Tonight's episode was taped here on Long Island around Easter. I have ters in my eyes watching the tape of the woman dancing with her relatives two weeks before she died.

I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!!!!

Dolly, was this in/near your neighborhood?
That moment brought tears to my eyes too... so sad for that man to loose his wife and her friends to loose her like that.

This is truly my favorite reality show ever. Better than most of the things on TV in ANY type of show.

Okay, the show is over and I'm sobbing like a baby! However, these are good tears--the kind when you see the goodness that people can do for others.

The show was taped in St. James--perhaps ten miles north of here. It was done during Holy Week when I had too many responsibilities at home and at the church to stop by and visit the site.

Wow, that show was beautiful. So so sad, but amazing at the same time. Those little boys lost a big part of their life, but it seems like they are surrounded by people to make sure they never forget.

Not my favorite house, but definitely one of the best episodes. Sad story. God bless them.

I adore this show. I think one of my favorites was the adorable old lady who they called Sweet Alice. She was just so blown away that "all this could happen in Watts." I guess she couldn't get anyone to come down there because her neighborhood was so bad. I thought she was just the sweetest thing in the world. And then there was the absolutely adorable little boy who had that brittle bones syndrome( I can't remember the name). He was just far too cute...my friend and I get together every Sunday and watch it and cry.

In a world where everyone is out for themselves, this show is a slice of heaven. It never fails to make me bawl like a little girl at least 3 or four times an episode. Sunday nights, you can find me crying over this show then howling over Desperate Housewives.

Anyone know where I cna get a job making life better for other people? Everyone on EM is SO LUCKY.

This was the first time I watched this program and I was a mess within the first five minutes!! I was so engrossed by this program that I ended up missing the first hour of Survivor.
