Let’s face it, most of us should probably spend a little more time exercising and a little less on watching people try to lose weight on ‘The Biggest Loser’. But we don’t and that’s why we enjoy it so much.
The show is notorious for putting its overweight participants on soul-crushing diets that end up backfiring horribly after the show ends. Many of the show’s “medical professionals” have also been criticized, and are most likely not licensed. Uncertified… and fake!
Catfish
The premise of MTV’s 'Catfish' is certainly interesting. It features hosts Nev and Max as they help people uncover the identities of those they’ve been chatting with online.
You’d think that they get approached by people who suspect they are being catfished, but many reports claim that the show’s producers actually get approached by people who catfish and want to apply for it. Now that’s just wrong… and fake.
WAGS LA
When E! first launched WAGS back in 2015, it quickly became one of the network's most-watched reality shows. The premise behind the show was that you have to have a behind-the-scenes look at the life and drama of being a sports star’s wife.
Unfortunately, most of the conflicts and drama in the show were completely made up. The show’s deceptiveness got to the point where some women in it didn’t even date these athletes in real life. What a fake.
Pimp My Ride
Back in 2004, MTV and Xzibit teamed up for a show about breaking down mediocre cars and turning them into pimped out rides. Unfortunately, despite the show’s exciting premise, many of its restorations were fake.
Many of the cars that were “pimped out” never actually got improved the way they were shown. They were simply outfitted with various props that just look good on camera. What a shame! And a fake!
Long Island Medium
Whatever your opinion is on mediums and fortune tellers, you can’t deny that they have a certain appeal. 'Long Island Medium' is a great example of taking that premise to the extreme. Although it does have its fair share of issues, Theresa Caputo, the show’s star medium, has been involved in many, many scandals and legal issues over the years.
The star has also been accused of receiving most of her readings from the crew through a hidden earbud. Very medium and totally fake.
