"The Moment of Truth" TV show

Post by cardinalkarp »

I'm not sure if anyone has ranted about this show before but it has got to be one of the most god awful things I've witnessed on television. Why anyone would volunteer to put themselves, family and friends through that no matter what amount of money is beyond me. Sure some of the questions are stupid and funny but some of them are really out to basically destroy the last semblance of a life that you may or may not of had before this (I would lean towards may not of had since you have to be a pretty big douche to sign up for this to begin with).

i was watchin it last night 'cause i was waiting for "hells kitchen" to start...

its a bad show, for sure. theres a lot to rant about, but i will rant about how they preview the next episode. they are talking about next weeks show during the credits and the voiceover guy is like "this heartless woman will stop at nothing to win money, but what will it cost her?" and bullcrap like that...but it's like...thats the point of your show...don't question her character...

i dunno...but yeah, terrible show

You cheer people for winning money...but then you realize how big of slimeballs that they are.

Yeah, I caught the tail end of it waiting for Hell's Kitchen as well. I did have to laugh when they asked the guy if he wanted to get back w/ his ex-girlfriend and he of course says "yes". Then they go to her before asking him the next question and ask him if he was romantic when they were in their relationship and she gets a nice smile on her face and says yes, "He was very romantic and was always saying nice things." Guess what the next question they ask him was....Did you ever cheat on your girlfriend when you guys were in your relationship? Of course his answer was "yes", she starts crying and the douchebag host walks over and gives her a kleenex.

I think there was another rant about this sometime in the past, but it can't be overemphasized just how horrible this show is.

heres another thing...again, im watching it b/c im waiting for hells kitchen...dont have cable so my options are limited and FOX comes in well...anyway...

my next criticism (in a long list) is the editing...when they come back from commercial they replay like...3 mins of content that we already saw, exact same scenes again...

man this show is so cheap...i bet it costs FOX next to nothing to make

This is why I just operate under the assumption that shows like these are fake, because it's just too hard for me to put any faith in the thought of people willingly going on them.

Never underestimate how greedy some people can be.
