Well, yeah. All "reality" shows are about entertainment.

Regardless of all those things you say, this does not excuse what they did. The blatant consumerism, the keeping up with the joneses, the "we should have all nice things" approach is always something that bothers me, whether it's my cow orker across the hall, or some family on television. New car? New house? What does Bob have? I need better than Bob...gimme gimme gimme, entitlement, entitlement entitlement. Still, they were given a gift. Whether or not it was the right way to gift them is irrelevant.

They disrespected some people who were actually trying to help.
