My god, I must say I've never really been compelled to write comments about a TV show, but.....after seeing this hideous shite vomiting out of the C.R.T, how could I not. These young children are some of the most disgusting examples of whats wrong with the world today. Also unfortunately for the population of USA it's this type of behaviour that gives the country such a bad name in basically the rest of the entire world. While dozens of poor little Cambodian children are chasing after anyone with a $1 NOTE to sell dozens of postcards to so they can afford another day of school, these unlicensed brats are whinging about the brand new "SUV" they received. Only cheering up when the even newer "Spider" sports-car arrives 10 minutes later with their diamond-encrusted Rolex. The biggest problem though has got to be with the parents. How can they let their children turn into such pampered little bastards who believe anything and everything is their god-given right. One of the biggest problems though, is that this isn't the only show that makes the yanks look like a bunch of idiots, Laguna Beach, Rich Girls, The Hills + countless other reality TV. Luckily I've been to the US several times and know that this isn't the real world there. Generally everyone I've met were great people, very friendly and not obnoxious fools. And, the amount of poverty and poor people is quite alarming contrary to what you see on these television programmes. But, it looks like it's MTV's mission to make Americans look like the most annoying, dumbest people on the planet!
The subjects of this series are overprivileged girls from well-to-do families who think they are entitled to the party of a lifetime simply because they turn 16. What I noticed right away is that while their parents have given them any material thing they want, the parents failed in a more serious way. They failed to teach these girls about manners and how to treat people, as well as to appreciate what they have. This combination has reared some rude, conceited, bitchy girls who believe the world revolves around them. These girls think we all really care about their parties and that we're jealous of them. Yeah, right. What is sad is that there are some decent kids out there who get good grades in school, treat their parents with respect, and are good people. Their parents would love to give them a party like the ones on this show, but don't have the money or resources. They don't act as if it is their birthright like the girls on this show. It just goes to show that money can buy a lot of things, but it can't buy class.
the show is way too much..MTV needs to make a reality show that is influential...the parents are really to blame. instead of buying outlandish things for these kids, they could be giving this excess money to something or someone that could really use it. are all the Chanel and Louis vuitton bags really necessary? the luxury cars? do these parents actually owe their children this much? half of the children don't even know how to talk to their parents respectfully...i just know that that kind of behavior would never go on in my house. and the dresses that some of these mothers (and FATHERS) let their daughters get away with, may as well put them on the street!!
One look at this show and you know that it's devoid of all intelligence and a completely frustrating, painful waste of time.
All the other reviews have covered how shallow and ridiculous Super Sweet Sixteen is, but I've figured out what the show needs: Follow up episodes. A few years down the line Mtv should document the mental breakdown every single one of these sons and daughters will have when their luck runs out and they realize how pointless their existence is, or when they end up in rehab from their drug/alcohol/eating disorder issue and how they finally grow up from it. That's a show I would watch.

In some cultures reaching 16 is a right of passage. This show is showing you those who are going WAY overboard to impress their friends families with lavish, senseless things. It's all about their world, and their world is one day of excitement and flash.
Don't mistake the traditional "Sweet 16 party" for this. Many of my friends have had Sweet 16 parties as well with food, cakes, friends, DJ's and the renting of the neighborhood hall. I don't think it cost them over a few hundred dollars, and many of them worked and paid for it themselves. Some worked and had people pay at the door. Some parents actually cooked in the kitchen at these halls for us party goers! Fun times for all. But for MTV - boring.
This is reality television at it's finest - excess while the looker-ons are judge and jury. And gee, how many kids are BUGGING their parents RIGHT NOW to throw an over the top Sweet 16 party so that they can GET on MTV?!?!?! Ah-ha!
My Sweet 16 shows us these sad, meaningless, and yes - very lonely children in life who think money will give them the adulation they need. MTV may be trying to get this across: Parents, it's up to you to teach your children that this kinda thing is easily forgotten even after you spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to make your sweetie "Queen" or "King" for a few hours, and they aren't really "entitled" to a thing at 16. At 16, they should be throwing YOU the party.
This is an awful program for the morals, manners, and self-worth of teens and their push-over baby boomer parents...but someone has to show the rest of the world how brain-dead the other one percent really are.
