Fabian starts a feud with the trail bosses when he airs his dirty laundry, Courtenay delivers a bouncing baby calf named Fred Segal, and Noah shows he's got the cojones for the rustic life. This episode has it all!
Filthy Rich Cattle Drive, a new "City Slickers" inspired reality series proves celebrity offspring really do have it all. Not only do they have famous last names, but they also have their own businesses, degrees from top schools, and most of all their own identities. Filthy Rich Cattle Drive gives… More famous children the opportunity to not only let the world know more about them as well as let the world that they are not just pretty faces with famous family members. Filthy Rich Cattle Drive is a new reality series with a combination of action, drama, and comedy, that will for the first time profile a dynamic group of celebrity kids as they embark on possibly the most challenging and unique experience of their lives, minus all of their creature comforts. Filthy Rich Cattle Drive will show what celebrity kids are really made of by sending them out on a 100 mile cattle drive on a historic Montana cattle ranch. These celebrity slickers will do all of the things that ranchers do under the watchful eye of a well known Cattle Boss. They will truly need brains, braun, and a sense of humor to be a 'survivor' amidst Amazing Race type challenges. See what happens as the participants brave the rugged West, bad weather, moody cattle and sometimes each other in this wild cattle ride experience. Fancy cars, million dollar homes, and designer outfits will be traded in for horses, a ranch, and a pair of cowboy boots. Giddy up.
A compelling real life drama, emotions run high, and the youngest member sums it all up in the first 5 minutes! Mr nasty never gets what's due however. hide show
I happened upon the programme in the early hours, but it grew on me steadily, although there were moments when I thought the conversation about clothes from the girls was tedious. Did they not get the idea that this was about having a go at something they would probably never experience again, not a fashion parade? I thought the undoubted star of the show was Alexander. At just 20 he was the youngest, and not even old enough to buy a drink under US law. He summed the whole thing up on the plane after about 5 minutes with "so far they seem to be conforming to stereotypes, and the conversation seems superficial and materialistic". A shame that he was the only one to stand up to Fabian, but nobody supported him when he did. Were they scared of "Fabe the babe"? I suppose in some ways Alexander, who was always the perfect gentleman and never complained, and George, who also got on with the job, did not make such good TV as Alex the philanderer with a wife back home, and the ever complaining Fabian and the girls. Some of Fabian's supposedly reasonable notions were jaw-droppingly outrageous and you had to laugh at them. Emotions running high can be quite gripping in reality TV and the scenes where the bosses are taunted and insulted made the blood boil and their self control was remarkable. All in all a compelling real life drama!
Okay concept..one particular person ruins the show for me because of his attitude. Im sure everyone can guess who!? hide show
Fabian is the most annoying reality star...term used VERY loosely here... that I have ever seen and Ive watched a lot of reality tv! His attitude towards the staff and the other rich kids is appalling. Wether you have money or not, the way he treats people is dreadful and unacceptable. Threatening to sue, calling the cops at the drop of a hat, claiming diplomatic immunity for wrongdoing, disrespecting everyone, the list goes on and on. His family must be so ashamed that he is representing them on national televison! I know I would be. He makes a complete fool of himself every episode. The rest of the kids are ok and the ranch workers/owners seem like decent people. Overall..not the best that reality tv has to offer and I dont think I could handle wasting another hour of my time watching this.
Not a very good program. Poorly thought out as too what is required of the "kids", and what is to be achieved by what methods. hide show
A very poorly thought out program by the organisers. The "kids" should have all been made to give up their spoiled kids stuff. They should have all been given exactly the same clothing, - shirts, hats, shoes, jackets, jeans so they are all on an equal footing to start. Each team might have different color shirts to give them a sense of unity in that team. If a member of a team does not work as expected, or required, the whole team should be made to some inconvienience. That causes the whole team to force the offender into line by peer pressure. Food is, or should be a reward for good work. Poor work should cause a poorer quality of food such as hot dogs, as against steaks for supper. All cooking, and cleaning, should be done by the "kids" under guidance. If the food is poorly prepared it's up to them to make the require improvements, which is another peer pressure method to get them working together.
I loved Filthy Rich Cattle Drive because they had cute guys there and it was all about getting down and dirty for some rich snobby kids who still lives off their parent's wealth. I would say that this show definitely needs to come back cuz it was so good! They were showering in small tiny stalls and eating cowboy food. There also was so much relationships going on during the show so that was interesting also. Cattle Drive is really awesome.
I went into the first ep cringing and peeking between my fingers, and came out the finale screaming YEE-HAW! hide show
What a cast! Half rich spoiled brats, half people who were nothing more than kids of washed-up has-beens, the dynamic was awesome.
There was romance (well, a guy who tried to hook up with every woman he met), fighting, pranksters, insulting, and the wonderful hate between Fabian Basabe and the Iacovettos. You even had the police showing up! Drama was not at a loss in any episode.
Although I'll never admit it to anyone but you, this was my own personal guilty pleasure of 2005!
