This show is bad news and is not a good example for anyone, I wish they would put it after Todlers and Tiaras so that I could go to bed a little earlier.

What Parents Need to Know
About King of the Crown
Parents need to know that this beauty pageant reality series is focused on winning at all costs and judging women based on their looks. Contestants are sometimes mercilessly harrassed to lose weight (even when they're clearly not fat); others end up feeling like they're failures because they can't speak in front of a group. And pageant coach Cyrus Frakes is more than a little pushy about getting what he wants. Expect some bleeped language and revealing bikinis.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about body image. What message do shows like this send on that issue? Is it fair to judge people on how they look?
- How does the way the show is edited contribute to the on-screen drama? Do you think events always took place in exactly the way they're shown? Is "reality TV" always realistic?
- Do you think this show fairly represents the pros and cons of beauty pageants? Is more than one perspective represented?

entertaining
people making fools of themselves. That's what it is. I'm thin enough to be a model, but I'm not stupid I know what it reeaaaaallly takes and I'm not at all costs willing to do it. But It's fun to make fun of those people and unlike "Toddlers and Tiaras" its more age appropriate, cause the women aren't 5 year olds flouncing around the stage pretending their 25.
