My Big Fat Stereotypical Wedding!

Gypsies and Irish Travellers in the UK are upset at the portrayal of their community/ies in the Channel4 programme 'My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding', they say it doesn't show a balanced view of their traditions and culture.
Well of course it doesn't!, it is just another example of the cheap sensationalistic 'freak show' tv that we all seem to crave nowadays!
I wouldn't watch 'Embarrasing Bodies' if i wanted a serious overview of  the current advances in medical science, would I?
