borninblood Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Has anyone else watched this show? I didn't give it a chance because, I thought it would be like every other reality show, but IMHO it is really good. I've been watching it on youtube. Below is a link for a guy that has all the episodes. The Jewish Kid cracks me up! He is definitely my favorite! http://youtube.com/profile?user=watchnwatch1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoEd Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 I scoffed at it at first myself but actually enjoyed it after I started watching it. Reason being, it was pretty raw and kids shoot it pretty straight. It amazed me how intelligent some of these kids were and how they evolved with no adults to guide them. Pretty intersting show if you ask me. The little pageant girl, Taylor; I could choke the life out of that little brat. Her mother needs the snot knocked out of her for raising such a vane child. That girl is going to have some serious issues that's for damn sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That girl is going to have some serious issues that's for damn sure. That's exactly why I started watching it! The rawness of the whole thing and the honesty/intelligence of the kids. As far as Taylor goes, unfortunately I have never disliked a child that much until now. She is gonna grow up to be your typical Gold digger or trailer trash queen. I absolutely love Jared, the Jewish Kid. The episode that got me watching it was the one where he sneaks in and plays the dance dance revolution game. I'm just now starting episode 8 as I type. I hope there is a season two! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjcdaman Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Yeah, that show isn't staged or anything. I say, no thanks. Give me sports and History Channel, etc. Reality TV is for teenagers and women. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RLeVan Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 They never should have told the kids the star was worth 20k. The attitudes of everyone changed once they found out they were competing for 20k at the end of each week. Without that incentive, we would have seen far more kids drop out.

borninblood Posted December 19, 2007 Author Share Posted December 19, 2007 I agree with that 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoEd Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Me too, maybe they should have made the prize a call home and amnesty from doing chores or something while keeping the $20K a secret until the end of the show. Also, that's way too much money to leave 4 kids responsible for giving to the right people. Not to mention the fact once the 4 kids became councel members they didn't get a chance at the money. As far as gold star winners. IMO Hunter and the one "sheriff" girl were the most deserving. They both seemed extremely genuine in their actions and didn't seem to be doing for the money.

Reic Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 I watched the entire series on tv, and enjoyed every minute of it. $20,000 gold stars, with 3 $50,000 gold stars at the end is awesome for those kid's futures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renaissance Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Yeah, that show isn't staged or anything. I say, no thanks. Give me sports and History Channel, etc. Reality TV is for teenagers and women. Have you watched a football game lately? They are just as over-dramatic, hyped up, and made over as any tv show that's on. In regards to Kid Nation, though, I agree I was kind of surprised that I watched a couple episodes. Some of the kids seem very mature and intelligent - much more so than I was as a pre-teen and teenager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
