I got a good giggle out of this: Subject: ABC seeks famlies who practice voluntarily simple lifestyles! Dear Sir or Madam, I'm a Casting Producer with ABC Television and we're looking to feature families who live by the "voluntary simplicity" philosophy - families who feel that all of the excess technology and "stuff" is unnecessary - families who keep it simple and don't get involved with the craziness of the outside world. We seek that very unique, distinct, fascinating approach to life - a philosophy that perhaps others might not have considered...a philosophy that other families could benefit from! I know that your community encompasses the ideals we're looking for - those great folks that spend true quality time with each other and don't rely on tv, video games, or other electronics to entertain their children 24/7. I feel that you could be a great example for other families and would love to speak with anyone outspoken, outgoing, and passionate about their beliefs and their lifestyle. We're currently casting for ABC's hit family show, 'Wife Swap!' Please don't be confused by the title - "Wife Swap" is a family show on ABC primetime. The premise is simple: two moms from two very different families get the opportunity to swap lives (but not bedrooms - everyone has their own!) for a week to experience what it's like to live a different lifestyle - and to see what they can teach each other about their own! In this case we're looking to feature families who feel that happiness doesn't revolve around having the latest gadget, fastest car, or the biggest bank account. I would greatly appreciate you forwarding my information on to any of your friends, neighbors, colleagues, and family members who might be interested in sharing their lives with us for a week! All featured families will receive a $20,000 financial honorarium as a thank-you for their time - and $1000 goes to anyone who refers a family that makes it on the show! We are looking for two parent families with children (ages 5 and older) who are ready for adventure! I appreciate your assistance in reaching out to these great families and look forward to hearing from you soon!
