This show isn't really my thing, but I don't see anything wrong with it - young maori guys with ambition, trying to get ahead (unlike their local dole bludging counterparts), enjoying being young, and still trying to hold onto their roots. Back in the 70s when a whole lot of young maori men got jobs overseas in the oilfield to make money and provide a great lifestyle for their families, they were considered sell-outs. Now they have retired and brought their money home, everyone wants a piece of them. Same will go for these guys in 10-20 years - we label them as fakes now, but will be quick to change our tune when they bring their money back here to buy property for their families. P.S. The lingo is nothing new, aunty / neff / unc have been used that way by Mozzies for years.
