Decorating Lessons from My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding

Filed under: Lessons • Comments: None

I’ve noticed a big decorating trend on My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding. Most of their trailers are cleaner than my house and my house is pretty clean. The girls seem to spend a lot of time taking care of things. However, what totally mystifies me is that usually these trailers are filled with white upholstery and glass or silver furniture. Just like the big dresses it really seems to be the norm and it’s always perfect looking. I don’t know how they accomplish that when they’re on the road. I want a house with annuity rates fixed but I will want an all white room in it too.

Is It Really the Last Time?

Filed under: Lessons • Comments: None

I always wonder if it’s really the last time that the Dr. Phil family is going to be on. They always act like it will be and they’ve gotten help now. Today it’s the “Ultimate Conclusions”. However, we’ve been through this before and they still crop up every year or two with a ton of new unbelievable problems. Maybe now that Alexandra is out of rehab some of the drama will die down but maybe Dr. Phil also needs to finally stop playing into it. Do you think this is really the last time The Dr. Phil Family will be on the show and can these people ever get it together?

That’s How You Build a Brand

Filed under: Lessons • Comments: None

Product placement is the oldest trick in the book. You might think that you are looking at a cool room with Indoor Fountains but there might be a bag of chips or something on a table that you don’t even notice when watching a movie. Every time the Dr. Phil family is on the show everyone cries. Also I’m sure the audience cries as well and possibly even people at home do as well. I noticed today that they had special tissues or handkerchiefs for each of the crying guests to hold with the Dr. Phil logo carefully placed. The guests even kept it folded neatly so the logo showed perfectly. Now they just need to put some up in an online store for the people in the home audience too.
