So I was watching "what not to wear" last night (which is grotesque in and of itself), but then the next show that came on TLC was called "That's gotta hurt!". It's all about people's terrible accidents. There are plenty of shows like that on TV, but what struck me about "That's Gotta Hurt!" was the graphicness of the re-enactments. There was one where this guy sawed off some of his fingers, and it showed him clutching his really bloody hand and pantomiming pain. Then it talked about a cat who jumped off of a roof and impaled itself on a fence. They showed a fake cat impaled on a fence, with its owner coming up and seeing it and being all "OMG, my cat is impaled on a fence!!"
They also rate the pain on a scale of 1-10, then flash it across the screen.
