What did you think of celeb rehab finale? It was a tear jerker?!


Question: I watched that series and found it hard to take anything seriously. I've been to rehab several times and had never seen anything even close to the mockery that they depicted in that show. Trips to places like the golf course and Catalina Island. And what kind of rehab center takes it's clients to a restaurant that serves liquor. That guy from Taxi girlfriend walked right in with a bottle with liquor in it. Give me a break! They search everyone and everything that comes into those places. They are run like a strict prison and never give you a free moment from the time you wake up till the time you go to bed. Bad behavior or fraternizing with the opposite sex will get you thrown out in a heartbeat. As far as cell phones, they are not allowed, phone calls are only allowed by apointment and are monitored by a counselor. It didn't show you anything about realities of what is required to maintain long term sobriety. In stead it shows the antics of overgrown children who's only goal was to gain notoriety to further their dwindling careers. It even at times sort of glamorized addiction and treatment as somewhat light hearted and fun. It's a terminal, progressive and fatal disease that should not be exploited for peoples entertainment.

i loved the show.
im really happy that seth and jessica went to sober living. i think that they DEFINITLY needed it because they were there for cocaine. thats hard to get through and im so proud of them. Mary Ellen made a great choice. She may not need it as much as the others who said no to it, but im glad shes taking a stand and she knows what she wants. I really think that Jaimee will start using again. I just dont trust her with her friends. i think that her friends will persuade her to use again and she will. Ricco is great. im glad he said what he said because family did come first to him. He will continue to be sober. Brigiette made a great choice too because she has about 4 kids. she needs to be there for them. Chyna, well. now she knows why shes an addict.

Ilove the show. I wish all of dr. drew and his team the best of luck. and all of the participants in sober living the best of luck. To all of the crew of Celebrity Rehab, continue on the path of sobriety. It's waiting for you :)

No...it seemed scripted. Especially the last scene between Mary and Dr. Drew.

of course the show couldn't be 100% realistic--any one would recognize that going in. But it still gives a glimpse into that world, & that may have an impact on some people. I was in tears, but I am so afraid for all of them. They still don't have any realistic idea of what they are facing, & l'm sure not everyone is going to be able to hold it together. I'm looking forward to a progress report on the reunion show next week...
