I think this show is a fake. Where do they live in New York? Where do they get the money. The amish have a thing they call springsomething. I can't remember the last word of that. I'm also surprised at the foul language. This program is just like what it is "A Show" to get big ratings. Another thing is where do you find these people..A stupid program and now the 4 of them are making big bucks knocking their religion.

Okay, I am amish. Some of you might doubt that being that I am writing this review and watched the show, but in all reality, some of us are more involved in tech than others. As for the show, it has some true points....but for the most part, it is fake and not showing what the Amish are all about. It is quite obvious that they have an attitude issue that should be addressed before they try and describe the Amish. Just because they were born and raised Amish does not mean they can speak for the Amish.

First off, I was kind of surprised at the language of these kids. I mean, I doubt they were raised to have every other moral value in the book, except their foul language. I doubt their parents talk like that, so where'd they get it from? I suspect they've been out of there community for longer than it seems. Also, the beasteality comment this week from one of the guys took it over the top. I think these kids are just trying to make the Amish look really bad. Mostly fake, I think..... I HOPE!
