''Parental Control'' is a heavily scripted "pseudo-reality" program produced by MTV. The two directors, Brendon Carter〔(Brendon Carter )〕 and Bruce Klassen,〔(Bruce Klassen )〕 have also created other MTV shows. In Asia, this show was aired on Channel V in the period of 2007-2009. ==Plot== The version which aired February 2006, differs from its premiere on MTV's Spring Break 2005 in March. A girl was to interview five boys, and after a set of about five questions for each person or an activity of some sort, the father will eliminate one of the contestants. This continues until one contestant remained.〔()〕 In the latest version, parents are unhappy with their child's current boyfriend or girlfriend. The parents interview and select prospective partners who vie for the affections of their child. Afterwards, their child goes on a date with the two selections that each parent chose. The child then has to decide whether to keep their current relationship, stay single, or chose one of the new prospects.〔 During each date, the parents and the current partner watch and comment, often antagonistically, as the date unfolds on television. When the dates are finished, the child selects their new partner from amongst the competitors and current partner. First, one of the three is picked to leave before the other two. Then the child chooses between the two remaining potential partners. The whole process often results in unpleasant behavior from the two who were eliminated. Usually, the current boyfriend/girlfriend is selected. In some occasions, the child chooses to stay single, and eliminates the current significant other and the dates that his or her parents orchestrated.〔http://www.mtv.com〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Parental Control」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
