Reality TV is Craptacular
A little Saturday browsing brought me to a YouTube video. The video is an exert from a “reality” TV show called “Moment of Truth“. The show is apparently about taking a lie detector test asking you personal questions and you have to answer them on the show where you will find out if your answers are “true” or “false”. If you’re right could win up to $500k.
Check out the video after the jump and my analysis as to why it’s all bullshit.
Watch the video and notice your gut reaction. My gut reaction was “rigged”, your reaction might be “slut” or “poor guy”, and we’d both be right.
Thing is, there are only really two explanations to this video. Either the chick is a gold digger or the show is rigged. Not to mention that neither of the guys that make appearance on the show (her husband, and her ex) look like guys who would have anything to do with a girl like her in real life (poor casting). Then I found this little caveat on the show description page.
At any time, between the polygraph and the televised game, participants can change their answers or walk away from the competition.
So my question is, what kind of person goes on national television to effectively ruin a marriage, all the while knowing exactly the kind of questions she will be asked and the answers she has to say in order to win. I’m not even going to bother analyzing the kind of douche bag it takes to marry somebody like that blonde gold digger. The fact that she loses on a question about whether or not she feels shes a good person is uber lame. Lie detectors detect lies, how can proclaiming that you FEEL that you’re a good person be considered a lie?
I need to catch the credits for this show one day, just to see the names of the writers they have hired.
