Title: Operation repo - fake?
Post by bobbythebat1 on Jun 1st, 2012 at 1:16pm
Check this out:

http://www.trutv.com/video/operation-repo/index.html


I watched this TV show on 7 Mate  channel 73 quite a few times.
At the start I thought it was real but certain things happened
which just didn't ring true & sure enough
when I searched the internet many sites are claiming it to be fake.

What do you all think?


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Repo


Quote:
Operation Repo is an American television program that depicts the world of car repossession with a team that portrays fictionalized tales of repossessions from California's San Fernando Valley.[5] Similar to another truTV show, Southern Fried Stings, the series is filmed in a cinema verité style but consists of scripted and dramatized performances by actors.


How can we ever trust "reality" TV shows?

Of course it is fake
If it was real they would be bankrupt due to being sued millions of times

Well - why don't they tell you it's fake at the start of the show?
It's designed to suck people in.

It seemed very fake last night when they tried to repossess a
Harley Davidson motorcycle & a cowgirl lassoed the repossessor
& dragged him behind a horse.
I thought - come on - gimme a break - no one would do that.  ;D

Here is a link for the cast & crew of one Repo show:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1878528/fullcredits#cast



Quote:
IMDbPro.com offers representation listings for over 80,000 individuals, including actors, directors, and producers, as well as company and employee contact details for over 30,000 companies in the entertainment industry.


Episode Cast (in alphabetical order)

Brick Thompson
Cazzey Louis Cereghino
Big Scary Boyfriend / Stunts



You can even click on the actors & get their previous acting jobs & pictures.
What a laugh.
The whole show is bullshit.  ;D


I wonder how many people have been sucked in by this show?

How many other reality TV shows are bullshit?  ;D

It says at the start of the show that these are actors and the scenes you are about to see are BASED on actual events .... in very fine print ... but don't blink or you won't see it .......

But I was sucked in for a few episodes.

How come my thread is not getting more replies?

I did a bit more reseach & I've found out that just about every
TV reality show is fake in some way:

Judge Judy,
Lady to Ladette.
The Batchelor,
Jerry Springer
Operation Repo  etc


Does anyone else want to add to the list?
I think it stinks to suck people in with false programs.
There should be a long disclaimer at the start of every reality show.


They should say -

This show is not reality - it's completely made up false nonsense
& is full of professional actors.

wife swap.

my sister watches that one and its obviously scripted

Ben Elton wrote a couple books about this. There was a book about a big brother house and one about the "idol" crap. Pretty good books. You will never look @ those reality shows the same again if you read them.

SOB

There is hardly anything real now.

People throw the word racist around a lot but that show is racist and just about every other word you can think of. Makes sense the guy is Jewish considering how a lot of them, particularly the rich ones think they are the chosen race.
All he does is attack blacks and steal there money like his ancestors did and still do, the ones that run the real slave trade.
When it comes to show business it seems some of them are granted the opportunity to do nothing for a living, so its safe to assume if he was picked that he has some connections to the ones running the slave trade.

Yes - I wouldn't feel good if I ripped a poor person off
for a price that was way below what something was worth.
Some of those people are desperate - like an abandoned mother
with a child - & he seems to think he's done well to rip her off.
I bet he sleeps well at night too - not a good Jewish advertisment.

Which is why I think he probably thinks he is part of gods chosen people, not many other ways you could justify being such a scum bucket..Not that it actually does, but in his mind.
Fact is the bad Jews have been running the slave trade for a long time and currently billions of people are constant victims of it, suffering day in and day out.

You know - I never liked pawn shops.
They never have good deals .
They give you nearly nothing for things &  then
try to sell them at almost new prices to suckers.

The idea is that they cant take the 'risk' of buying it and not being able to sell it for x amount of days or whatever. If that is so then fair enough for crap items that nobody wants. But they still rip you off on hot ticket items that they know they can sell.

They buy more of the items that are understandably harder to sell, but even then if you are in the business you shouldn't complain about taking the risk your business is based upon.

The fact is that operation repo & pawn stars are both fake shows
& show mistreatment of people:
the former by gorillas turning up to repossess cars
the latter by a rip off Jew pawn shop owner.

I wonder why it attracts such a large audience?

I agree, was just explaining how in reality it would be a bit more realistic.
Not only do they show mistreatment of people, the shows themselves mistreat people because watching them is akin to torture of the brain.
Its the society we live in I guess, but whats the need to enforce it.. Surely entertainment isn't everything. Sure people like this crap, but we have also been pushed to like this crap. Its not hard, especially for media to create social perception and subsequent attraction.

Maybe people like to feel naughty when they view something
which is not politically correct.
People are getting sick of having to be nice to everyone even if that
person really annoys them.

We seem to like watch rip off Jews too.
It's a bit anti-semetic.
