Never been a fan of Reality TV!
I think it's a travesty that such a simple and devoted way of life(Amish) is being taken advantage of for the almighty TV buc!
I am supried that the elders of this group of Amish would even allow this. Most Amish don't even want their pictures taken by tourists.
Reality TV, such a window into the greed and lack of creativity of the TV world!

Good Point. A bunch of Hollywood actors posing as Amish.

But wait, there's more...
I dunno. 
Amish kids have some period of time where they're basically 'cut loose' to decide if the Amish way of life really IS what they want or not. I don't see what's wrong with it. If anything, it might offer some peeps an appreciation of the lifestyle the Amish folks lead.

Absolutely, but as kids/young adults how quickly do you think they will be influenced by a glamorous life in the big city?
Appreciate yes, respect it, absoutely not.

I think the show should be the other way around. Take some city slickers and make them live like the Amish do. Not the Paris Hilton type show, (that's down right tupid!) but like that movie with Kirsti Alley and Tim Allen. That was good.

That idea/show is probably not far behind this one! How long do you think a true city slicker would last in an Amish setting ?

I can answer this from experience last year when a friend of mine came from New York to Mechanicsville for a 4-day visit. I put her azz back on the train 24 hours after she arrived.
She said things like "how do you people live like this?" "OMG, there are cows here and real horses and buggies and they crap on the road!!! ewwwww!" "In New York, I can walk to no less than 20 bars and 50 restaurants in 3 minutes; this place sucks!" "Your dog is sooo ugly!"
Yes, she actually said Emmitt was ugly!!

Hey Soft Shell,
Whoops, I mean Crab Cake.
Good Article on the show in the Today Section of the Baltimore Sun.

I am so very blessed
Ok..... your friend complained about the lack of activities, restaurants, and bars in the area; complained about horse crap in the roads, and moaned about the cows and horses and buggies. And she ****** the tv installer dude. So, clearly she's not meant for a small town existence. And not to mention she's too generous with her *****.Originally posted by crabcake

But the one thing that ticks me off is that she said your dog is ugly. You were smart to put her back on the train. Too bad your baby didn't bite her before she left, though. Dogs are cool.

What's to stop the TV station from saying, "Oh, hell, put the show on. They don't have TVs anyway, so they can't watch the show"?

SHAAA!
Like it's even remotely possible for a tri-color beagle to be ugly (well, except Christy's beagle, that is, but he's an alien mutant!* )No joke! That was her shpeel while she was here. What was funny is she thought I was kidding about putting her azz back on the train already!
