Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

Manthast Absolutely amazing

Kodie Bird True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

roseannepickering This has got to be the worst show I've ever been witness to. I think mothers who allow their children (even if their child begs them) to compete in pageants should have their kids taken away from them by social services. Not a single mother talks to their child about being a gracious winner or a good loser. The trash talk and bad mouthing these women do about each other as well as some other person's child is setting a horrible example for their kids. Not a single mother stresses the importance of being a good person, being kind and caring and treating everyone with dignity and respect.Not one person on this show emphasizes inner beauty. And I have to say, if my child EVER sassed me the way some of these kids sass their parents or if my child threwfits and smacked me or threw stuff at me--there isn't a reason good enough for a child to get away with that. I'd be taking my child out to the wood shed and tan their backside for them. I know that no child is perfectly behaved all the time, they get tired and cranky. However, they wouldn't be nearly as tired and cranky if you weren't hauling them all over the place and making them perform like little monkeys. I know beauty pageants are supposed to be to help fund a child to attend college--to teach them poise and grace but unfortunately when most of the money these kids earn doesn't seem to be going into savings for anything. Most of the money seems to go for travel, meals, entry fees and costumes so that they can be entered in more pageants.

moldwarrior In the wake of their high ratings of Jon and Kate Plus Eight TLC decided to start airing shows for people to respond towards the show. J&K had Kate a borderline psychopath who wanted fame, fortune and a body to die for and Jon wanted a quiet life. T&T has moms whoring their children so they can feel accomplished for what they have done.TLC was smart enough to never speak a word of this show since they didn't confirm or deny they followed these practices. Smart but the show has become lamb basted for abusive parenting which in todays society is a huge no no.The children are "forced" (I say that in quotations due to some kids being dumb enough to accept the prodding and poking of uncut finger nails) to wear heavy makeup the makes the children as fake Sarah Jessica Parker looking sexy. They also end up parading in small clothes that unfortunately make them look like mini call girls.However one can not put all the blame on the moms. The dads seem to resist it until his precious is crying on her stomach because she wants to play or the mom verbally threatens him with divorce (it has happened). Dad of course by the ends turns to the camera and says "Well if she likes it she can do it".Sadly though this is not the worst it gets in real life children have been kidnapped and murdered due to these types of abuse. In any event this show is awful for it's content and it's message.

pingpongtable The show content is awful. Moms, and sometimes dads, dressing up their little girls in revealing outfits, covering them in make up, and throwing them on stage to dance around for some judges to tell them what they're worth based on looks and how well they're mom coached them. Some mom even physically force their child to wear fake teeth and get fake plastic nails put on. The moms constantly preach to the cameras about how if their little girl said they don't want to do pageants anymore, they would stop the pageants all together. Bull. Complete and total bull. I couldn't even begin to count the times the girls have specifically said to their moms "I don't want to do the pageants." But do moms listen? Nope. They want to either relive their childhood or live a childhood they think they would have wanted as a child, through their child. As for glitz, oh dear lord. These worse thing in the world for these girls, in my opinion. It teaches the little girls that they'll only get things in life if they can afford things like fake teeth, hair pieces, and mountains of makeup. A direct quote from Paisley's brother. This pretty much sums up glitz. "When I see Paisley all glitzed up, it's like, not even Paisley anymore." These girls aren't even little girls anymore. They're dolls. And it's disgusting.However, the show as a show is amazing. TLC really does a good job of showing the work that is put into pageants and how excited some of the girls actually are. It also does show people, like the dads married to the crazed pageant moms, that don't approve of the pageants. It shows all the different opinions of everyone involved on every side of pageants/anti pageants.As a girl who wants to be a mother of a little girl, this show makes me so angry I've actually thrown up at one point. As a lover of reality shows, it's very well done and informative.Like I said. Please don't base ratings on content and whether you approve of it. Please base them on how well the show conveys that content. This is a good show, it just has horrible people in it.

TwinIrish I don't know how this show could even use the word beauty. It should use the word "artificial". The children do not even look like themselves after being subjected to false finger nails, wigs, eyelashes, tans, hair extensions, and over the top makeup. Have I left anything out? Painting 20 year old faces on children is almost obscene. I saw one mother even put false toe nails on her daughter. I can't help remembering one mother who prayed with her two little girls, both contestants, before their pageant that they would bring home a crown. She mentioned bringing home a crown twice during her so-called prayer. I, too, believe that the parents love crowing to family and friends when their children win something. Most of the children get so tired. The show got truly stupid after some parents did all the expressions, movements and prancing around for their children to copy. They did everything except get up on the stage themselves. Apparently the pageant people don't care what goes on as long as they get their entrance fees.
