  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

There is a slim chance it will come back but right now its listed as "fate to be determined". The ratings just continued to fall through out.
Then there is this info:

"Tom Forman, the executive producer, believes the program was hurt by the early controversy. “It’s not the kind of buzz you want to launch with,”.
CBS hasn’t said whether Wednesday’s “Kid Nation” was the season finale or the series finale. There is a chance — perhaps just a slim chance — that the series could return for a second season."
"But any plans for a second season “could be complicated by a new wrinkle: CBS cannot be sure it will be able to find a state whose laws will accommodate the show’s format.”

"What!? You mean in the 21st century you can’t find a state that allows parents to sell their offspring to unethical TV producers? What is the world coming to!"

"Glad to see this stupid show go. Preying on kid’s fears and insecurities for ratings is as low as it gets. Concerns were raised in the beginning for a reason and the poor ratings demonstrated that thankfully (sometimes) the viewing public does know where to draw the line with offensive television."
