Giving back the money on cash cab and getting a cheque instead is safer in terms of potential lawsuits that could arise. If a contestant had said they never actually got paid, the show wouldn't have any proof that they did, in fact, pay them. I think it's a minute detail to the legitimacy of the show. It adds more of a quick-simple-game-show effect seeing them hand over a wad of cash.
+Kierra-Lynn Brisbin Production companies are a business, they legally HAVE to do it that way. If they win more than a few hundred dollars, there's paperwork to be filled out and processed for taxes, etc.
One of the biggest fakes is Pawn Stars it is fake from start to finish. They are all characters from a script. The people who supposedly came in to the store where all recruited no one ever just came in off the street.
+Ray Dziadzio That one is extremely difficult for me to watch. When they use Chumley as some naïve jokester, trying to be funny, when it's so obviously rehearsed, ...end result: not funny. Got to say though, love Rick! You just can't hate the guy.
That's not completely true. In one episode they bought some diamond earings from some guy. Paid like $70k for them. Those earings turned out to be stolen. A friend of my mom's worked on the case. Said that after the segment aired. They visited the shop. They still had the earings, and they were confiscated. The guy who sold them got away.
My dad worked with a reality TV show that does custom paint work on motor vehicles (I can't remember what show it was), but at the end of the show, they gave the motorcycle to the owners son, (the paint job was done specifically for my father). The motorcycle is in my dad's garage.
I was most disappointed by Cash Cab, but it wasn't from this video. Shortly after it started airing, I noticed that at the end of the credits it said "contestants have been pre-screened".
No Joke! I actually watch an operation of doctors separating conjoined twins last week and I got excited. Maybe they are testing the market to go back to their roots!
+Kristen Williams Everything they sell makes millions and anything they post gets millions of view, so I'm guessing no time soon. Blame the retarded youth of today.
What a disappointment. The only reason I watched this was to see what Breaking Amish lied about. I didn't realize you meant it was only an Amish-size scandal; boring. I was hoping, although I'm not sure why, it was all going to be staged. I only saw the first season, but I couldn't believe my eyes!
Never believed any reality shows for 1 sec! The minute I saw two contestants bad mouthing a 3rd party with a camera staring right down at them just inches away, I said alright, cut!
I liked Stan Lee's "Who Wants to Be a Superhero?" But I was a little disappointed when the ones I thought were the best superheroes got kicked off for dumb reasons (like the guy who told the grade-school kids just his first name and they nailed him because "a real superhero never reveals his secret identity to anybody").
I've always enjoyed those Return to/Breaking Amish shows. But it was hilarious when Rebecca and Abe introduced their oldest daughter because she was noticeably older than the year or two the show had been on. Who could have missed that? And they even had a storyline where Rebecca had previously dated Abe's brother, so how could they just be meeting now? And Kate has done interviews complaining that producers tell her what to say and make up fake drama. No lie, I still enjoy watching the show.
OMG! Reality shows are fake? I'm shocked, shocked! And here I was thinking that it was just a coincidence that those cameras were there filming away. Next we will find that the Survivor contestants went home to their own beds at night after filming.
+Nic Feliccia what's funny is I'm reading Fahrenheit 451 and it talks about all these reality shows and TV addictions, that old book predicted we would all become stupid today, so accurate...
you should of told me this be4 i dropped out of middle school, began snorting coke, selling pirated pussy cat dolls CDs, and fathered twelve children...
You forgot the infamous"Amish Mafia"...dun,dun,dun....you know the one with Lebanon Levi and his ex-hooker/stripper girlfriend Esther....this show was a blast to watch because it was just SO unbelievable.Or the "biker" show The Devil's Ride....a semi-scripted show put together by the pro-wrestling guru Eric Bischoff and his partner,the always undistinguished Jason Hervey.
+MD JONES Another one that comes to mind when thinking of over the top fake is Hardcore Pawn, just the most intense staged fights ever they were hilarious to watch.
+Amy Thompson That is the one show that I woulda thought was the most truthful.... I guess not. (And I am a fan of the Amish culture, too. ) I am disappointed. :**(
+mintgumdropz1 I see Amish on a semi regular basis around here. I was really surprised to find out that they 1. Buy houses & actually tear the electric out of them because they don't believe in it, but will pester their neighbors to death wanting to use theirs. Same with the phones. 2. Wear those heavy wool clothes all year long so they usually stink to high heaven. 3. Don't believe in owning a car but will be more than happy to ride in yours. 4. Many times marry just a little too close in the family tree. 5.Will expect you to drive them long distances to family weddings etc & not even offer any gas money. 5. I watched one just the other day go in Speedway & come out with a case of beer. Just blows my mind!
I absolutely hate "reality" shows and never watch them. How anyone can ever believe anything these shows broadcast is beyond me. To be fair though, the show about people at home watching TV together and making comments can sometimes be at least watchable (if nothing else watchable is on) although, again, it is not very demanding intelligence wise. :-)
