  • "Beauty is power for women!" WTF????????? SERIOUSLY??? No, correction, INTELLIGENCE and love for yourself and those around you, despite physical differences, is power.

  • I used to be a fat kid and when I first got in shape and whatnot I was a narcissistic asshole...

  • The coach looks like she needs the swan's help also..

  • i cant believe this show used to come on. it was so wierd how they got surgery and looked like new ppl.

  • This show is incredibly sad.

  • The coach herself has an ugly and mean-looking face.

  • It's funny how she said something along the lines of beauty coming from within and that people need to see their inner beautiful to feel beautiful on the outside, but she's pushing these women to go through horrifying treatments just to feel like they're physically attractive...

  • I had to come see this because my teacher meantioned this the other day and how all of them look the same afterwards

  • Comment removed

  • beauty hurts :)))

  • what a stupid fucking show!

  • I was hoping to get my wife on the show...she wanted to go, and I was hoping there would be one for guys so I could do it too! and we could come out and see each others new looks for the first time, boo on cancelling this fantastic show!

  • This is horrible! I Had to look at it for media! why would people encourage this they look like they are in so much pain!

  • I don't think the judge was insensitive at all. Some of these patients are extremely ungrateful and needed a wake up call.

  • I think the coach needs a makeover. She looks all plastic and hideous.

  • i work in media and everything is scripted !!!

  • she's a great couch.

  • nely looks scary and fake.i do agree outer appearance can boost up your self esteem.however,don't cling on to it.otherwise,how can ugly/average people can ever be happy in this life.let it add up to your inner happiness.don't lt it be your happiness.

  • @chilluminaughty also, in time her beauty is going to fade.

  • The coach's personality is as fake as her looks. >:\

  • Dumb American drivel.....

  • somethimes is another haircut and clothingstyle more then enough

  • LOL I remember this show

  • I cant believe this bullshit was actually a show.

  • the coaches r not beautiful either they all look extremely plastic

  • I hate when people say that this show makes women hate themselves. the fact is that taking care of yourself and being physically attractive to other people can help a person's self esteem. I have lost weight because it makes me feel beautiful and happy. there's nothing wrong with getting surgery if it makes you feel good.

  • @ClarissaRN1 surgery can be quite traumatic mentally and on the body. There is also risk for something to go severely wrong. You could even die.

  • This is a morally repugnant show. All of these women were beautiful before. They are usually sweet shy women who have low self esteem and this show is horrible.

  • @ec123456789able No, all of these women were NOT beautiful before. Some of them had rotten teeth, scars, features like huge noses, ears and noticeable asymmetries, bodies damaged badly from child bearing, self neglect, economic circumstances and some of these can create legitimate health problems. If you're happy with how you are, great! Some people aren't. This show was admittedly weird and exploitative but how do the women who were on it feel? Any idea?

  • just hit 7:20 .......this show is shit

  • IM SO FUCKING GLAD THIS IS NOT ON TV ANYMORE...........this is shit

  • Up to? I remember only watching the results not the process. That aint right!

  • I swear to God this is not spam. Everyone who hates this show needs to watc a clip from You Have Been Watching. It's a Britsh show that systemattically destroys television.

    /watch?v=MDfDhVl3DBM Skip to 1:44

    And for the love of all that's decent SOMEONE remove that hideous mask from Nely's face.

  • @AFLoneWolf good clip. i agree

  • It's so funny I was really young when this came out and I really enjoyed it. Now that I am older and wiser - what a disgrace. These poor women with little to no self esteem being exploited. Shame on Nelly.

  • I am a male. My name is Vishal Sharma. I can relate to these women even though I am a male. I used to weigh nearly 350 lbs. Now I lost more than 150 lbs through dieting and exersizing and I feel much better. I no longer get rejected to put in the "friend-zone" by girls. I hope they all have a peice of mind.

  • Oh, Nely is so...ahm... naturally beautiful! ¬¬ (i'm scared o_o)

  • its sad how they all got plastic surgery instead of showing them how love themselves

  • @vintagelondongirl That's nice and dandy but we live in the real world and if you aren't beautiful your life is drastically less pleasurable and you are treated like an ugly duckling. This plastic surgery was cheaper and quicker than years of therapy that aren't even guaranteed to work. All that matter is that they are happy and when you are pretty your life is significantly better.

  • @MsAgnosticatheist uhhh cheaper ?? surgery cost thousands of dollars and no not everyone's life will be miserable if they're so called "ugly" most of those people make their own lives miserable because they are constantly putting their selves down and want everyone too feel sorry for them.they should be happy.. that they actually have a normal body and face some people don't

  • @vintagelondongirl These women didn't look that bad, but some of the people on the original super makeover were borderline deformed. I'm not saying that to be mean but I mean that they look abnormal enough to be ostracized by society and getting that make over was like reconstructive surgery. If only society would accept everyone the way they were.

