Critical Mass: 'Kid Nation' Might Be More Terrifying Than 'Lord Of The Flies'

Critical Mass: 'Kid Nation' Might Be More Terrifying Than 'Lord Of The Flies'

Variety:
Separate from any controversy about child-labor laws or Draconian legal waivers, parts of the show are a bit creepy. In the debut, the kids are told that they can decide to "give up" and leave at the town halls (tribal councils?), a phrase loaded with "You don't want to be a quitter, do you?" peer pressure. And while there's nothing new about the kid who misses his parents and cries a lot at summer camp, there is something intrusive about having a camera shoved into that kid's face.
