I didn’t think about it at the time that I took the survey, but My Super Sweet 16 might be the worst trashy reality show. That and MTV’s other classic, Parental Control.

My Super Sweet Sixteen should be called “If Pro-life Ruled the World” becuase all these spoiled bitchy oblivious brats should have been aborted. It’s astonishing how little they know about life outside the mall and their high school, and it’s fun to watch their horrible parents cater to their every Mariah-Carey-like demand. I can only take it in small doses though (one episode every so many months) because it just gets too insane to know that these kids are the future of the world.

Partenal Control is almost as bad. Many of you probably haven’t seen this show because it seems to come on in some weird afternoon timeslot. In this show, there are a set of parents who hate their daughter or son’s significant other. They audition candidates to replace the creepy boyfriend/girlfriend and then they send their kids out on a date with one of the pre-selected losers. The dates are stupid little activities like painting pottery in the middle of a field or doing something that involves wearing straw cowboy hats. The best part is not the dates, in fact the dates are pretty bland, it’s the former boyfriend/girlfriend yelling at the parents as they watch the date on TV. It’s funny to hear the kids call the parents old or fat, but it’s even better when the parents say all this mean stuff to the kids. Parental Control, a guilty pleasure indeed.
