Imagine me in all my OCD glory, but completely self-centered and with no filter on my behavior, and you have Jeff Lewis of "Flipping Out," one of my absolute favorite shows. I know, another reality show...but this may be the best one yet! For me, it's just fascinating seeing someone whose OCD is exactly like mine, but there's plenty of entertainment even if you can't relate to the obsessive/compulsive behavior. In Jeff's case, he's put his OCD to good use flipping houses and making millions of dollars...why didn't I think of that? But at least I've learned that my OCD can't be imposed on others...I don't expect anyone else to clean, arrange or organize anything the way I would...and if I want something a certain way I just do it myself. Then there's Jeff, who pays a multitude of people to do everything from grooming his animals to staging his homes for sale, and is constantly surprised and frustrated when the tasks are not completed to his satisfaction. Throw in the feisty Nicaraguan housekeeper, the ex-boyfriend business partner, the sassy executive assistant/would-be actress, and the rest of the gang, and this show has me laughing out loud at every episode.If you've never watched, check out the Season 1 highlights here.
