A sketch group called Landline apparently had enough of the multiple teenage pregnancy shows on MTV and decided to do something about it.
In an effort to show the complete asininity of the shows 16 and Pregnant (16 & Pregnant, Season 1, $24.95 from Amazon) and Teen Mom (Teen Mom: Season 1, $29.95 from Amazon), a spin-off of the popular series 16 And Well-Adjusted was created. [Via Huffington Post]
Mind you, this show is not going to be a real series. It is only a spoof.
Watching this just made me realize how crazy it is how much fame and attention these teen mothers are getting.
Tell me, Lovelies: Did this sketch change your mind about the shows 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom?

I do wish they’d get less ghetto/white trash teenage failures in the show… the last seasons have been like Jerry Springer. I still love it.

I can’t deal with not dealing with anything! Bahahahaha
To be honest, I watch the shows like crazy, but that’s because they’re somewhat interesting. Sure, some of them are real snooze tests, but I guess it’s just the curiosity in me that makes me want to watch teenagers trying to be parents. That way I can sit there and think to myself, “Man, my life really isn’t that bad. I’m gonna go buy some Gushers!”

Why would I waste my time watching a fake when there are always marathons on of the real thing. lame.
guest
That’s great!
guest
I watch shows like these because I was a well adjusted teen with a rather boring life.
guest
It didn’t change my mind; it reinforced my opinion that the real shows are stupid. And that spoof is hilarious. I’d watch if they made it a real show! haha
guest
@betterdesigned@xanga - I agree. I’d watch it!
guest
can they make this a real show?

“I can’t deal with like not dealing with stuff!” That was funny, but its honestly ridiculous how they have so may shows about teens getting pregnant. I couldn’t imagine being……16 And Pregnant
guest
bahahahahaha so freaking hilarious. Great spoof. If anything, this just reaffirmed my belief that those shows are moronic.
guest
Lol (:

The sad thing is, i would post this on my FB, if over half the people on there WERENT young parents.
guest
oh wow
guest
This made me laugh so hard. That’s what it is coming down to now a days.
guest
I’d totally watch it!
guest
That was hilarious. xD.
I watch 16 and pregnant, but i agree there are way too many shows about teen pregnancy on right now. I love watching them, but sometimes i wonder how it’s influencing teens. It sometimes makes me want more kids, but i’m 21 and already have a son, which is a little different. So who knows how it makes younger kids feel.
guest
why not?? this is america! choice is totally up to viewers.
guest
Hahahahha oh my word was this hilarious.
guest
There are far too many shows that have to deal with teen pregnancy; whether their “real life” or scripted into a new t.v. drama. But, I still have to say I find the show interesting. It does somewhat give off the idea that it’s glamourous, but at the same time, it did scare me into not wanting to become pregnant while being young and still in school (not that I had wanted it to begin with, but it made me less naive.)..
This should definitely be a real show, though.

Teen Mom is the only TV show I watch routinely besides the nightly news and I manage to get it without cable. Admit it: all TV is trash except for, like, the McLaughlin Group…It’s really no worse than any other show on TV.
Obviously the spoof is hilarious though haha.

* I was 17 and a HS senior when the show came on and it in no way made me want kids. That would be stupid. For those that were asking.
guest
LOVE it.
guest
I’m sick of all the negativity on mtv with shows like these. How about we show the teen world positivity by making a show about a tennage girl who’s not perfect, but doesn’t make endless mistakes and isn’t always after the hottest guy in school?
guest
honestly, i love the shows teen mom and 16 and pregnant and i’ve been watching since they started. if you really watch the shows, the girls aren’t making it cool, they show how hard it is to have kids and what it’s really like to have kids that young. i had my first at 17 and let me tell you its not cool, not a walk in the park. if you really watch the shows, all the girls go thru really hard decisions and really hard times. granted alot of them are getting their lives together but they had some really hard times with having kids so young. i think it’s a good lesson for kids who think it’s okay to have kids so young. it really opened my lil sisters eyes watching the show cause she thought it was so easy but watching the show and my experiance she changed her mind on wanting a kid even tho she’s only 17!
guest
I lol’ed. I’ve had a lot of friends (21+ yrs old) who acted like those teen moms, so I didn’t need to go through the torment all over again.
