An excellent documentary about the degradation of human society.

Chances are such that no one will read this post given the number of happy reviews that precede mine. Regardless, I would just like to say that, in my honest opinion, this is by far the worst television show I have ever seen. It isn't the production, but the content that sickens me. As if reality television wasn't bad enough, we are given a show where kids bicker over prom and dates and sunshine and farts. What makes matters worse is that thousands/tens of thousands(choose quantity based on current week's ratings) of people actually care. Go out and live your lives instead of watching spoiled kids ruin their own.

I place this show in the same league of "The Andy Milonakis Show." The only positive comment I have is that I now know to stay away from Laguna Beach when I travel south.
