  • VERY NICELY DONE

    Chava & Michoel you did a wonderful job especially in light of the sensitivity of the issues. It was presented in a most beautiful manner. A show like this can go along way to enlighten the Yidden who watched it as to the ways of the Torah & Chassidus. Keep up the great work. Hope to see you on the weekend!

  • Finally!!

    This couple truly represented what Lubavitch Chasidim are about. They were warm & aidel. Chava dressed with good taste, tznius & aidelkeit

    Wow, what an incredibly impressive job you guys did! You navigated sensitive topics with class and presented the halchos and customs in a beautiful way. Very well done!

  • Shmuel Aaron and Malka Forshner

    Chava, you were so regal…..big ya’sher koach to you! (and your husband was OK, too….) You both made a huge kiddush Hashem, and gave the Rebbe tremendous nachas…….(and I was so glad that tv lady behaved herself…….that got me a bit nervous….) I would certainly share this with all my friends…Jews and non-Jews, frum and “not yet frum” ……thanks!

  • Kol HaKavod!

    What a Kiddush Hashem!
    Perhaps this couple would like to go on speaking tours!
    So many would benefit from their eidel presentation. They handled each question with aplomb covering all aspects of dating and marriage in the most beautiful manner…I’ve never seen anything like this and I am a “Kallah” of several decades BH!

    Kol haKavod to them and to Riki Lake!

    Riki Lake also handled herself with a professionalism and mentshlichkeit.
