Best movie of this year hands down!

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Being or becoming a parent is definitely not an easy task, especially with our busy schedules. The question is, how do you balance your work life and raise your kids? Thankfully Jo Frost puts it right. She finds middle ground between parents and their kids so there is no power struggles and of course frequent misbehaving. Of course some kids consider Jo to be "mean" when in reality she's being strict and eventually they learn to follow through. I like how she admonishes any irresponsible parent and gets them to get with it. I learned many parenting things from this show, from potty training, time-outs, rewards, homework time and so on. A must watch for any parent!

she helped a family of six that was being ran by a four year old. the mother was completely rude to the older kids, the nanny, and her husband. I was so upset that the nanny did not tell her that her attitude was awful and she should try and see that the problems are 50 50 in a marriage. If i was the nanny i would not have taken that stuff from her, and if i was the husband i would leave that women. She thinks she does nothing wrong and that she is a hero for raising 4 kids on her own when her husband is at work.Grow up most moms are raising there kids while the dad works. If nanny doesn't make the parents see that there attitudes effect the kids then there is no reason that she should be on TV.

The reason that this show exists is really quite simple. You serve the masses the low brow entertainment of watching kids behave badly, and then you double their pleasure by playing into their need for authority as we have some crazy lady come in and reign the wicked little things in. It is Trash TV, plain and simple, so while I stared blankly at the TV for an hour and wasn't bored I also knew that I certainly wasn't being nourished. It also goes without saying that the profession of Supernanny is totally made up. Even more fantasy based is this notion that someone can just come in and fix years worth of parenting problems by making the parents participate in kindergarten like exercises ("Carry this backpack around, it symbolizes the weight Mom carries around everyday.") I also found it to be pretty darn odious that the kid was seen as blameless. In the episode I watched Supernanny must have uttered the phrase ADHD a thousand times in justifying the kids behavior. That is fine, but, to then take all the blame and place it at the feet of the dad, and to say that all this is his fault because after exerting himself all day he is going upstairs and decompressing for too long is the kind of bargain basement theorizing I would expect from a network reality TV show in the year 2007. Maybe Mom should be a working girl on the side, you know, to bring some extra cash in and help Dad out. Or maybe (and this is almost a guarantee) if Dad is not allowed to relax after work at home then he might move his R&R location to the local watering hole.I also couldn't help but feel scorn for the people of this country who watch this week after week. "Freaks and Geeks": one season. "The Comeback": one season. "Supernanny": continuing to thrive well into its second season, as sad as it is this is what we like to watch. I would say that the most important lesson I learned here was never to have kids. Of course I swore off reproducing years ago, but this show made certain that I didn't get an unwelcome visit from my biological ticking clock in a couple years. If I had to pick a positive I guess I would say that at least my friend Supernanny preached a message of positive thinking. The elimination of parents who push negativity towards their children's homework will do wonders for the kids view of homework. In the end, this show kind of sucks. Just another example of fools who are more than happy to air their dirty laundry in the name of getting their ugly mugs on TV. It is sad and disturbing. It is the kind of slop Oprah used to roll around in before she went into bigger goals like encouraging America to read (God Bless Her) and swaying Presidential politics. Supernanny is egotistical, longwinded, and not too bright. . .and so is "Supernanny." I'll watch the show again if I get the promise that the episode involves the kids beating her at every turn, outsmarting her and her elementary tactics, to the point where she is forced to hang up her cape out of frustration.

To the person who posted before me, are we talking about the same show? You sure you don;t have your nanny shows confused? Jo Frost is the best nanny in the whole world! The show is NOIT a job for her, it is NOT! WATCH the show, she loves the kids, she DOES play with them and hugs and kisses them! With the exception of Deb., I don't see ANY of the Nanny 911 nannies doing that! The Nanny 911 nannies are cold and stick it to the parents but I do NOT see them interact too much with the kids. In fact, they have these dumb uniforms that almost makes it impossible! Jo always plays with them, she is ALWAYS there for them! She ADORES them,. I don't see where you get she doesn't.The show displays the steps right on the bottom of the screen, where as Nanny 911 you have to listen or you'll miss it. Supernanny is MUCH more useful and educational! Believe me, SUPERNANNY is better cause JO loves the kids more and that's the truth. Nannying is not a job for her, it's play for her! Supernanny is better!!!
