This girl on sweet 16 on MTV,mygod, where do they get these people,I have seen more actrive people on Sweet 16 She's the one that wants to break dance. Yay I know there daddies pay for there 16 party. But,talk about spioled little brats. I WANT THAT I WANT THIS. I never had a big sweet 16. I'm glad I am not 16 again.
 
Omg i Know, i just wanna reach into the tv and slap those little bitches around
 
Better yet. Reach for the remote control and never ever going back to MTV again that's all.
 
jajajjaa. yeah.

they make BIG drama about the shittiest thing always. and i hate that they always get "surprised" when they get the car, like they didn't know that is a sure thing if you're recording to that show.

sometimes i can see the whole episode, sometimes no.
 
i thought this show was midly amusing because you saw how much spare time these rich kids have and how lame they actually are. but when i saw the episode with the 15 year old and her mom (the mom looked exactly like the 15 year old....plastic surgery) and the girl had too much make-up and earrings on.

"I am going to make myself popular after this party."

Its like wow.......really bravo.....wow. the show is a waste of money.
 
Tell me about it. I watch it (when I have the time to watch TV!) just to get a good laugh at the ridiculousness of these people's lives...It's like...How can MTV "celebrate" this? They are so past their prime.
 
I tried watching it when it first came on but couldn't do it. Those kids are way beyond spoiled and need to be checked.](*,)
 
All right, anyone mind if I go on a bit of a rant here? Not about the kids on the show (yes, they're spoiled brats), nor about the show itself (yes, it's insipid). But about the people who are watching it.

To wit, all you lot who posted above.

I'm not here to pretend I'm better than you for not watching the show. (Technically, I haven't seen it except a clip or two on the Soup, but I've seen enough that I get the idea.) My question is more on of mindset. You see the show, you get upset.

Yes, the kids are shallow, stuck-up and ungrateful.
Yes, the parents are clueless.

People, that's the point.

Look, I'm a really happy guy. I love my life. I love my partner, I love my job, I love my friends, I love my hobbies. But you'll never see my life as a reality TV show. Because it's unbelievably dull. Because, to an outsider, it's boring beyond belief. You know why? No drama. No arguments. No conflict. The biggest conflict in my last 24 hours was "how to get around the downtown parade so we can get to the show". Real riveting television, huh?

So what's on Sweet 16? Rich people who have all sorts of things you can't afford. And - and this is the point - conflict. Fights. Misunderstandings. Teen angst over getting the wrong color car (and too early in the day).

My confusion is that viewers don't seem to understand that. A vital part of any book, story, movie and TV series is conflict. If there's no conflict to be resolved, there's no story. They watch Sweet 16 and say "Why is she such a bitch?" Because if she wasn't, you'd be watching a TV show about a nice kid getting a nice present, the kid would say "Thanks, you're the best, Mom", and the credits would roll. And you'd never watch the damn show again. I see similar comments about the Real World. "Why is he such an asshole?" Because if he weren't, they'd all be sitting around the table playing Scrabble and sipping Fresca, and you wouldn't bother watching.

Again, I'm not complaining that you're watching the show - watch what you'd like! But engage the brain a little. Do some defensive viewing. Ask some questions. The networks aren't showing shows like "Heroes" (to pick one show) because they feel the need to put up quality programming. They don't feel duty-bound to show good programming. They put it on because people watch it. If people didn't, they wouldn't show it - end of story. And viewed in this fashion, "Heroes" and "Sweet 16" are PRECISELY the same. They're television programs that are produced in the hopes of getting people to watch them, so they can sell some ad time.

Rant over. :)

I once watched 10 minutes of the show and I saw that is what happens when parents have too much money and the kids don't get a good smack once in while.
 
Its funny my mom and I were talking about this show the other day. She said if she was as rich as them parents she would have went all out like they do for all my birthdays, as long as I deserved it of course.
 
one of my friends had their sweet 16 video taped, but it never aired. she's whitney houston's neice, and it didn't air because it wasn't dramatic enough.

i seriously hate this show. i hate when these girls are like "you don't love me! you only spend 2,000,000 on me!" like yeah you're life is soooo hard. i get $200 on my bday lol
 
I watched the show ONCE, and now avoid it like the Black Death(along with MTV usually). It's a bunch of spoiled rich bitches who should have their money taken away for a week. I'll bet half of them would either go insane or kill themselves.
 
>>>I teach, I hate the way it rubs it in poorer kids faces that they don't have or get anything and these wastes of space get it all.

You don't think it shows kids that being rich doesn't necessarily make you a better person?

no- all they see are the material posessions...it'd be nice if they saw them for what they are, but most see it as a way to succeed-if the rich kids act that way...maybe I should, too

oh PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE!!!! that's along the same lines as blaming the entertainment industry for every fucked up thing that goes on in the world today.
 
Which some people still do, and a few of them(not for the really big stuff) have good points on that matter.

Anyway, seeing girls who are in a life of luxury, who are actually real and not made up characters(please note I do not 100% support that statement about the show), tends to make other girls feel jealous, bitter, etc.
 
I'm not blaming the entertainment industry- I'm blaming shitty parents ultimately and obnoxious children, but yes- the industry is a huge influence and not to see that is naive.

well of COURSE it's a huge influence, but i'm pretty sure the majority of the population has enough sense not to emulate stupid behavior they've seen on tv, or heard on the radio, whatever. personally i still believe it all comes down to the parents and how they raise their kids