so you think you can dance is also all staged, my dance instructor a few years ago told us that all the couples dances where you choose names from a hat all had one name inside and everyone knew who their partner was as well as the style of dance. She also said apparently they only choose a certain style of dancer to win so alternative style dancers never win
+Danny Ibarra They're all 'scripted' to a point. They all do retakes, and set up certain scenes. The only true unscripted reality on TV, are live Sporting events.
+Erik Van Rent wrestling you watch on tv is nolonger classified as a sport. That's why they call it the "World Wrestling Entertainment". Amd also why these "wrestlers" no longer need licenses.
Actually none of it surprises me because Hollywood can't leave anything to chance. Real life is much too boring so they feel like they need to control every aspect of production.
I wanted to kind of watch Breaking Aumish but I desided not to. Thank gosh for that. As for the rest, I never watched them ether. I'm More interested in watching UA-cam videos or read a book to watch TV.
+Joe Erickson TOTALLY!!!!!!! Do you think that they actually would ever get away with what they do to people in the streets of NEW YORK!!! where must you live?? Sorry, BRO< it is fake as a rubber pancake!!
+82nd AA Oh,Reality TV is real alright,real bullshit. A real Reality TV show is letting the tongues loose uncensored and the bodies hitting the floor unedited. If they have to censor and/or edit things then its not actually real. When you go to an Army base,you get 110% exactly what you see and hear. Meaning that if a D.I. is out double timing with the troops and calling cadence about pussy and dick then that's exactly what you're going to see and hear unedited and uncensored and not damn bit ashamed about it. lol
When Nicki Swift was coming up with a channel name they were thinking ' hmm we are probably gonna make fun of Nicki Minaji and Taylor Swift, so let's just combine their names'
can we just talk about the fact that the hills actually exposed themself at the end of the series? maybe it wasn't the hills. I can't remember. but at the end of the hills or the city, they literally zoomed out and showed a studio and all that shit. also. Heidi and Spencer have spoken out about how fake it was also. why so negative towards them.
The only surprise I take from this video is that people still watch this stuff. My weakness is talent shows like The Voice or America's Got Talent, but at least they're slightly more honest about how all this is staged and fake.
+Joana Schön I'm holding out hope that some of the talent shows might be real in the sense that the contestants are people who are not famous and that they really are performing their talents and that if not the best at least one of the better contestants win each season. Is it rigged? I don't know. I hope not but I still enjoy watching them. I stopped watching storage wars before the end of the first season. I only watched because that was how I made my living for many years but then I realized that there was no way they could find one or two lockers every single auction that contained valuable treasure. In fifteen years, after having bought over 750 units and selling the contents at the flea market, I found a grand total of three treasure lockers and the best was worth $2500 and I paid $500 for it. So finding lockers worth tens of thousands of dollars every episode or every other episode is ludicrous. I think I watched five or six episodes before I realized what was going on. Now that is not to say one does not find interesting things. About every tenth locker has something interesting in it but rarely are any of those interesting things worth a lot of money. The most interesting thing I found was a box with photo albums containing hundreds of photos of a very famous celebrity. But the Enquirer only offered me $500 for those photos so I looked up the celebrity in question and gave them to them and they were thrilled to get them and I got a personalized photo of her kissing me and then she autographed it and that was worth more than anything the tabloids would have paid me.
+1-Shot slinger Speaking of sit-coms: 2 Broke Girls is so hard to watch - due to being able to finish every punch-line - lacks creativity. Yeah. they're both cute as hell, but the trash talk on the show every night is disturbing if you have kids.
I knew Breaking Amish was all bullshit from the first time I saw it. I learned in school that the Amish have nothing against a member leaving after turning 18 years old. Then this "reality" show has the balls to make the Amish look like a nasty cult and have a guy on screen say "You have to have a lot of balls to leave the Amish." Disgusting!
The reason why the winners have to give back the money in Cash Cab and wait for a cheque is more for accounting/fraud purposes. The accountants enter the winnings into the accounting system to process a cheque so it is easier to keep track of than if they had to count the money left over after each taping and it reduces the risk of fraud as the host or production staff can just pocket some of the money if the whole amount did not have to come back to the studios. Pretty boring reason but necessary =(
Intervention is my go to Reality TV, at least the show tells me at the very start what their addiction is unlike other Reality TV shows that don't admit that their "star" is just an attention addict.
I just assume that 99.9% of reality TV is fake.
+Jack Mills Same
I am assuming that to
No! It can't be true! The Kardashians always seem like such honest, genuine people!
LOL
love it!
TRIGGERED
minutemuse 😂😂😂💀💀💀
Boy! Go back to school to learn the difference between Reality and Fantasy. Lord *splashes you with holy water*
Made from tummy hurt from LOLing so hard.

