Made-for-MTV Arabs romp across America

The New York Times reports on a reality TV show being broadcast in the Middle East, "On the Road in America," which follows a group of young, attractive Arabs as they travel across the United States and learn about us. Looks like fun. The NYT story has an amazing clip of a young Palestinian production assistant talking about Israel with an Israeli cameraman. Here is the show's official teaser clip. Let's hope the program gets an American distributor because if there's one thing U.S. kids need -- okay, two things -- it is a) one more reality TV show, and b) one that shows us how young people from other parts of the world are not too different than ourselves.
