Hello guys! Welcome to my first ever reality TV review. If you know me, you'd know that I'm in love with reality TV. The fact that I'm from Britain, makes it even better. Let's admit British TV is awesome! I love "Jeremy Kyle", "Supersize vs Superskinny", "Wife Swap UK" and recently "World's Strictest Parents". In this article I'll be reviewing one of my favorite episodes, at the moment. But to those of you, who've never heard of "World's Strictest Parents", let me tell you a little about it.
It's fantastic reality T.V show, originally broadcasted in Britain. Two teenagers from England with behavioral problems are sent to a different country for a week. There they meet one of the world's strictest parents, and they have to abide by their rules to change for the better. Examples of countries some of them are sent to are, India, U.S., Lebanon and South Africa.
My favorite ever episode is in fact the New Zealand one. In this episode two Australian teens are sent to Albany, New Zealend. Ryley who is 16 years old, and her mother says she has serious 'attitude problems'. She enjoys drinking, and smoking at just 16 years old. She's also taken many different forms of drugs. As you can tell she's extremely out of control, and is harming herself. Her parents say they are running out of options, and that she's disrespectful and pure selfish. They hope that this trip to New Zealend, will help her change her ways.
The second teenager is Liam who is 17 years old. He's from Melbourne, and describes himself as a typical 'bad boy'. Due to his terrible behavior, he's about to get kicked out of the family house if he doesn't change his ways. He's also taken drugs, just like Ryley. Liam has major anger issues. He knocks things over, attempts to attack people and is just out of control. He's abusive, and his mom says she's a little scared of him due to his anger. This is Liam's last chance, to fix his ways before he's kicked out of the family home.
Both teenagers are staying in Albany, New Zealand, with the Godfrey family. The mom is called Yvonne, she's very strict and her and the dad have 30 years of child raising experience. She isn't the woman you want to mess with, she's firm and dedicates her life to helping difficult teenagers.
As soon as these hooligans, arrive in New Zealand, they already to try to cause problems. They hide in the garden and start to smoke a cigarette when one of the rules clearly stated that they weren't allowed to. However as soon as they re-enter the house, they are left with a surprise. Yvonne brings in a drug dog to inspect the house to make sure the teens are clean.
Throughout the whole stay, the teens try to cause problems by attempting to run away and refusing to abide by the rules. So if you want to find out whether or not the experience changed either of them, go ahead and watch the episode.
I liked this episode the most out of all, because it's very hooking. Although the attitude of the teens make me angry, it's still a very interesting episode. I would love there to be a series where American teens get sent to Britain. That'll be a laugh wouldn't it? Overall "World's Strictest Parents" is by far my favorite series to watch, let me know what episode is your favorite.
