Guilty Pleasure
My guilty please is that I enjoy the television show, "Teen Mom." I began watching it when it was still "16 and Pregnant" and kept following as it morphed into "Teen Mom" For some reason I was intrigued by the lives of these four girls and their children. It was interesting to see how they were treated when they were pregnant and after they had their children. The show is centered around four girls, Caitlyn, Maci, Farrah, and Amber. I think I enjoy it because they are just average teenagers who are forced to be adults. I can in no way relate to this, but never the less it is interesting. I felt like after watching enough episodes I could begin to predict what they would do, and I could predict what others were going to do to them. They almost always had problems with their boyfriends, but they still stayed with them for the betterment of their child's life. I would have to say I enjoy watching the segments about Maci the best because she seemed to have the most stable life, and seemed in my opinion to be the best fit to raise a child. I also liked the fact that she had a southern accent. My least favorite is Amber. She is by far the least capable of raising a child because of her random burst of violence. I was always intrigued however by her situation because her boyfriend Gary was a pretty good father, and was incredibly nice to her even though she was vicious to him. I would describe this as a "guilty pleasure" because this show is generally a show that girls watch. I told only a handful of my friends that I watch it because I find it strange that I enjoy it. I never got into the other episodes of "16 and Pregnant." I have a sort of connection with the girls on the original shows, and I am not about to desert that. The third season just finished up, and I am eagerly awaiting season four next summer.
