I laughed at first but then realised they have severe autism and so it felt really inappropriate to me... i felt is was tasteless TV

I saw it a while ago. I think it might be morally suspect to make tv programmes about mentally ill people

I didn't know they had autism but still felt uncomfortable watching it. was very very odd. One of them has a website somewhere where she tries to explain her feelings a bit more.

Just seen that one woman has aspergers. All makes sense now. I agree, it's very dubious. I don't know about the other woman but it's very unfair to make an asperger's sufferer into a freakshow for having an obsessional characteristic.
