I have become slightly addicted to this show as of late. And I've also been seeing lots of questions on whether this show is truely a good thing or an exploytation. Personally I think it's a good thing. It sheds light on how addiction may start out as a choice but it then becomes a disease. I also think it shows to those people who think that quitting something like alcohol or drugs is easy. Of course it isn't. I've always admired Dr. Drew for his knowledge on many medical related subjects, but it's really interesting to me to hear his points on addiction. I don't think the show is exployting any of the celebs on there at all. In a way I think the cameras are like a reminder to them that they should be trying their best to get sober and clean. For some it seems to work and for others it doesn't, but that's addiction for you. It's hard to give up something your body feels it needs. All in all I don't see what the big deal is really. It's a good show and obviously some of the participants are truely trying their best to get better.
