Reality TV may not be real ?!!?
 
David Hester, one of the players on Storage Wars, has outed A&E. He claims they salt the storage units with goodies to make the show more interesting.

'Storage Wars' star David Hester sues A&E, claiming show is rigged - NY Daily News




Didn't A&E get into some trouble a few years ago over some house flipping show?

He's a royal douche sleeze and will say and do anything for a buck.
They canned him for being a pain in the arse and he immediately started yelling "I'll sue you".
I see his his stupid-arsed yuuup truck all the time, good thing I aint got no rocks.

Herer's the deal:
they film them folks going through hunnerds of storage lockers but most turn out to be trash and worthless. They usually don't make it onto the show. Once in a while they find something worth something and THAT get's on the show.


BTW, Brandi's boyfriend used to be a meth head and did time for posession and distribution, along with DUI etc.
Looks like he's got his stuff together now, 'cept for that outlaw clothing line he's always pedalling.
Even makes his workers wear it. Evidenty there are plenty of wanna-be's out there.

She's a hottie IMO.
There are inter-web rumors that she used to be a stripper in the OC, can't say cause I never saw her. Kinda doubt it but she has that 'attitude".
Their store is only a few miles from the house. Never been in there but drove by a bunch.

Barry is a rich dude, made a fortune in the produce bidness, he's only on the show cause the producer asked him to provide some comedic relief.

Darrell isn't as stupid as he acts. He couldn't be. It isn't possible.

They rent antiques and stuff from prophouses here in LA all the time. Heck, I even rented them my pair of Borge Mogensen Spanish Chairs once, but never saw them on the show. They look like this....

A reality program that isn't real? Yeah, right. Next you'll try to tell us that the internets lie.

I've always suspected that some of those rare/unusual storage unit finds were planted.

Noooooooope!

Every 'reality' show on Tru TV is fake by design. They're all 're-enactments'. Still cheaper than hiring a screenwriter.

ckelly78z 12-11-2012 04:45 PM

It's for entertainment purposes, so why be surprised ?

What about that new show "Amish Mafia" If the veiwing public knew anything about the Amish, this Hollywood lie fabrication would never exist, but who is supposed to object to it........Amish have no electric, and I doubt watch reality TV.

Jersey Shore isn't real? Wha????

weseeeee 12-11-2012 04:52 PM

I don't think too many people will be shocked by this news. Then again??

Paul K 12-11-2012 04:53 PM

I suspect 90% of the time when they cut the lock off, the unit is empty. Someone just forgot to let them know & moved on...

slodave 12-11-2012 05:02 PM

Say it ain't so!

Hugh R 12-11-2012 05:05 PM

I'm shocked!

I went to one of those storage auctions. A lot of crap. A lot of kids stuff and fishing/camping junk.

That Alaska show. The two cousins were deer hunting so they wouldn't starve over the winter. Only problem. One cousin was wearing a $500 Sitka hunting jacket. Anyone mail ordering high end camo isn't gonna starve anywhere.

Family Jewels
 
Ever try to watch Gene Simons Family Jewels? (sorry child of the 80's:D) Worst acting and "over writing" of any "reality" show.. Can anybody think of a worse one?

URY914 12-11-2012 06:30 PM

You mean they're fake??? Don't tell my wife.....:rolleyes:

WolfeMacleod 12-11-2012 10:55 PM

So, so, so badly I want someone to prove or admit that all the Ghost Hunter shows are fake, digitally manipulated fakery.
I know they are. Funny thing, is that I do believe.

I want my GF to come to terms with it too. I'm tired of watching them.:rolleyes:
