[url=http://www.vh1.com/shows/dad_camp/series.jhtml]Dad Camp | Show Cast, Episodes, Guides, Trailers, Web Exclusives, Previews | VH1.com[/url] [QUOTE]VH1 DAD CAMP is a docureality show that attempts to transform 6 irresponsible soon-to-be dads into respectable fathers. Each couple at VH1 DAD CAMP has a major dilemma: she's pregnant... but he's not ready or willing to accept the duties of fatherhood. Dealing with guys who drink, smoke, and don't have jobs (but do have anger issues), VH1 Dad Camp takes on one of our nations greatest concerns. In June 2009, father of two Barack Obama issued a call to the nation's dads to "step up" and take responsibility...VH1, 3 Ball Productions, and Dr. Jeff Gardere have answered the call. Dr. Jeff Gardere, Ph.D. is a licensed clinical psychologist, famed relationship expert, and a hard-core therapist who accepts no less than the truth. Over the course of 8 intense episodes, Dr. Jeff will guide these unprepared boys - and their very pregnant girlfriends - through transformational group therapy, activities, and private consultations to get them ready for fatherhood. Dr. Jeff challenges these would be deadbeat dads to man-up to their responsibility and prepare for their future and, more importantly, the future of their unborn child. The men can choose to leave at anytime. But ultimately, it will be the pregnant women -- not Dr. Jeff -- who will decide if these expecting fathers are fit to raise their children. [/QUOTE] Just finished watching the first episode of this and thought it was pretty good. Basically similar to the Tough Love and Dr. Drew series if you like either of those.
All I've seen is a trailer. I know it'll be good because Dr. Gardere is a tough cookie. I watch him on CNN.
This show should be called deadbeat dad's..... reborn.

I'll pass
Sounds like From G to Gents. I may watch, it's doubtful
Just saw this show and I was sad for all of the moms to be. Wished I could just slap some of the dads into reality. I don't know what they where thinking of. I think I'll continue this and see's if it get worse.
They should take some of the 16 & Pregnant dads, they could use a lot of help!
If only this had come along for my Dad haha It does look like a copy of some other shows that "help" out people. I might actually watch it though.
@episode 2 Do they give those people crazy pills or what? Dudes are over-dramatic and freaking out at the end there.