Because then it wouldn't be a "cash cab" but a "cheque cab".
Kierra Lynn
Headrests on the car seats would be safer too 🤔😂
What? Reality shows are staged??? Say it ain't so!
you just now figured that out god what is this
Sarcasm. It went past your head and out the fucking door.
+Jonas Marsh (MovieBuff) yes it did haha
Ashley Morales @
In all fairness I know people that think it's 100% reality. Sad times we live in.
Amish aren't "allowed" to be on camera anyway so I knew that show was bs
But they were "leavening" the Amish
+Philip Meredith You mean Jeremiah?
+Jessica Brand Either that was a typo or a very clever bread-making pun. Aldough, I'd claim the latter if I were you.
;-)
+Kerri September oh shit didn't see that, lets just say I did that on purpose
And wearing makeup too.
I'm a 1000% sure EVERYONE knew the hills was staged.
exactly zero surprised me because I've never seen a reality show that even remotely convinced me it was starring real people.
One of the biggest fakes is Pawn Stars it is fake from start to finish. They are all characters from a script. The people who supposedly came in to the store where all recruited no one ever just came in off the street.
+Ray Dziadzio That one is extremely difficult for me to watch. When they use Chumley as some naïve jokester, trying to be funny, when it's so obviously rehearsed, ...end result: not funny. Got to say though, love Rick! You just can't hate the guy.
That's not completely true.
In one episode they bought some diamond earings from some guy. Paid like $70k for them.
Those earings turned out to be stolen.
A friend of my mom's worked on the case. Said that after the segment aired. They visited the shop. They still had the earings, and they were confiscated.
The guy who sold them got away.
And Chumley got arrested!
JuliusSneezer No surprise with that dude!
+JuliusSneezer why?
They take an element that they see is viewer worthy and exploit the hell out of it.
+Marie B Amen ! You nailed it. (Let's just be grateful that Honey Boo Boo isn't on anymore... : / )
+Marie B -----> I add MONEY worthy...
I don't think this industry are mooved by quality entertainment. It's controversy and trashy talk they want.
Reality TV ruined TV.
+Wee Willy Wonka ...No!! Screech and Urkel ruined TV. Reality TV just made it more nauseous.
+Dee Cook none of the actors worked any where else
My dad worked with a reality TV show that does custom paint work on motor vehicles (I can't remember what show it was), but at the end of the show, they gave the motorcycle to the owners son, (the paint job was done specifically for my father). The motorcycle is in my dad's garage.
Huh?
Cash Cab surprised me the most....I thought they really got to walk away with their winnings at the end of the ride!!!
Reality shows are the lowest kind of entertainment ever
Agree especially Kardashian s
all reality TV shows are BS.Thats why I have never watched them.Zero interest.
👌
+darlene yee exactly why are you looking for videos on reality shows and commenting them?
What surprises me is that people actually think reality tv shows are real.
***** haha well said and true
Reality tv is an oxymoron within itself it shld just b real fake tv
1:26 Discovery channel states that Cash Cab was filmed in Toronto, Canada. Was that a lie too?!
I was most disappointed by Cash Cab, but it wasn't from this video. Shortly after it started airing, I noticed that at the end of the credits it said "contestants have been pre-screened".
Oh well.... I still found it mighty entertaining
TV these days is Crap (with a capital C). TLC especially.. I mean, why is it still called the LEARNING CHANNEL!!
+ohdrey.reads it's not, they've changed it to just the initials and NO ONE calls it The Learning Channel anymore.
the loser channel where you learn it's fake
No Joke! I actually watch an operation of doctors separating conjoined twins last week and I got excited. Maybe they are testing the market to go back to their roots!
Check out this show. It reveals all the reality show secrets! ua-cam.com/video/08ZKmr5hqNo/v-deo.html
I was actually kind of pissed off about the Amish show being faked...all the other ones were really obvious though
Can the Kardashians please go away now?
+Kristen Williams we can only hope
+Kristen Williams Everything they sell makes millions and anything they post gets millions of view, so I'm guessing no time soon. Blame the retarded youth of today.
Why is it that any time a see one of the Kardashians..I want to gouge my eyes out..
The very best of Hollywood's fame leeches. ;)
minutemuse The real Addams family
+Bubba D Okay, hold on. The Addams family is fucking delightful.
minutemuse Yeah, bad example Sorry
+Bubba D Because Americans love to watch a good train wreck.
why do they even call them reality shows if they're staged?
Marketing.
noemistephanie93 because people don't want to watch the scripted show
Oh, if you guys were going to do Breaking Amish you definitely should have done Amish Mafia. One of the fakest reality shows ever.
Wait... The Hills was supposed to be a reality show? I always thought it was just a regular show with very bad acting.
YES!!!!!! SAME
I gotta say, I LOVE this channel!!!!
What a disappointment. The only reason I watched this was to see what Breaking Amish lied about. I didn't realize you meant it was only an Amish-size scandal; boring. I was hoping, although I'm not sure why, it was all going to be staged. I only saw the first season, but I couldn't believe my eyes!
So glad I have never watched any of these shows.
David Childers Me too
you would think a show about being Amish would at least be partially true smh and it was revealed in the show that they have a child together
Never believed any reality shows for 1 sec! The minute I saw two contestants bad mouthing a 3rd party with a camera staring right down at them just inches away, I said alright, cut!
+trent8002003 ikr !? I quit watching after the first season ( win) of Survivor.
That did it for me. :/
I liked Stan Lee's "Who Wants to Be a Superhero?"

