To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Is there a movement more intolerant and more judgmental than the environmentalist movement? To a budding young socialist joining the circus must seem as intimidating as joining a real circus. Even though such people normally outsource their brain to Hollywood for these important issues, the teachings of Hollywood can often seem fragmented and confusing. Fortunately Ed is here to teach neo-hippies in the art of envirojudgementalism.Here you'll learn the art of wagging your finger in the face of anyone without losing your trademark smirk. You'll learn how to shrug off logic and science with powerful arguments of fear. You'll learn how to stop any human activity that does not interest you by labeling it as the gateway to planetary Armageddon.In addition to learning how to lie with a straight face you'll also learn how to shrug off accusations that are deflected your way no matter how much of a hypocrite you are. You'll be able to use as much energy as Al Gore yet while having people treat you as if you were Amish.In the second season was even more useful as we were able to visit other Hollywood Gods, holy be thy names, and audit - i.e. judge - their lifestyles. NOTE: This is the only time it's appropriate for an envirofascist to judge another because it allows the victim the chance to buy up all sorts of expensive and trendy eco-toys so that they can wag their finger in other people's faces.What does Ed have in store for us in season three? Maybe he'll teach us how to be judgmental while sleeping!

I have been an environmentalist for years and was really looking forward to this show. I had it set to record all episodes because I thought I could really learn some great new things. I probably could if I could get past Rachelle.I'm sure a lot of this is staged to seem like a reality show and appeal to that class of viewer. It doesn't work for someone who's really interested in improving the planet.This show should be called Nagging with Rachelle.Since Ed is such a great font of information, maybe a second show that's really serious about the environment would be a good idea. Dumbing things down is not necessary for some of us. I no longer record episodes or watch the show, but do let me know if a real green show may be in the works.

I admit that I don't find the bickering on the show all that entertaining, and I agree that a little more background on the marriage should be provided-- what, for example, was Rochelle prepared for when she married this guy? Anyway, I do find the show a nice counterpoint to the endless remodeling shows on HGTV. People on the other programs are constantly tearing out serviceable but "dated" fixtures only to replace them with new ones that will be dated in a few years as well, and energy and resource conservation is rarely discussed. The gadgets that Begley has installed are pretty interesting, and I would like to see him host a "how-to" show about running a green household.

HGTV enticed me into watching this show with teasers while I watched the Rose Parade. It certainly seemed like an original idea, and a timely one. HGTV is polluted with a plethora of home makeover shows, and I'd rather see the latest in solar panel technology as opposed to how to glue hay to a wall for a "new look".I quickly became disappointed while watching, however, as much of the show was devoted to the conflict (real or contrived) between Ed and his wife Rachelle. O.K. already, I GET IT, Rachelle doesn't like to conserve energy, and Ed does.There's a lot of angles they can work to make this show not only informative, but also entertaining.You've got one more episode to turn it around, Ed, then I'm bailing.
