Neighborhood followed several “socially diverse” families–including this extremely happy group pictured here–as they fought to charm the residents of an all-white, Christian, upper crust Texas neighborhood not known for its tolerance of social diversity. The winners received a new house; and much to everyone’s surprise, the neighborhood chose a gay couple with a black adopted child. (Or would that be “adopted black child?” Which way does it go?) The selection process was a nasty one, rife with drama and racial tension, to the point that ABC got cold feet after the show had been completely filmed, edited, and prepared for release. Translation: major, major loss of money. So it must me really good.
Logo aired a clip of the show, which is right here. And then write to ABC and beg them to release the show on DVD, please. [TheMalcontent]
