I enjoy seeing these stars and the journeys into their pasts.
Matthew Broderick’s episode was great.
I only hope that there isn’t a repeat of Brook Shields bad behavior in the complete disrespect, she showed at one point when being given the rare chance to see a certain area. She touched something she shouldn’t have and I think she actually stood on something, (to reach) to do it. The look on the man’s face said it all for me. Luckily she was the only bad one for that series.
