watched about 10 minutes of an episode where they performed for a fraternity/sorority party.
Looked like it was scripted drama to me. Although it was midgets drinking their own urine, it didn't hold my interest.
My first viewing had them join up with another midget troupe for a "10 midget battle royale!" so it definitely held my attention. The best part is when they decided to head down to the playground to play 5 on 5 midget basketball. The camera kept showing everyone else staring in disbelief at the spectacle in front of them.
I think if I would have seen them drinking their own urine, I might have been turned off too.
