30 Days

The show 30 Days features folks trying all kinds of things - from a mom who binge drinks for 30 days to prove to her teen that it's not a good choice to folks who try working in a coal mine. And now we have NFL alum Ray Crockett trying out a wheelchair for 30 days. Is it an experience that surprises him? Or is it just another exercise in trying out equipment for a short time? Well, here's the episode from Hulu - judge for yourself.



My opinion? Some good interviews and information were included and I think Ray was pretty candid about distinguishing between his "role" and the reality of those of us who use wheelchairs in our lives. Gotta love the quad rugby players beating up on an NFL superstar though, huh?

Pretty decent job. It didn't fall into that usual stuff except with the confined to a wheelchair remarks in the beginning.

Not bad... I would've liked to see them address accessibility (or lack thereof), but overall, I think they did a decent job.