I know Rumspringa is a real rite of passage that Amish teens do go through, but does it get THAT bad?
i was upset about breaking Amish lol..
I know Rumspringa is a real rite of passage that Amish teens do go through, but does it get THAT bad?
You forgot 19 kids & counting. They acted like a perfect family but they were hiding a dirty secret & turned out to be hateful
+Chrisgirl867 I think they didn't bother with that one because of the news coverage that show already got and the fact they are no longer on the air.
Shouldn't every reality TV show be on here
especially total drama island. lol
Jenna Candy the ones listed aren't even the worst. housewives of whatever county. it like do you really need to take a fight ever episode.
Jonghyun4life that's a cartoon
The Kartrashian shows are fake...Wow I'm so shocked & disappointed, They seem like such a wonderful, upstanding family !!!
Tim O'Brien I hope you mean that sarcastically because it is widely known that it is fake.
that Amish was good. I miss it.
OMG! Reality shows are fake? I'm shocked, shocked! And here I was thinking that it was just a coincidence that those cameras were there filming away. Next we will find that the Survivor contestants went home to their own beds at night after filming.
Reality TV is fantastic ! Keep em coming !
I could have made this video shorter. reality shows that lied to you.....ALL OF THEM.
Hey what about that show about the salon in New Jersey with the feuding stylists on the style channel. I don't recall the title at the moment
Jerseylicious?
Sadly that was real LOL
Lol, none of it is a surprise, I've always figured there was little to no reality in reality tv.
Lol I thought I would go "All of them." ane end the video 😂
turn off tv and read a book that will help you be better
👍
best advice ever
+Nic Feliccia what's funny is I'm reading Fahrenheit 451 and it talks about all these reality shows and TV addictions, that old book predicted we would all become stupid today, so accurate...
I canceled cable 3 years ago. Haven't watched TV since.

