I keep meaning to, but have missed it.

This is reality TV that actually seems to have merit.

I've watched most all of the releases as they came out.

Scary thought…

I actually sat down and re-watched the entire series one day last year. It was so strange. I cannot imagine having my entire life documented like that. :shock:

A few of the "kids" being followed have dropped out over the years. I believe one died.

Been a few years since I watched, so looking forward to seeing the new edition.
