This is the worst show ever, right?


This has to be one of the worst shows to ever grace the air...at least in my opinion. How stupid do they think the viewers are? This is obviously staged and scripted. Or are we supposed to know that it's scripted and just roll with it? I can't really tell what they're going for here.

I'm pretty sure they only include several people on the show so Mr. Funny Man can call them names that aren't even funny...names writers are feeding to him.

And if they are acting, why not get a couple that can actually act? The main couple that always bid on the storage units can't act worth sh!t. Come on, man.

I had never watched TruTV before I had to endure this show at a family function. Is this the kind of crap that's always on this channel?

1000 Ways to Die and Manswers are easily the worst shows ever.

This is probably 4th, behind the aforementioned and Oprah.

This show is just ridiculous. The way the units always have stuff out and displayed. Not in boxes or bins. When they find a car or the two motorcycles. Even Storage Wars got the rules right on that. Unless they have gone through a DMV check, they cannot be sold with the unit and will be auctioned at a later date.

The auctioneer that walks into the unit after the sale and tells them what everything is worth.

The fake fights. The bad acting. TruTV is not truly true tv. Some of the worst scripted shows are being passed off to the public on this channel.

I happen to enjoy the show, though I don't think for a second that it's legit. My belief is that these are real people who really do this for a living, but most of it (if not everything) is staged and scripted, which would explain why the acting is bad. It's the same with Hardcore Pawn (one of my favorites), Operation Repo, Pawn Stars, all of those fishing shows, etc. The real people aspect is the reality, but the situations are almost always fake.

Yes, it's awful, keep away!
I actually enjoy "Pawn stars", "Storage wars" and the like (although I know it's not totally real), but this how... Eew... The people are horrible, every sell is so apparently staged and they can't even act!

"Why not get a couple that can actually act?"

You mean like 'actors'? Well that would cost them more money; these shows are cheap to make, that's why we see so many of them on the different networks. By not having actors, the producers are able to convince themselves that we (the audience) will think it's real.

Haha, I just came across this old thread I created. Totally forgot about this sh!t show.
