This is one of only a few reality television programs in Taiwan where children are truly 'in charge.' Each season features a new set of 10 kids selected from across the country who learn through each un-hosted episode to work as a team and accomplish a variety of challenging assignments. The children play some games related to Hakka culture and also do some farm work at the chicken farm.
I like the story line of this show because it doesn't feel scripted and seems very realistic. Kid-driven reality shows are more of an unknown; you don't know what the children are going to do or how they're going to react to things. The kids are not initially comfortable with the farm work and have their own ideas about what they want to do, but in the end they work their way through the tasks. The children are responsible and caring -- they encourage each other instead of blame each other. That's shows good character modeling. Not only that, but I enjoyed one of the kids' description of the radish, even though he doesn't like the touch or the taste. This particular episode also gives close-up of the different chickens in addition to shots of the kids, which is sort of fun. My favorite child is Yen-feng, because she's particularly cute and very dramatic when she speaks. The location is very authentic. It's not like it was created just to film an episode of a reality show, and the kids do indeed come real farm to experience doing farm work. The music is childlike and upbeat.
I give Let's Go 48 Hours - It's Okay To Be Dirty For A Day 4.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 5 to 12, plus adults. By Xiangxi K., KIDS FIRST!
