There is this show I am really getting into called “Operation Repo” from Tru T.V. It is basically a reality show following around a vehicle repossession company as they do their job. It is extremely entertaining and sometimes really funny.
There is Lou (the owner) an ex Marine. Froy (who’s usually the voice of reason). Sonjia (who becomes mega bitch at the drop of a hat especially to Froy because they were married for ten years and she’s also Lou’s sister). Lyndah (who can be nice and is also Lou’s daughter). And Matt (a big ol’ SOB who’s the muscle of the group).
Although the show is extremely entertaining I do have to ask, “Is this show REAL”? It seems as though the crew gets into a ton of confrontations and some of them seem to be scripted. Also, sometimes somebody throws a punch at the guys. But when they do, it seems a little fake.
Last night I was watching and a guy broke a bottle over Lou’s head. It was all caught on camera and it seemed to me that maybe the bottle was fake. Like one of those movie prop bottles that break really easy. Froy and Matt repossessed a car from a younger guy that got really upset and started dancing like Michael Jackson. I can’t imagine somebody acting like that in real life.
Regardless if it is fake or not, it is still a very entertaining show and I am sure you may like it. I totally suggest you watch it.
I haven’t seen this show. I’ve always thought “Reality” shows aren’t real life because once you put a camera in someone’s face, they start acting different. I used to get into a show called American Chopper about a real family and their motorcycles. It must have caught on because suddenly they were building motorcycles for famous people, going on the road, signing autographs, etc. I’ve heard that the family, which featured a dad and two of his sons, is disintergrating. I blame the camera and the fame. I wouldn’t want a camera in my face recording my everyday life. It’s too boring anyway. I would never “act” like myself.
That said, I think I’ll tune into “Operation Repo.” I think it’s something I can watch with my husband. Our TV tastes only, very rarely, coincide.
I used to love that show. Then, I thought that show was being scripted and took away a lot. For me at least. I think you & your husband will like “Operation Repo”. Let me know if you think it’s fake or not.
