Personally I am against this TV show. I do not feel that it is right for television to broadcast people's death for entertainment. Death is something that people should get a laugh out of, but something that makes people sad for the loss. The program has probably also raised the suicide rate. This is because people just want to get on TV. Again, I feel that this is stupid. In short, if you can't tell, I'm 100% in favor of not airing this show.
