truth IMO)

Thought her answer about kids fit nicely with his admission that her having a flabby tummy would not make him happy. If that dude was such a great personal fitness trainer, he ought to be able to whip his hot wife right back into shape.

DH just looked @ me when the tummy/kids questions were asked and laughed as I shook my love handles.

Got two beautiful kids and I'm darn proud of my flabby tummy!

I was hoping they'd go further w/ the first couple b/c I really wanted to know why that other woman - his friend- was there.

I agree! We tried to watch for a bit, but it was sooooooo slow that I was bored and turned it off. The dramatic pauses had me laughing after a while, it felt like a bad soap opera.

I don't think I would watch it again.

I did watch the first 5 minutes. Sorry, I think it's a lame program. And who in their right mind would be a contestant? Just how much money can you win.? How much did the first man win? And, after spilling your soul, can you walk away with nothing?

I was thinking the same thing. I bet they had a relationship at one time or he may have cheated with her in some way. She looked nervous too. Maybe that is why he lied on the last question about his clients. He didn't seem surprised that it said he was lying, and at that point he didn't have to answer any more questions.

That first guy walked away with nothing and after the answers he gave about his wife/children/not staying with her, he may have walked home alone!!

It amazes me what people will actually do for money. I see a lot of broken hearts and marriages and friendships if this game continues.

Gosh, what's next on reality TV??

I was really looking forward to it, and watch the whole thing, but I probably won't watch again.

The contestants take way too long to answer, and "the voice" takes waaaay too long to say if they got the question right or not. They really need to move this show along if they want to keep people watching for an hour.

I personally would never go on a program like this. I can't imagine what these people were thinking when they signed up for it - the money is not that great.

I had DVR'd the show and just watched it - How could such a promising concept for a show stick so much! I'm glad I had recorded it because if I had to sit through it without being able to FF through the garbage I would have turned the channel. I hate shows that draw out the answer and then use half the show "chatting" in order to stall for time.

I mean they don't even give out a lot of money. Why waste so much time and not just play the game!!!???

Could have been good..too bad, I won't watch it again.
