Not to mention a trained audience, especially during the teen shows. The parent, almost *always* a mother, comes on and basically says 'my kid is out of control because I suck as a parent so I have to come on NATIONAL TV to to solve my problems'. Then the teen comes out; if it's a guy, they come out in street-gansta clothes; if it's a girl, she's dressed as a slut. What always gets me is the teens come on going all 'shut up! you don't know what's it like!' and the host acts as dumb as JR during a squash match. The host tells the kids they need to change, but doesn't say anything that the kids don't already know. And, by the end of the show, the kids are turned into bawling bitches.