  • this show just lowers peoples self-confidence

  • I wish I could have been on the show ;(

  • All of their lives, these women suffered from low self-esteem. Probaby due to mental & emotional abuse inflicted by family, classmates, society, etc. Yet this ugly Coach is being abusive and bullying these women and making them feel even worse than they already feels. Coach needs to go back & get some training on sensitivity.

  • @desires4u2 it's fine, she wasn't actually a life coach. she's the executive producer on the show. the psychiatrist also on the show got her degree online, from one of those rent-a-colleges. what an absolute mess this show was.

  • One of the most disgusting reality shows ever!

  • Like a guy in the army? WTF!? Guys in the army are fuckin' hot. They exercise frequently. What's NOT HOT is not being able to move your face from all those botox injections.

  • I don't see what the problem with this show is. everyone has different good things and bad things. some people aren't good at athletics, so if they want to be good, they hire a trainer.

    some people aren't as naturally intelligent, so they hire tutors

    some people aren't as naturally beautiful, so they do stuff like this show

    who are you to call that superficial?

  • POWER TO THE BOOB!!!!

  • these women are just screaming for abusive husbands.

  • The coach is seriously ugly, I bet she was gorgeous before she had a bunch of plastic surgery.. :/

  • I give credit in the sense that this show was groundbreaking and original....but unfortunately NOT in a good way. This show only further perpetuates stereotypes and adds to the already high percentages of women and men with low self-esteem. Sad that this show was once part of our culture....

  • I used to REALY like the show..

    

  • The girl at 4:45 is not even ugly. She's at least 7/10 with little bit of make up

  • the literally remake them as if they wont be liked otherwise. they should make a program where they help women feel beautiful no matter what.

  • I used to LOVE this show when I was younger but now that I'm older it makes me sad because it basically said, "Hey if you want to be happy and 'beautiful', get tons of painful and expensive plastic surgery!"

  • man am i the only one who still likes this show? it entertianing nothing more thats what i look for in shows im not stupid enough to look up to these women and hey if it makes them happy then so be it! i rather live life than worry my whole life about something i dont like about my body

  • @poopersooper123 i couldn't agree more

  • No one is fully satisfied with the way they look, but this is taking it way too far. If you are a stable person who wants to have a little surgery, while I disagree with it, its your choice. These women were taken advantage of and their emotional problems that they had to begin with were manipulated to make money for the host of a shitty tv show.

    This is sickening.

  • Wow, this is pretty vile.

  • Holy shit, how did I ever like this show?

  • omg how was I stupid enough to watch this show, I was 11 turning 12 and I looked up to these women, what the hell?

    138 pounds? are you kidding me?

  • OMG Im european and this just sounds CRAZY to me... §offence to all smart americans but i can tell somethings wrong with america: I dont get it; just cant ! this is so wrong. Those women should have gone through a therapy to get better have a better self estim and THEN if they really really want to do a little surgery its okay but this tvshow seems to show that plastic surgery is solution to everything ... WWRONG ! so sad

  • @HoneyCherriesMakeUp You see, in America people only care about making money, even if they have to destroy other people's lives to do it. It's really sick but that is the culture of the U.S. Here, we don't give a shit about people's happiness; money is more important than human life to Americans. I'm Armenian but live in this fucked up country and I hate the people here. You're lucky to be in Europe.

  • @jfkjrlover

    There are kinds of people in the U.S. i'd say you need to find another crowd, the crowd you are around is simply a reflection of you.

  • Nely Galan is one of the most mean, vile women I've ever seen, You can just see it through the way she treats the contestants, the way she acts like she is above it all. She deserves to be locked up, in all honesty.

  • I loved this show, watched every episode and couldn't believe when it was canceled after just two seasons. I was hoping someone had uploaded the series but know one has, I would love to see it again. Now all these comments, what was I thinking , how terrible, it sent a bad message, really? What percent of people are attractive maybe 10% so if you had a chance to improve your appearance that's a bad thing? If you love your self why not improve the out side? All the things we do everyday to look

  • I used to love this show...but now I'm like wtf? lol. Oh Fox...

  • This is terrible

  • WTF!!! i literally cnat believe this!

  • This show should be illegal. The host or whoever that botox looking freak is who runs this show should take a nice look in the mirror and see how unattractive all of this surgery has made her. They should not be teaching these women that this is what it takes to be happy.

  • @Jordan16Montague You are absolutely right!!!!!!

  • woman at 1:10 is ugly.

  • damn, the swan coach is one of a hella botox freak. why are they forcing the girls to do stuff they don't? jeez

  • You know what disgusts me? Genetics and how most times people don't come out looking like sexy models. Why is that? Why can't all people be 10s? It's not fair!

