Designer Drug, Benn Ray, Metro

What won’t people do to be on television? Answers to that question
diminished by one last year, Benn Ray reports in Detroit’s weekly
Metro Times. Ray’s piece about the two-year-old cable
show Trading Spaces, describes a show devoted to the
proposition that neighbors swap houses for two days while they
redecorate a room in each other’s homes aided by professional
designers. Resultant pink ceilings, hay-covered walls, and
‘puke-green carpet’ have resulted in no lawsuits, thanks to
releases signed in advance by participants.
