They were a few steps away from making a Lord of the Flies reality show. An absolutely unethical and irresponsible idea. I loved it.
Is it ethical to make this show? Probably not, but it’s incredible to see how soon kids can start managing themselves on a large scale.
"For your next challenge. Survive the CIA's attempt to end your communistic lifestyle."
the easiest way to make a kid cry is to force capitalism upon them
Horrible concept but entertaining to watch at the time
Those poor kids, this should’ve been called strange kid torture camp. I can’t believe they got he rights to even make this.
