Hannah Montana
Hannah Montana is the title character of a popular TV show which debuted on the Disney Channel in March of 2006. Hannah is a famous pop music star who secretly leads a "normal" life as a mildly nerdy Malibu teenager named Miley Stewart, who suffers all the usual complications that come with hiding a famous alter ego.

The show created a popular confusion of Hannah Montana with Miley Cyrus, the actress who plays her. Hannah's father and manager, a former country music star, was played by Cyrus's real-life father and manager, and former country music star, Billy Ray Cyrus. Mitchel Musso and Emily Osment star as the friends of Miley who know her big secret and Jason Earles stars as Miley's brother. The show was an immediate hit and led to a nationwide "Hannah Montana" music tour in 2007, with Miley Cyrus performing as Hannah. The album Hannah Montana was released in 2006, with Hannah Montana 2: Meet Miley Cyrus following in 2007.

Kid Nation
Kid Nation was an American reality tv show hosted by Jonathan Karsh. Forty over-achieving kids are given free reign to create their own society offering from CBS network. Forty kids are given forty days free of adult supervision in an abandoned New Mexico town named Bonanza City to build a new world. In the show, the children try to create a functioning society in the town, including setting up a government system. At the end of every episode, the kids have a town meeting. At the meeting the kids award one child a gold star worth $20,000. The program was originally scheduled to air in the summer of 2007.

The show stresses the difficulty in creating a viable society. While each child received $5,000 for their involvement, Gold Stars valued at $20,000 and $50,000 were awarded to select outstanding participants as decided by the elected Town Council. The town consists of four districts, and each one have identity based on color. The red, blue, green and yellow district.

In each episode, the four town districts compete in a Showdown to determine their place in Bonanza. The first place finishers are awarded Upper-Class and are paid $1.00 in Buffalo nickels each, second place earns Merchant and $0.50 each, third place become the cooks, and are paid $0.25 for their work, while the last place finishers become the Laborers, and earn $0.10. If all of the districts complete the task within a given amount of time, the whole town wins a bonus prize, which always consisted of a choice between a fun, entertaining item (such as pizzas and a mini-golf course); or a vital, utilitarian item (like a microwave oven and religious books), with the decision on what prize to take made by the Town Council. Kid Nation is different on other reality tv show since no one is voted out and the host (Jonathan) asks any of the children if they would like to leave.