  • This is just wrong

  • i am genially disgusted with this show....

  • This show is terrifying.

  • this is the most disturbing show. the ppl who thought of this are insane and needs help

  • This is seriously fucked up. That's pretty much the only way to put it.

  • does anyone know where can i watch free full episodes of this? i need this for my analytical essay!

  • They put scars all over her and tell her she has to wear the scars like jewels. Hmm.

  • I actually watched the first season. Many of the people weren't as ugly as they thought they were.

  • I don't no why ABC stopped making this show & instead has the home makeovers. As it is we live in a shallow world we are judged by how we look and that reflects our self esteem, careers, and relationships. It doesn't matter if people refuse to accept that 'ugly' people face significantly less satisfying lives because of their looks. What matters is that they do. I don't blame them for wanting to make their lives easier with surgery. In reality when you are 'ugly' you are treated like a leper.

  • i also loved this show when it was on tv...but now i see !

  • they just fuckup peoples lives

  • Damn. This show is fucked up. SMH. Glad I didn't watch it when it was on (I was like 11). Seems like a real self-esteem downer

  • I think this is very sad. I wonder what God thinks of where we are as his children on this planet. Happiness comes from loving who you are and doing for others more than you do for yourself. These are the only things that will bring the inner happiness that these poor people seem to have lost. No surgery in the world is going to fix this.

  • I think 99% of the women in this show already looks good and do not need this.

  • This is so stupid I can't believe I used to like it

  • i loved this show <3

    what happened to it?!?!

  • God I weigh 142 ..im 5'5 and 15 years old...and accroding to everyone I know Im pretty hot!

  • @lyam409 Can I have your number so?

  • @TheJumpeen Are you cute? lol.jk.

  • @lyam409 i confirm yes ure hot :D

  • The couch Nelly is not beautiful. She looks so plastic, her mouth is so big. Her facial movemnts look so hard and give her a horrible appearence, she thinks she is beautiful but she isn´t.

  • I got depressed after my beauty surgery, so i'm telling you- for real, it's not always the right way to go.

  • I used to like this show but this seems really degrading. Extreme makeover at least made the people feel good about themselves and they didn't have superficial standards.

  • I don't think there's anything wrong with getting plastic surgery if you've been permanently disfigured in some way or if you have a physical feature that is so extremely exaggerated or odd looking that it upstages everything good about the rest of your facial features. But 98% of the time it's unnecessary. Some of these women should never have been picked by the Swan because all they needed was a little make up and nice clothing.

  • Everyone is talking negatively about this show but I wonder where are the people that make fun of people making them feel ugly. This show was created to make people happy because the same people that are against this show make them feel ugly. So, who is really at fault here?

  • We all love a few hotties but this is fucking absurd. The production team need fucking carpet bombing.

  • Productions like these should be targeted by terrorist organisations. No mercy to these plastic puppets.

  • what the fuck is this and how the fuck did i find it

  • Worst.....show......ever

  • that`s fucked up

  • This show was awful. What a terrible message. :(

  • I thought this was Ms.Swan from Mad TV

  • These women were beautiful the way they were. There's nothing wrong with weighing 138. There's nothing wrong with having scars. The girl that's talking to them all looks like she's made of plastic. and she made the rest of the girls look fake also.

  • This show was the worst idea ever! It's saying to every woman in America that "you will never be good enough" These poor women needed to be loved and supported with the bodies they were born with, not sliced, chopped, injected and lasered into what society thinks we should look like. I pray my daughter never feels the way these women were made to feel.

  • This show is so messed up

    Makes everyone wanna go get there body done

    can someone say PRODUCT PLACEMENT

    I swear thats what is was back than -bet there was swarms of people running to the nearest plastic surgeon the year this came out

    cant believe I watched this when I was young

    like there is one kind of beautiful

    surgery will not make you happy

    SICK

    what not to wear is like this but better - just giving a makeover and not reconstructing there whole body

  • this is awful.

  • Comment removed

  • Read; 'Empire of illusion' by Chris Hedges

  • @WinstonSmithsBrain I love that book!! And Hedges ripped The Swan a new one

  • SHALLOW ASS SHIT!!!

  • I read through and see alot of hate .... Wtf most of the women on that show needed that help if only to help there sex life, dont understand the hate for a person trying to look better ,

  • I have seen this show , its good these women not all but most have no self esteem and feel less than one should , so bravo anything to make a woman happy is a good thing , woman already have MORE power just dont know how to use it !

  • @Z7EXTREMEBABY Your grammar is poor, so I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to say here..."it's good these women have no self esteem"? Seriously? Women are coerced into believing that being thin and beautiful is an achievement, something they must aspire to and that they're failing if they don't. Reinforcing those beliefs and bullying them is in no way a good thing. Also, "women already have MORE power" - well that's just bollocks. There is still gender inequality in society, end of.

