A Spanish talk show, Patricia’s Diary, is under fire after a guest stabbed his girlfriend in the neck because she refused his on-air marriage proposal. The woman had a restraining order against her former boyfriend due to previous cases of abuse, and some groups feel she was coerced or misled into appearing on the show that ultimately led to her death:

Last week’s appearance by the spurned Ricardo, who wanted to win back the woman identified as Svetlana, was typical in all but its violent sequel played out off screen five days later.

“I want you to marry me. You’re everything for me. Everything, everything,” said Ricardo, getting to his knees and bringing out a ring as Svetlana watched uncomfortably.

Three “everythings” = Crazy motherfucker alert.

Presenter Patricia Gaztanaga had to push Svetlana to respond.

“Come on Svetlana, say something, we’re all here waiting,” said Gaztanaga, before the woman produced the answer that Ricardo was apparently unable to accept: “No.”

This is why we stick to reality TV, where everything is scripted and predictable.

    Didn’t I see this on an old episode of “Jenny Jones”? Except it was a gay guy who got killed for telling his friend he was in love with him. Okay, not the same. But, you know, the killing part.
