TLC should really fire the producers of “Breaking Amish” because what COULD have been a fascinating peek into another culture is turning out to be even more of a sham than The Bachelor. Jeremiah (last name Raber) is no wide-eyed teen – he’s actually 32 and divorced with three children and he hasn’t been Amish since he was 18! His ex-wife Naomi spilled the beans to a Pennsylvania news station CBS 21, and to Star magazine, AND she claims the show’s producers tried to pay her to keep quiet! She revealed that Jeremiah’s parents haven’t “shunned” him – they SPOILED him – buying him two cars and helping him out whenever he needs money. Naomi doesn’t remember a time when Jeremiah DIDN’T Have a cell phone and he’s fond of strip clubs. That big scene where he got a tattoo was particularly contrived – he actually has had the tattoo for years – it featured the name of his wife and 3 children. On the show he had his wife’s name removed, and passed it off as a brand new tattoo! TLC should be ashamed.

They should be ashamed for every show they have on their channel.
Agree w/ Palermo — used to be a way more classy network. But, obviously, there’s a market for these sorts of shows.
Stupid reality shows.
Janet sure watches some of the greatest rubbish broadcast on television. I suggest she tune into PBS at least once a week.
like this whole f*cking movement is full of.
………PEOPLE REMEMBER MITT ROMNEY?
So in other words, he fits right in with the rest of those reality show personalities, fake & stupid.
TLC really sucks the big one now! What liars!
On the BA episode that aired Oct 14, I could see the wife-beater in Jeremiah come out when he told Kate to ST(bleep)U when Kate called him out on liking Sabrina. Jeremiah is the creepiest of the bunch; even if this “reality” show is bunk, TLC should be ashamed of glorifying an abusive man who’s a deadbeat dad – He should be behind bars not on this show – But TLC chose to cast a loser of society. What kind of message does that tell his own kids, not to mention young viewers?
The long island medium is a FAKE !!! ut nobody can prove that !!! TLC just wants ratings .Shame on them now i think all their shows are fake.
