I'm sure it is very interesting. However, I'm not generally in favor of creating moral dilemmas for people as a form of entertainment. Life brings enough of those situations where we have to decide whether to take action or keep this unwelcome knowledge to ourselves without making them up. I'm sure that for some of the people on the show, it's extremely stressful.

I'm one of those people who sits in the corner at the coffee shop (or library, or bookstore, or restaruant...) and watches everyone else - their conversations, their arguments, their gestures, their body language, etc.

So I think I pay enough attention in my day-to-day life. I do applaud what I assume is the idea behind it though - to raise awareness of how apathetic our general population really is... just how mind-our-own-business we are, even when we should step in. ;)
