Re: Miriam Rivera documentary
I'll watch it - and keep an open mind, but I'm not really sure if I see the relevance of telling her story.
By now, most people have forgotten about 'There Is Something About Miriam' which really wasn't that much of a big deal even in it's day. It was hardly a most talked about TV show.
Wonder if they talk about her porn life much? I know we had her on some of the sites at some point.

I think the key relevance is, if done today, would producers of a 'reality' tv show conceal the 'twist', given that the men all sued the company and it was not broadcast until after they had received their compensation. There was a real risk of harm being done at the time of the reveal, and allegedly at least one contestant "a former marine, smashed up the villa in Ibiza where the show took place, and the burly bouncers hired to keep the peace ran away".

One also wonders if 'the man from Bremen' who was 'with her' when she was in Europe (Germany and Poland) makes an appearance in the documentary, he was central to one of the threads on Miriam in this forum some years ago.
In the end, who actually knew her?
