WIFE SWAP, ABC'S HIT PRIMETIME SHOW, SEEKS SUPERSTAR FAMILIES OF INDEPENDENT FILMMAKERS!

The premise of Wife Swap is that one parent from each household swaps places for a week to experience how another family lives.  It is an incredible family experience and opportunity to both learn and teach different family values.

Wife Swap is a fascinating story of what happens when two couples see themselves and their partners in a whole new light. The New York Post says, "It should be called 'Life Swap' because it's not just the wives who learn something here. It's the families."

Potential families can live anywhere in the United States, but we ask that families applying for the show consist of two parents and have at least one child, age 7 or older, living at home. Specifically, I'm looking for families of independent film makers!  If you, along with your family, are hustling in the independent film scene, then I want to talk to you! To submit for the show please email a family photo and description to: gaby.wifeswap@gmail.com.

Each family that tapes an episode of Wife Swap receives a financial honorarium as compensation for their time.   Anyone who refers a family that appears on our program receives $1000 as a 'thank you’ from us. 

If you are a family unit (two parents and children between the ages of 7 and 17) who love an adventure, I would love to hear from you today! Also, please feel free to send this casting along to any families you feel would be appropriate!

More information is available at: http://abc.go.com/primetime/wifeswap.
