Boys and Girls Alone

[dogpup4]

Don't get your hopes up, paedophials.

Boys and Girls Alone is a new Channel 4 series about 10 boys and 10 girls getting their own little village (or something like that) in which they care for themselves. Without parents or adults. It's not technically alone since there's a production crew there, etc. I suppose they have to be there to make the show and prevent them from killing eachother. It's quite a funny reality programme. Has anyone else heard of this? Does Newgrounds like it? Also, linky.

Sounds like a developmental/social psychology experiment.

This is the same thing as Real World on MTV, but now I have to hear them complain that there isn't a night club to go to

I think they're trying to find out which gender is better at building their lives on their own

I think its weird, I dont understand why these parents are letting their children be thrown into this show. Its like a peadophiles heaven, I think its a pretty disgusting thing to do.

[JKMonkey]

i could swear they did

Sounds like the UK version of this show (which I'm pretty sure got canceled).

I think they're trying to delve into a lot more than that.

True... true...

I bookmarked this thread because it is Super-relevant to my English class. We're making stories about what would happen if we and another class (Only kids, no teachers) were the only people left in the school, and there was no way in or out until one class killed the other. This is why I fucking love fifth period.

Dammit I wish they did something like this for all children aged 10. It really looks like it would set the groundwork to help make them strong adults.

As fun as it sounds, I think things like laws and morals will prevent it from being truly interesting.

Oh...OOOOHHHHH! Oh! THAT'S what you meant!

[Serlenia]

Wow, sorta like Kid Nation... I found it entertaining only because it was interesting to see how they got through it and stuff... Yes for some reason I'm interested in things like that but hmmm never heard of this one though but now I want to watch it just to see how well the kids do.
