I know the last thing anyone wants is to debate the ethics of this show, but the release they had the parents of the kids sign is really unbelievable. You can read it here. And honestly, I don't personally care what other people do with their kids so I guess it's their deal, but signing that release in the hope that your kid might somehow end up on TELEVISION ZOMG! amazes me.

Amazing what people will do to get on the TV.

LFS,

Anyone who watched "Showbiz Moms and Dads" would not be shocked at all by that. The things some parents do to live vicariously through their children is absolutely insane.

You sure they're not licking vicariously through their children?

I mean "live," of course. Duly edited.

Now my joke makes no sense.

This show was pretty good for the first 15 minutes. Then they divided them into teams, and had a challange, and it was just another reality show. It would have been better if they just took 40 kids, and dumped them in a ghost town with no instructions, then filmed what happens.

I also don't like the way the host talks down to the kids.

Prediction: failure

show yanked/won't make it half way
