Does your boyfriend hit on the waitresses at your local bar? Does he refuse to open the door for you? Is your boyfriend a total tool? Then he needs to go to Tool Academy!
With VH1’s ‘Tool Academy,’ relationship counseling is taken to the next level. These couples have come to ‘Tool Academy’ to see if their relationships can be saved--and if they’re worth saving at all. Some of the guys have some major infidelity problems.
The cool thing--or uncool, depending on where your sympathies lie--about this show is that there are cameras posted to catch the guys on film not doing right by their special lady.
Be sure to have a tissue box handy--while some of these confrontations are tear-wrenching, some of the make-ups are heart warming.
