Kid Nation is an American reality television show hosted by Jonathan Karsh that premiered on the CBS network on September 19, 2007 created by Tom Forman Productions and Endemol USA. The program was originally scheduled to air in mid-2007.

In the show, the children try to create a functioning society in the town, including setting up a government system with minimal adult help and supervision.

On May 14, 2008, CBS officially canceled the series after one season.

In 2020, the series generated a renewed interest with mixed reviews as many YouTube members independently reviewed, discussed, and commented on each of the thirteen original episodes. It has since become a cult TV series. In addition, many former members of the show gave interviews and commentary of their own during that time. All 13 episodes have been available for full viewing, on YouTube, at no charge since 2013.
