Producers plopped the kids, ranging in age from 8 to 15, in the ghost town of Bonanza City, New Mexico, earlier this year, supposedly without adult supervision for 40 days to see if they could fend for themselves and "establish a fully-functioning community"--or if they'd kill the fat kid, divide off into gangs and resort to cannibalism.
...and yes, that's ages 8 to 15. What parents would let their eight-year-old be part of this?
While you chew that one over... meet the lucky forty... after the jump...

You considered Evel Dick a member of this cast. Then you call them future patrons on Mike Boogie's bar. LOL.

Of all the misbegotten, stupid ideas ever considered for a TV show, this has got to be the worst. You KNOW there are going to be adults behind the scenes everywhere, producers screaming, little kids cowed and bullied. CBS better be ready to answer to all the suits that will be filed on behalf of all the kids scarred and put into therapy by this misbegotten, stupid idea of...Oh, did I say that already? Count me out.
Props to your inclusion of ED in the list. You almost slipped that past me.