  • Nely Galan is not good looking! She looks kinda scary and constructed! She's a disgrace really!

  • And spending three hours a day in the gym? when do I get time to have a life??

  • 'I've finally learned that beauty is power for women!!'

    Please tell me you are joking.....so, intelligence,strength, motherhood, none of these mean anything? I feel sorry for this woman when she finds out that surgery can't help her anymore.

  • disgusting...

  • so glad this show was canceled.. its so superficial and pathetic

  • This is deeply disturbing and gives out a terrible message...

  • Stupid woman, stupid women. It doesn't matter what they look like because they all have the same annoying cackle coming out of their mouth.

  • Workout 3 hours a day? This bitch really annoys me. She calls her self a life coach/motivational speaker, whatever the hell she is, yet she doesn't seem to understand that beauty comes from the inside. What a stupid whore

  • They should seriously give these women cannabis before and after surgery. No pain =/

  • this is sick!!!! typical american

  • lol that chick get redddddddddddddddd!

  • 138 isn't even fat. i mean she looks good. i don't get it this is so horrible. it sends such a bad message.

  • why is it called the swan? i saw the thumbnail of the lady with bandages over her ears and it reminded me of swan lake lol

  • The saddest part was when the little kid said I don't recognize u mommy!

  • i watched this show when i was little and i thought that they got really beautiful... and didn't get the message at all but now i do... and this is fucked up.... xd lol

  • these women were not even ugly! hidious, absolutely hidious show.

  • "I'm beautiful"!

    For now...mahahahahhahaa

  • this is fucked up...

  • ewww swollen lips

  • I liked this show when it was first on, but now that I'm older and understand the message that comes across from it, I'm pretty sad about this.

  • @nerdsrule06 omg me too.

  • @nerdsrule06 yeah, self improvements terrible

  • Nely "GAY"len

  • anyone know where this can be downloaded or watched?????

  • @CutieReviews

    Polish TV "polsat" at 12.00 at friday , title : "łabędziem być"

  • Nely one more time part 3 are always better just to see what's going to happen.

  • Comment removed

  • ALL OF those women on the show, could have looked just as good, if they worked out a little and put some makeup on. LOL pleaseee....this show was disgusting. And the way Galan says that she wanted to have women see that will all the lighting and airbrushing everyone can look good?? Where was the lighting?? All there was was a scalpel!!! and fake motivational speeches...

  • im ugly and im a guy, and as a result my life is shit but i would NEVER EVER FUCKING GO ON A SHOW LIKE THIS - and the kicker is I would NEVER EVER FUCK A GIRL ON THIS SHOW.

  • honestly, this whole focus on beauty as the sole measuring stick for a woman's worth is totally disgusting. Women will never be free as long as they allow their lives to revolve around "attractiveness", instead of focusing on using their spiritual potential. I mean, how come there are no shows trying to turn people into geniuses in a few months?

  • they all got nose jobs?

  • Wow, that Nely chick is fucking disgusting. If she's supposed to be "the beautiful woman coaching the ugly woman to be a swan" then that is fucked. I would never want to look like that freak of a being. Ugly inside and out, teaching these poor women that they can't be anything unless they're done over by the plastic surgeon.

  • that show makes me wanna puke.. I watched it once because i don't like to judge too quickly but seriously, it's sick

  • Dumbest, Most Disgusting, show and show host ever. That woman should have therapy not another Botox injection.

  • These coach woman's face looks freaky.

  • What's wrong with weighing 138?

  • @ValleyGyrlTV u won't see your penis

  • when i was younger i love this show..now this is just plain disguisting. how they even made this show at 1st place?!

  • This is disgusting and disturbing. These women don't need a surgeon they need a counselor, and FOX has taken advantage of women with self-esteem issues at troubling times, exploiting their need, with that conniving "coach" giving them manipulative nudges to keep the show rolling for the sake of network ratings. Welcome to 2010, America, this is the s#it you are pumping into your kids' brains.

  • tears help with the skin tightening process. good job ladies.

  • 4:45 she has so much botox she can't even show emotion when she cries.

  • I think people should do what makes them happy. Live and let live. Stop judging everyone by your own standards. Some of you people posting are downright mean spirited. Mean-SPIRITED!

  • yes, award people with low self esteem with surgery. to finish the whole thing, give them a plastic crown and flowers that would die in 2 days.

  • what's so sad is that todays society says whos pretty and whos not and how much these women have to go through to fit in society and feel like actual human beings and fit in society

  • I used to love this show! The host is a bitch though

  • LOL.... 1:46 she turned really red!!!....she was embarrass cuz she knew she was lieing

  • Comment removed

  • Nely Galan is so ugly! Bleh

  • o.e FUCKING HELL!!! THIS IS HORRIBLE!

  • this is sickening.
