Am I the only one who finds this new ABC Family show really disturbing? |
|
It's called Kicked Out where a family kicks out their slacker children and we watch while they fuck up their lives. http://abcfamily.go.com/kickedout/index.htmlDoesn't seem very "family" does it?

3. I saw that commercial and thought it was Geico |
|
I agree, it's a terrible premise. Probably the lowest that the reality show fad has sunk.

Not too much empathy for 20ish lazy human sponges...nope.
I agree that trashy TV's not the place for this kind of intervention.
But, that doesn't change the fact that harsh intervention is needed to get some people to break an unhealthy cycle of abuse.
edit: brain fart

6. Oh, I'm not looking for sympathy for them |
|
I'm just pointing out the irony of this particular show being on ABC Family. It seems better suited for MTV or something.
