So I'm watching this show on MTV Canada called Parental Control. Basically the concept is the parents select an alternate boyfriend/girlfriend for their child to go out with because their own child's significant other is a loser.
Now let me say that I realize this show is fake. It couldn't possibly be real. Somehow I don't think every set of parents would sit there on the couch and allow the boyfriend to tell them to "shut their fucking pie holes."
That being said, I'm not sure who the biggest losers are. The parents are just as bad as the kids. You can tell these are all Southern California parents but, jeez louise, they should be sterilized to keep them from pro-creating. I've never seen so many adults in such desperate need of growing up. It's sad because their children will suffer for it.
Anyhoo, this show is only tolerable for brief periods of time. But the impression it gives you is that American parents and their children are all fucking losers.
