Honey, We're Killing the Kids growth?

Not so much muscle growth, but...

are there any clips of the "after" growths from this TLC show? At the end, the nutritionist shows the kids growing from their present age to how they'd look at 40 if they followed all of her rules. It's some great, convincing age progression, and very professional morphs. For some reason, I can't find clips of these anywhere!

Alll I've found is this Flash ad.

Jeez! You'd think clips would be all over places like Male_AP or YouTube. I just have a VHS tape of a few episodes and no way of putting them up.

Here are a couple of clips on YouTube. Now I'm wondering how these kids would look like if the AP software was set to "Hunky" instead of "Chunky".

Well, that's what I'm saying. At the beginning, they grow up to look like mass murdererers, but at the end of the show she ages them again to what they COULD look like, and it's a much better image, let me tell you

*sighs heavily* If only it was that easy huh. I'd turn my dial to "How'z it goin, hot stuff?"

Today@NBC has a "Honey" segment online featuring two young boys.

Personally I don't care much for the show. I watched a few of the first season episodes and I agree with the sentiment that the first age progressions make the kids look like oversized thugs. Overall the first age progressions they do are so far off the mark it's insane. You'll notice that they almost always add glasses or place odd facial hair/puffy hair/no hair as well as poor looking skin. It's a scare tactic and I understand that, but to promote it as a very likely future is sad.

The host does make a point to say in the interview that the progressions are there to make an "impression".

Now, if they made an actual effort to make an as accurate representation of what they'd look like pre and post the show I'd be more likely to watch it as many of the health tips are valid and seeing them implemented is always interesting but at the same time they seem to play off the whole image issue.

All in all the morphs are interesting to watch, but a tad on the silly side.

I hate the beginning, overdramatic morphs. I do like the APs at the end though, where the host shows how they will look if they stick to healthy eating and shows the boys maturing into healthy, attractive men. The show's been cancelled, so I'll have to look for my AP in other places!

Found more clips on YouTube. Couple of 'em were already in the NBC one.
