It’s a feel-good program that highlights not only the efforts of students from all walks of life (wealthy, impoverished, liberal, conservative) but also the dedicated teachers doing their best to lead them.

Citizen Nation is the antidote to every show you’ve seen about teens lately. These teens don’t care about internet fame; they care about restoring dialogue to the discourse in this country, and it’ll be fun to see them all getting ready for and competing in We The People.

The intent of the series more often seems to be storytelling, about very likable teens with a mix of backstories. .... Engaging stuff, which probably proved irresistible to the filmmakers. But which is of uncertain relevance to the central story. At the same time, an advantage of constructing “Citizen Nation” in four parts is the opportunity to include more characters.
