The recent TV series "Amish in the City", I've seen a couple episodes of. It's not as exploitative as one might think. "Let's tempt the Amish to sin and vice and swear and whatever..." no, that's not the point.
Moreso, lets make the "City wise kids" look like dorks, clods, self centered idiots. (though some have a few shining moments and are better than others). Its actually a good moral testing on "How do we get along if we know nothing about each other?" sort of deal.
