TV Today in Trash TV That Will Renew Your Faith in Humanity

Posted by David Schmader on Tue, May 24, 2011 at 10:59 AM

ABC describes the show What Would You Do? as a "hidden camera, ethical dilemma series [that] puts people on the spot"—which sounds like sub-Maury Povich garbage, but as the segment below shows, it can sometimes result in something beautiful and surprising. (Yes, that beautiful and surprising something is totally manipulated and perhaps unethical, but even ten years ago, a segment such as the one below would've been manipulated in a much different direction.)


Don't mess with Texas, indeed.

Thanks for the heads up, Towleroad.
