‘Dumped’ – CTV explores the journey of a broken heart on May 14CTV explores the journey of a broken heart, a documentary that tells stories that will make you laugh, cringe and cry…
Everyone has heard or delivered lame “break-up lines”. On Saturday, May 14 at 7 p.m. ET (check local listings), CTV blends some horrible, hilarious and heart-wrenching stories with unforgettable break-up songs and hurtin’ lyrics in the new documentary Dumped. Viewers meet legendary bluesman B. B. King, country songwriter Bobby Braddock and Bret Michaels, from the band Poison and hear their stories about how bitter break-ups inspired the best songs. Anthropologists, bartenders, tattoo artists, a woman getting her wedding dress re-fitted as a cocktail dress – they’re all in Dumped, including “Break-Up Girl”, who comes to the rescue by offering insight into the fallout surrounding break-ups.
Dumped tells the story of several brokenhearted people and their heartwarming and often hilarious journey to make themselves whole again – all set to the greatest break-up songs of our time, including Love Stinks, Every Rose has it’s Thorn and a remake of Don’t Worry Baby recorded for the doc by Gord Downie.
Alex got dumped by his girlfriend and then went into his bedroom for three weeks and refused to leave – he lost 30 pounds and almost lost his mind too. Alex got out of his funk by playing Jason at the local haunted house, where he donned a blood-splattered hockey mask and leapt out of the shadows wielding a 12-inch knife. He explains that scaring the hell out of people cheered him up.
Kate is at home alone in her kitchen, with her cats, looking out the window and wondering why her boyfriend dumped her. Ultimately, Kate gets over this latest break-up by designing a new line of handbags called ‘Mr. Right’ because “unlike a man – a woman’s handbag is always at her side.”
Andrew got dumped by his girlfriend and then started watching High Fidelity every night in the company of a bottle of alcohol. Later, he decides to try ‘positive change hypnosis’ to expunge his ex from his mind. And then, with all of the “extra energy” he has from going on anti-depressants, he starts up his own glam rock band. Finally, he meets a new love.
Dumped tells break-up stories that make you laugh, cringe and cry. Falling in love is the most significant and meaningful experience that most people will ever have and yet most couples don’t stay in love – they break up and that’s when things can get a little messy. Getting dumped is a test – forcing us to go deep inside ourselves and come to grips with who we are and where life is taking us. Usually, with the passage of time, some good wine and good friends, most people survive these romantic skirmishes and indeed live to tell the tale.
