Link: Lord of the Flies TV
40 children are to be left to their own devices in an abandoned town in New Mexico, as the producer of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition creates a new reality TV show aping Lord of the Flies. 'Kid Nation' will feature children from 8 to 15 years old. They will not be voted off the show but will vote to reward one of their own number, having the choice between practical rewards - food, etc. - and treats like computer games. The producers presumably hope that the show won't end in murder like Golding's book did, though frankly it all sounds like it's about to go Stanford to me.
