Kid Nation

This has become my favorite show. I love these kids. They have shown maturity, a great work ethic, and above all hope for the future. From what I have seen there really has been not a sign of prejudice. These kids always seem to be able to work out their differences with no hard feelings. I love how they shake hands after their differences have been sorted out. I unfortunately don't know very many men that do that. Especially around the children's hockey arena. Adults could learn from these children. The only thing I wasn't all that crazy about was the children having to cook their own meals in the old cook stoves. I think I would have had a hard time doing that. Some of the challenges seemed to have been set up to make the kids fail like the rock hauling one. How on earth are kids supposed to know how much 500 lbs of rock are?

The way the show worked was interesting. As it was said above the kids needed to make the town work in 40 days. The only problem I had about this was that no matter what...the town would work. The challenges were interesting to watch along with the voting for the gold stars. Obviously the older kids were focused on a bit more but even they had something to contribute to the show. There seemed to be a few stereotypes in the town also...the brat, the brain, the idiot, the wise guy, and all of them made the show what it was. I was kind of looking forward to real struggles but there must have been a crew that took care of the kids and the plot was a lot of drama. Ill have to admit the experience looked really fun and I would have done it myself.

The idea of a few dozen kids living in an abandoned western town with no adults sounds like a pretty good concept, but having the whole thing ran by a bunch of pre-chosen leaders kinda defeated the purpose though, even with the leaders themselves being kids, not even to mention all the books the adults left them with instructions on how to run the nation. it made the whole thing feel less like a show about kids learning to survive on their own and more like a show about a bunch of kids going to summer camp. it would have been a lot more entertaining if we got to see them all start out with no directon whatsoever and the kids having to figure everything out themselves, other than the bare essentials of course like cookbooks and stuff like that

I mean, there has to be a lawsuit in here somewhere. I honestly don't know what to think. Like, they just kinda threw some kids into the middle of the desert and then watched as they slowly descended into some "Lord of the Flies" type stuff. This has the the work of an escaped mental asylum patient right? Who funded this?

This was one of the my favorite reality shows. Unlike many other ones they use children, and sets them in real life situations that adults are in. They work like adults, they are divided like adults and are forced to make decisions like adults. The children have changed from whining kids in the start to a united group to fight for themselves.

This show really pushes out the true face of some children; their selfishness, greed, and the bad side. But to work as a group, these things cannot happen, so other kids help and advise them to change and improve, which of course is they did at the end.

Really advise watching at least one episodes, and probably really entertaining especially to kids.
