Saw it last night and I thought it was pretty good. Its just like the Real World except half the roomates are "city" people and half are amish. One of the Amish nearly drowned after he went into the water at the beach for the first time. Seeing the City people be so hipocritical is halarious, like if you saw the begining of the show, the gay guy goes "I hate people who can't accept other for who they are" and few minutes later after he meets the Amish peeps for the first time he starts screaming and saying they need to change if he's to hangout with them. Anyways anyone else see this last night?
NO. Because I live near fricking Amish country and have in-laws who are friends and neighbors with the Amish and I kow how ********ing hypocritical their little act is, so the ********ing UPN affiliate pussed out and didn't show it. Yeah, they need to be protected because they want to be plain. But they were watching movies and talking on their cell phones when they visited my mother-in-law on Saturday.
The "city people" are embarrasing (I mean, you know, as much as you can be on a show like this)... "...you think you're gonna come into this dope house and hang out with cool people and party and hook up?" "I didn't see them as people until they changed into normal clothes". Whatever, the whole thing actually seems a bit scripted to me.
Sounds like someone's miffed that they can't get in on the lucrative local pretzel and shoo-fly pie business...
Ah, hell. My mother-in-law and her husband and making money hand over fist dirving them around Lancaster County.
My rage isn't so much about the show, but about the hypocrisy that the affiliate and some politicians are showing. They say this show is mean because the Amish don't want to get noticed. Yet the Amish economy these days is based on service industries and the rules that the people "protecting" the Amish talk about are not as hard and fast as they say they are. I'm more pissed about the Amish in general than the show.
The Amish chick Miriam is HOT when she's all dolled up. She looked pretty good in her bikini too. What the hell is up with Mose's voice?
At first I thought Mose was a dork. But after a while he turned out to be the most interesting dude on that show. Simply because he's a bit akward but willing to try anything so you see this dorky dude doing crazy things. Both of the Amish chicks were kinda cute when they got into normal clothes. And whats up with that Vegan chick, that bitch is crazy. Even the Amish dudes though she was weird. Cows from outer space?
Personally I think most of the Amish are far better people than the city kids. There's something about Randy that makes me wonder though. Yummy
That's what you've got to like about him, he's willing to try anything. Heck, even after almost drowning he willing to go back into the water. Now that I think of it, Mose's voice reminds me of Moose Heyliger's voice from Band of Brothers, the real Moose that is, not the actor portraying him.
Watched the first one and am currently watching the second one I TiVo'd. Some thoughts. 1. I cannot believe they basically showed Meaghan going down on Kevan. 2. Mose is cool. 3. Randy is a poster child for Amish inbreeding. 4. The city chicks are bitches. 5. I like Nick a hell of a lot more than I though I would.
So which of the Amish folks would most likely not go back to their communities? I vote Miriam. All I have to say is those city kids are a real bunch of a-holes! The Iranian kid looks like Alecko Eskindarians little brother. The one Amish kid with the bad teeth looks like Woody Harrelsons cousin.
I think Miriam (who's hot) and Jonas would be the ones that would stay in the city. Ruth is borderline and I think Randy and Mose would definitely go back.