You forgot the infamous"Amish Mafia"...dun,dun,dun....you know the one with Lebanon Levi and his ex-hooker/stripper girlfriend Esther....this show was a blast to watch because it was just SO unbelievable.Or the "biker" show The Devil's Ride....a semi-scripted show put together by the pro-wrestling guru Eric Bischoff and his partner,the always undistinguished Jason Hervey.
+MD JONES Another one that comes to mind when thinking of over the top fake is Hardcore Pawn, just the most intense staged fights ever they were hilarious to watch.
i used to love breaking amish. i thought it was real. my feelings are hurt
If you watch any of these show with the sound turned off you will notice how staged everything is, sounds weird but it works.
You can tell its fake even with sound because these morons on "reality" shows can't act. Its all so scripted. No one talks like them lol
Those Amish aren't as Puritan as most people think they are. We live in an area where there are some. Strange people I must say for sure.
+Amy Thompson That is the one show that I woulda thought was the most truthful.... I guess not.

+Amy Thompson wow the Amish sound kinda shitty ...how disappointing
You forgot to say that the Kardashian shows are all completely scripted.
can anyone tell me the name of the song pls?
Surprised no one mentioned the Teen Mom series
I absolutely hate "reality" shows and never watch them. How anyone can ever believe anything these shows broadcast is beyond me. To be fair though, the show about people at home watching TV together and making comments can sometimes be at least watchable (if nothing else watchable is on) although, again, it is not very demanding intelligence wise. :-)
was dave's fight with Dan fake?
They need a satire show titled ALL LIES ALL THE TIME.
+Jonathan Lowe Look up a show called The Joe Schmo Show lol
Wow cash cab lied to us!
Breaking Amish... I loved that show... at least Alaskan Bush People is legit... lol
I know Rumspringa is a real rite of passage that Amish teens do go through, but does it get THAT bad?
What is this music in the background
so you think you can dance is also all staged, my dance instructor a few years ago told us that all the couples dances where you choose names from a hat all had one name inside and everyone knew who their partner was as well as the style of dance.

I don't watch any of these. I feel pretty good about that.
I've been saying for years now that idc, I refuse to ever believe the hills was fake....okay, just let me believe lol
So there is un-scripted reality show really?
Survivor?
+Danny Ibarra They're all 'scripted' to a point. They all do retakes, and set up certain scenes.
The only true unscripted reality on TV, are live Sporting events.
Except for wrestling.
+Erik Van Rent wrestling you watch on tv is nolonger classified as a sport. That's why they call it the "World Wrestling Entertainment". Amd also why these "wrestlers" no longer need licenses.

did anyone else get the UnREAL ad?

That was Q when he got into a fight in Germany. But he got let out a few hours later.
NO, it's not fake!
You could tell that the hills was fake af lol

WOW I told everybody even my mom that reality TV is fake but nope they thinks its real.
What surprised me the most? The fact that your show wasn't an hour long.
It’s a reality Tv show ….. of course …. U gotta make it exiting!! 🤣😂🤣😂
Are there still those who believe "Reality" TV shows are real?
Hell, even the news isn't real.
+82nd AA Oh,Reality TV is real alright,real bullshit.
A real Reality TV show is letting the tongues loose uncensored and the bodies hitting the floor unedited.
If they have to censor and/or edit things then its not actually real.

Meaning that if a D.I. is out double timing with the troops and calling cadence about pussy and dick then that's exactly what you're going to see and hear unedited and uncensored and not damn bit ashamed about it. lol
Do people still watch reality TV? That's so 20th century!
The biggest surprise was that you felt the need to tell us what we already knew.
When Nicki Swift was coming up with a channel name they were thinking ' hmm we are probably gonna make fun of Nicki Minaji and Taylor Swift, so let's just combine their names'
Ooh the Hills was fake?! No way. I'm so upset, I need to listen to my Milli Vanilli album...
Yeah but someone REALLY crapped on the stairs on Flava of Love lmfaooo
can we just talk about the fact that the hills actually exposed themself at the end of the series? maybe it wasn't the hills.

+hang99 Yeah and Pawn Stars, Big Brother and basically all of them. They must rely on all those fools who thought "Blair Witch" was real.
Sarcastically *Oh no! I never knew that reality shows weren't based on reality! What am I to do!?*
I remember the storage wars crap!finding a 4200 dollars 100+ year old watch in a storage space??

The only surprise I take from this video is that people still watch this stuff. My weakness is talent shows like The Voice or America's Got Talent, but at least they're slightly more honest about how all this is staged and fake.
I would be surprised if any reality tv show was real. Everyone acts differently in front of the camera
It makes me sad people believe "reality TV" is real.
TLC should be ashamed of what they've become.
reality tv is when i take a video of myself walking and put it on my tv...that is the ONLY reality tv that's real.
