So after all the controversy, we decided to check out the TLC show 'All American Muslim'. Aside from wanting to flee from the channel forever at the horrifying, gut churning, nightmare inducing promo ads for other shows on TLC (at least now I know what demographic Lowes prefers), I won't be returning because the show itself is a nightmare of poor storytelling. The producers of the show have no understanding whatsoever of a storyline. It's just all disjointed cuts of poorly explained events. With horrific sound editing to boot. You CAN make this stuff compelling people.
In any event, I only managed to watch maybe 10 minutes of it before I had to distract myself with real life. One thing I learned: Muslim women are not supposed to shake hands with unfamiliar men...
....WAT...
...Honestly?
