Wow..
Are these girls for real? Oh lets cry becasue mom got the wrong center peices or cause daddy didnt get my car...or because i didnt get my dress. These girls and sometimes boys are a bad example for other girls...and think they are better than other people of stating 'I don't want any losers at my party'. The only one I saw that wasn't a complete outrage was Aaron Reid's Young & Hot party.

Pure, Undiluted Idiocy
I can't really say there's anything wrong with this show, but anyone with a grain of common sense would roll their eyes and skip this show. It's nothing but a bunch of spoiled, rich brats who complain when their $200,000 party "sucks" and they don't get a $200,000 to go with it. *cough* Losers! *cough*

What's TV coming to?
These girls have no value in anything. They complain that they cant get the brand new 2007 Jaguar convertible. They whine when mommy takes away their platinum credit card and cry because their entrance wont be an over the top parade, shutting down a main road. This isnt reality for most of America. Why should we have it on our televisions?

Well...
It's definately a trashy show. It's a horrible example for young girls with spoiled rich brats throwing fits left and right, but sadly, for teenagers, it's FUNNY. I don't think any kid under 13 should be able to watch this show.

SHALLOW
IT SOO SHALLOW. But so halarious. The girls act rediculous. It's really funny, but a lot of girls my age would get the wrong impression and think that is how they should act. DONT LET YOUNGER KIDS (12-14) WATCH THIS (THAT Was from my mom lol.)

The worst show in TV history
This really is the worst show in the history of TV. It's all about spoiled rich kids' parties. There's always some "soap opera" element present in every episode where the teens don't get their way and end up having a huge fit. The parents' behavior isn't as great, either. Some of them are jerks, while others like to spoil their teens with fancy items. In addition, most non-wealthy can't relate to this show at all. Every teen gets her/his way at the end and gets a fancy car too. I can't see how this show appeals to all teens; it's not logical!! Just skip this trash!! (By the way, this show is always rated TV-PG on MTV and MTV2.)

The teens who populate My Super Sweet Sixteen are such brats that it makes my jaw drop. Unlike many of the reviews below me, I don't think that MTV is encouraging their behavior, but subtly poking fun of them. Notice how they always edit the show to make the teens look as spoiled as possible. I personally think that this show works as an interesting social study - it's truly unbelievable how spoiled these teens are, but it's incredibly funny and entertaining to watch them.

Terrible show. not worth watching even for a chuckle.
Why this show even exists is beyond me. However this is MTV, so it's to be expected. I feel, if you think MTV is doing this only for entertainment and not for any form of promotion, that's very naive. MTV is ALL about promotion. It always has been and it always will be. MTV banks off teenagers spending their parents money to mimic somewhat, if not exactly the type of behavior that's seen on this show. All these parents are insane and I can't believe they'd even show their faces with their kids acting like this. It would be one thing if it was about teens having lascivious parties. However they choose the most obnoxious teens they can find, to be laughed at and call it a tv show. Teens easily pick up the bullying-envy behavior from this show. They sit there laughing at the stupidity and craziness of these rich kids, but at the same time want to have what they have. What's the point of showing spoiled little brats throwing tantrums and then getting whatever they want? There's nothing of any value to gain from this show. These kids shouldn't be laughed at or given at type of attention. It's actually really sad that these teens are gonna grow up and probably become very powerful and inflectional in society. Thanks to their enabling parents.

Please tell me this is a fake
This show cannot be for real. If it is not an enormous joke, then someone should be arrested. The episode I saw featured a 14 year old from Miami whose mother bought her a $60 K+ car for her 15th. That cannot be legal. In another scene, she was shown 'rehearsing' for a music video with a boy band that was to perform at the party. The dance step she was performing consisted of some extremely suggestive grinding, out in a public park. The girl was skimpily dressed. The band, as creepy a bunch as I have ever seen hanging around teenage girls, choreographed this 'special birthday' dance move just for her. In addition, the lead singer of the band was wearing a T-shirt with lewd content during one of the talking heads. Extreme mean girl behavior is demonstrated. First, the girl passes out party invitations in a park in front of a big crowd when not all are invited. In another scene, she criticizes her friend for the friend's weight, again in front of a large group. She said more than once, 'I am the princess', and displayed an unbelievable lack of empathy for anyone else. Needless to say, she is spewing a constant torrent of ingratitude to her mother, who stands by bemused, as if there is nothing she can do. In the 15 minutes I saw - could not take any more - no mention was made of the dad, other than the Mom knew that Dad won't like the car the girl has selected. He doesn't want her to drive a convertible. So they need to keep it a secret from him. Really? I sound like a prude in this posting but in reality smoked for a long time, drink alcohol, and swear a lot, so I thought my tolerance was pretty high. Again, this show HAS to be totally fake. I hope that any kid who watches this show is in on the 'joke' and can understand that this behavior is way beyond normal teenage narcissism and borders on sociopathic. The parents cannot possibly be as stupid and clueless as they allow themselves to be portrayed. If they are, it's a miracle they function in civilized society.

terrible show
i ABSOLUTELY HATE this show!!!! i think it sends the wrong message to kids and teens. i really don't know how the boys act, but the girls act so snobby and mean. the teens are stereotyped as being the typical "spoiled, rich kids" and they throw a major tantrum if they don't get their way. i know that sweet sixteens are important, but geez, at least show respect for your parents for spending your life savings on your silly party!!!! i can't sit through one episode of this show without wanting to clobber those girls for acting so disrespectful!!!! parents: DON'T let your kids watch this show if you don't want them turning into complete BRATS!!!!!
