I feel bittersweet about them not going back home. I wish them all a bright future

This was a HUGE hit for UPN. I would expect it to be repeated - probably the whole season followed by a reunion special. Additional info found at the following website - I included info I found the most interesting.: http://tv.zap2it.com/tveditorial/tve_main/1%2C1002%2C271|90725|1|%2C00.html According to both Mose and Kroll, though, none of the housemates got rich from doing "Amish in the City." "My contract said $10,000," Mose says, "non-negotiable. I knew better than to ask for more." "It was to cover their rent and expenses," Kroll says, "as a stipend, so people can afford to do this show. In the series, Jonas took the test to get his GED high-school equivalency exam, something Mose already did. But he wants more. "For what the Amish are doing," Mose says, "they don't need higher education to farm. But if you're going to try to survive in the outside world, you'd better get higher education. I aim one day to do that, when I can afford a college education." Kroll is mulling an idea for another TV project involving Mose. UPN has yet to announce a second season of the show, and while Kroll says there is some talk of doing a reunion special (some housemates keep in touch, evidenced by Mose receiving a cellphone call from "city kid" Kevan during lunch), one has not yet been ordered.

Thank you SO much for the information Willwillbee! I would love to see another show with Mose and hear what the others are up to. Thank you again!

Thanks to all gave a synopsis of episodes as I missed the last two. I really enjoyed this show and wished I had caught the end. I agree that it would be great to know what happens to them.

Ditto for me about missing the last show--thanks for the summary here!!! I had noticed the week before that the final episode would be on Tuesday but when it came to Tuesday I was only focused on BB and AR finals.

Hey, does anyone happen to have the last 2 episodes on tape? I've realized that I missed them and I really want to know what happens in the end (i.e. who decides to go back to the Amish life and who doesn't). I know I could read a summary but I'd love to actually see the shows! If anyone does have these can you please send me an email letting me know?! My email address is in my profile! Thanks!

Hi everyone! I just wanted to let you know that some UPN stations are showing the finale again. Hopefully, they all are because I know a lot of us missed it. Here in the Louisville, Ky area, they are showing it at 11pm tonight for anyone here that lives in this area. :-)

Read in a mag my mom gave me, think it was US, and article with Mose. Talked like he was more than likely not to go back. That really surpises me. And that he is #9 out of 13 kids and is living in Missouri

I'm not surprised that Mose didn't go back. He's got the mind of an inventor... very creative... and a very warm personality. I got from him that the Amish life was a bit to austere and ridgid and made him feel isolated and alone. I think he would love to live like the mennonite family...he seemed so happy and relaxed...
