 | Breakfast Club Comes to Life!posted by RF Club, Group AdministratorMonday, July 26th 2010 @ 5:04 PM (not yet rated) |
It is time to admit that I am a little older, yes, I must admit to being in my *cough* *cough*, Forties. Now, that the secret is out (LOL) I am going to inform you that I love the movie 'Breakfast Club'!! It seems that it has become a cult favorite and even the young generation knows the movie!! Therefore, my referring to it, hopefully, does not lose or confuse to many readers???
Basically, the 'Breakfast Club' is about "Five high school students, all different stereotypes, meet in detention, where they pour their hearts out to each other, and discover how they have a lot more in common than they thought."( Description courtesy IMDb Video)
Well, MTV has created a Reality Show that brings 'Breakfast Club' to Life!!! Now, think about that for a moment!!! The idea/moral/hopes behind Breakfast Club is breaking down stereotypes, cliques and barriers in High School. Imagine, if WE could actually succeed?? Just Imagine our generation doing that for OUR CHILDREN!! WOW!!!
You have to watch 'IF YOU REALLY KNEW ME'!!! It is an inspiring Reality Show. It makes YOU FEEL like, "Yes! Yes, we can change"
It Airs Tuesday on MTV at 11:00pm Eastern Standard Time! But, MTV runs the show over and over again. Check your local listings. In addition, you can watch full episodes of MTV
Here is the Description courtesy MTV:
In high school, there are the students who rule the school -- like jocks, cheerleaders, and the popular kids -- and the ones who get picked on -- like nerds, emos, and outcasts. That's just high school, right? But what if you could change that?
Like a reality version of The Breakfast Club, each episode of If You Really Knew Me takes place at a different high school, and follows five students from different cliques as they go through the life-changing experience of Challenge Day, a one-day program that breaks down the walls between cliques, and completely changes the way students view their school and each other. Watch the amazing transformation each week as new students open up for the first time and try to change by revealing who they really are, behind the cliques and the labels. Is it possible to change your life, and maybe even your high school, in one day? These students are going to find out... on If You Really Knew Me.
