i just don't believe that as Internet savvy as teens are these days, they are getting hoodwinked into having sex with 40 year old fat dudes. No 15 year old girl is out there on the net getting seduced by these losers

we are talking about girls in the age range of 12-15. even though they are internet savvy, theyre still a young teen talking to a grown man, who has bad intentions. you talk about the men being lonely but that can also be said of the girls on the other end. they might be unpopular at school and joe blow in the chatroom gives them attention.

My problem with those shows were that they took advantage of lonely, often slow weirdos and never really protected real teenagers.

the show was there for ratings. i dont believe any of it was to protect people first and foremost. shite, i think some of those people that work for perverted justice are probably creeps themselves that get off to that shite theyre 'pretending' to do

You vastly overestimate society.


The main problem with rebooting this is chatroom use is way down so they'd have to catfish dudes on twitter and facebook which would make the entrapment even more appalling.
