I’m guessing a lot of you fit the bill!
I can’t wait to see what happens with this! So many people are going to apply!
@meital So does that mean you are going to apply?! I think you’d be a great fit – so young and energetic!
I agree with BB about Meital. She would be great on this kind of show, as she’s quick with a reply, and absolutely adorable! Hope it won’t interfere with her college studies.
My husband needs to be on this show. He’s the cheapest man in the world! There are times where items will be 75% off and he’ll still tell me it’s not a good enough deal! LOL This is definitely his show!
@Sara Stinson He should totally apply! I bet they get a lot more submissions from women, so this makes him unusual – and interesting!
@Everyone ~ No concerns about the legitimacy of this casting director? Wouldn’t it be ironic if this were some type of scam? I’m NOT saying it is, but “an ounce of caution . . .” Otherwise, go for it!
@Diane: That’s what Google is for! A quick Google search for Emily Sweet casting brings up her IMDb page. She has a lot of credits as casting associate for some well-known reality shows, so I’d say she’s legit. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2415057/
@ N. Davis ~ Good point! It never occurred to me.
