Living With Ed - HGTV
I'm trying to implement green living into my daily life as much as possible, and I find this show interesting. There's no way I could use a solar oven or buy an electric car, but I find some of this stuff inspiring. It's fun to see his wife - the Hollywood type - put up with his green ways. Anyone else seen it?

Here's more information from the HGTV website:
TV and movie actor Ed Begley, perhaps the greenest man in Tinsel Town, rides his electric car to the Academy Awards and powers his home with the sun and his stationary bike. But Living with Ed and his environmentalist passion isn't always a walk in the park for wife, Rachelle. This first-of-its-kind reality green show chronicles life with an earth-friendly fanatic with humor and heart. Check out this fresh unscripted docu-soap about the lifestyle of a diehard activist who puts his money and his time where his mouth is 24/7. Definitely not recycled TV.

I watched last night and I thought it was funny taht his wife has almost no interest in being green. I had no idea he was like that.

We have been watching it for the past 3 weeks. I love that show! I like how he rejects the typical Hollywood lifestyle!

I've been watching it too, I really like it! He is more extreme than I could be, but he still has a lot of great ideas. I loved the recycled glass countertop they put in their kitchen-beautiful

I also caught the one when they got the recycled glass countertops- I agree it was beautiful. I keep forgetting what day it's on here- I did really like the show though!

I wish we got it. It looks like a good show. I enjoyed the website. I dream one day of going solar and getting a windmill in the backyard but that won't happen for a while! :D
