    I’m not trying to say it isn’t awful. I’m trying to say that they would have made it look that awful if they could have.

      Oh, I gotcha now. Yes, I guess it’s really just too clean, and the people too sane, which is a result of it being thrown together in under a week, on a limited budget.

      Edit: also because it’s a G rated TV show.

        Also the show is worse in some ways. They were forced into camps that they could not leave, with no medical care, limited food, no jobs/etc.

        That would definitely be some peoples preference for the current homeless, forcing undesirables into internment camps instead of dealing with the issue systemically, but that was part of the horror of the “show” setup.
