Have you heard this new show KID NATION in CBS? Kid Nation is a reality based TV show where 40 children are left on their own, no adults (supposedly), except with some TV crew that will shoot them day and night, in a ghost town in New Mexico. The children are turned loose to work on a government, an economy, and a new human society and like any adult reality tv show the end product is to make some of them the good guys and some are the bad guys. This is basically, Lord of the Flies meets Reality TV. And we will be able to watch them in our sofa in a late TV show (at least in the US) reach the end of their emotional threshold. Which is not surprising because they are children, without their parents for a month.
And because of this the CBS is being challenge by some concerned groups and a media uprising is now started by people who cares about these children. I am interested in the idea, but I think putting children in a challenging situation, where the eldest just turned 15 and the youngest 8, is wrong. Well, this is some kind of entertainment, huh.
This is the trailer and see it for yourself.
