One of the world’s most popular cooking shows is without a doubt ‘Hell’s Kitchen’. Gordon Ramsey used it to become a household figure and is regularly shown yelling and getting supremely mad at some of the show’s less competent participants.
Sadly, not only is most of the show scripted, but many of the actual customers of the restaurant are paid actors. Oh-so blazing fake.
90 Day Fiance
There are so many things wrong about '90 Day Fiance' that many of us hoped it was fake from the get-go. The premise of the show is that a person “imports” a potential foreign wife or husband, and has 90 days to marry them before their tourist visa expires.
Some participants claimed that the drama in the show was intentionally gained by producers for ratings. There were so many things morally wrong about this show that some had to be fake.
MasterChef USA
Whether or not 'MasterChef', 'Hell’s Kitchen', or any show involving Gordon Ramsay is real, everyone mostly watches these shows to see the notorious chef yelling at people and inventing creative expletives.
It’s still worth mentioning that, Ben Starr, a former participant, wrote a long blog post claiming that the entire behavior of the cast is fake and intentionally overdramatized. But that is to be expected in prime-time television, real, or fake.
Say Yes to the Dress
'Say Yes To The Dress' basically follows a bride’s journey while finding the ideal wedding dress. Many people that have attended the show’s sets have claimed that a lot of the participant’s reactions were rehearsed and dramatized.
The bridal boutique featured on the show was also exaggerated in its size and popularity. Extravagant and fake.
American Idol
'American Idol' was one of the pioneers in the reality audition TV show format. The show pitted various candidates against its veteran judges and often ended up in some hilarious performances.
It’s been reported that the show’s producers send talent scouts to make sure they have a few winners at the end of each episode, and fills the rest of the time with terrible participants who are known flops ahead of time. Talentless and fake.
