Is Kid Nation a "real" reality show or is it scripted?

It just dosn't seem like they can go that long with the supplies they have.

there is no way they could go that long without a shower or brushing their teeth. also that man that does the rewards and town hall meetings comes out of knowere several times during the show. also are they realy in bonanza city or on a set because it seams odd that the weather changes so rapedly.

It's not 100% real or 100% scripted. You can't make 40 kids say exactly what u want them to say on a show like this but, they can edit like crazy to make the viewers see what they want them to see. Also, those little "confession" things..they ask questions they know will get a reation out of certain kids and then edit it into a "mini confession"...ya know when their name and age is posted at the bottom of the screen and they are giving their "views" on a subject.

Kid Nation was a real reality show. They were given enough supplies to get through the entire time for 40 kids. Several of the children couldn't stick it out tho, so it wound up being 37.

They had reward challenges that gave them the opportunity to gain more supplies or other rewards. Once they learned to work together, they managed to get by.

It's like every other reality show..... so of course it's scripted

Every reality show is scripted..... everything..

i agree with ganja
it's a bit of both
my daughter loved thae show and wants to go it

There are people there who supply the things they need.....but it's as real as is possible.

We know there are camera and production people there.
