Brat Camp

Fri Aug 05, 2005 12:03 am

I'm pretty sure there isn't a topic on this show but i'm gonna make it anyways.

For those who havn't seen the show its about a group of teenagers that do drugs, steal from their parents, try to kill people etc but there are also kids who are emotionally hurt like there is this one kid who's dislexsic (spelling) and his brother always makes fun of him. Anyways mentors try and get them to let out all of their steam and Basically they are bad kids that have been sent to a camp to learn how to let their anger out. I probably havn't worded this in the best way possible but i tried my best :)

I really think this show is boosting the sterotype of all teenagers are druggies and get stoned. But then the show is also good and makes parents relize that their kids are good (unless they really arn't) What does everyone else think?

When I saw it I thought there was a bit too much stick and not enough carrot for my liking, but it seemed to work so meh.

My favourite character is either the "angry punk," the "compulsive liar" (who probably is just lying about being a compulsive liar), or Mountain Wind, the hippie.

:hug: Heh heh, that deserves a hug. (That compulsive liar probably is lying about being a liar for attention.)
I watched this with my cousin and my aunt one day before we went to the mall, and I just found it silly. There was the druggie, the liar, like o_0 said, the angry punk, the goth, the "gansta", the depressed one...it was just stereotypes. But at least my cousin and I would say, "See? Makes us look like angels in comparison, doesn't it?" 0:)

You're forgetting the "stabbed twin" kid. ROFL. I think they should have called that kid something more dramatic like, "Homicide Attempter" or something.

yes, more fun games for my mother to put her four sons through. =)

In all seriousness though, it's not that bad of a show.

Oh, I suggested sending the lads there sometime, but my mum was none too keen.

I wish someone would break their spirits already...

It's rather lame, but if the kids are brats then...

EDIT: 555th post! :P

All the hippies are great, all the kids are brats with bad hairstyles. < Though I have grown fond of the spaz.
