5月9日晚,第一次播出的大型观察类真人秀"来吧孩子"开播,女人生孩子的过程被全程记录.节目播出后,有人大呼母爱伟大,也有观众表示心脏受不了.
China's first live television airing of the birth of a child has sparked intense criticism online. The show, called Laiba Haizi, or "Come On, Babies," was produced by Shenzhen Television and broadcast women in labor at a Hospital at Fudan University in Shanghai.
The first episode on Friday night featured three women in labor, with one screaming and pulling her hair as she gave birth. Another scene showed a baby being held up to cameras after it was born during a c-section surgery.
Some viewers took to the internet to express their horror.
One netizen wrote on her micro blog that it was terrifying to see a mother cut open during the C-section.
Others debated whether it is appropriate to expose people's private moments in front of a camera, while others applauded the show for recording the moment a woman becomes a mother.
The show became one of the hottest topics on Sina Weibo, the Chinese iteration of Twitter, with more than 195.5 million posts discussing the show over the weekend.
