I love to watch stuff on EDs...I'm definitely going to watch it to see what it's all about...but I hope they don't make us look stupid 'cuz that's gonna **** me off...

I think it's a terrible idea to have a show like that aired. Eating disorders are serious and life threatening and should be treated as such. Anything that pokes fun at them is just going to send a message to people that EDs are all about food/weight and that they're just a phase that eventually goes away. As we all know, they don't just 'go away' and many times it is a life-long struggle. If I were you, I wouldn't watch it. If I watched something like that, I would probably start to minimize my problem, and that can't be a good thing.
