Thought I would share this, in case anyone is interested in 15 minutes of television fame. 
Dear List Owner,
I am a casting producer for ABC Television's hit reality show, Wife Swap. I am reaching out to you in hopes that
through your yahoo group, you might be able to help me find a family for our show. I am looking for a family that
LOVES everything about the HORROR genre! I thought it couldn’t hurt to reach out to you to see if you might
forward my message along as I didn’t want to spam your group.
In case you are unfamiliar with the show, the premise of Wife Swap is to take two different families and have the
mom's switch place to experience how another family lives. Half of the week, mom lives the life of the family she
is staying with. Then she introduces a "rule change" where she implements rules and activities that her family
has. It's a positive experience for people to not only learn but teach about other families and other ways of life.
Wife Swap airs on Disney owned ABC television on Mondays at 8 pm- the family hour! There is another show
that copies ours. We focus on having fun, learning and teaching. They focus on conflict. I just want to make sure
our show doesn't get confused with theirs!
Requirements: Each family must consist of two parents and at least one child between 7 and 17 and
should reside in the continental U.S. (There may be other children living in the home who are older or
younger than the required age…as long as one child is in the required age range.)
My hope is that you would post this information to your group so that if anyone is interested, they will be able to
reach me. Maybe you even have a family in mind that you could refer me to. This is a very unique experience
that can be life changing for everyone. In addition, each family that tapes an episode of Wife Swap receives
$20,000 as compensation for their time. Anyone who refers a family that appears on our program receives
$1000 as a 'thank you’ from us.
I appreciate you taking the time to read this - I know it is an unusual request. If you have any questions, please
call me at the number below. Please let me know if you think you will be able to help me. Thank you for your
time.
