reality tv show BGT is exposed as fake -again
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 май 2024
- but the stories about BGT manipulation go back at least to series 2 and the appalling treatment of the Deans of Magic as also the horror story of Sharon Osbourne's takedown of Steve Brockstein. Nobody should be exposed to such nastiness on live tv but we call this "entertainment" and assume (wrongly) that the participants volunteered- most of the time, they were headhunted... just doing a job and humiliated by a bunch of nasties with power.

An evening spent in front of the TV these days consists of presssing a button about 500 times in order to discover that there is nothing on worth watching.
I stopped watching TV during lockdown and never went back.
Nearly 20 years for me. Anything I have an urge to watch, I buy outright on bluray or apple tv. It means I get no ads as well.
about 14 years clean for me.
I have not had a TV since 1995.
I refuse to watch any reality tv shows or anything that have so called celebrties.
Have never watched them, they are pathetic.
Whether it's Homes Under The Hammer, Bargain Hunt, Escape To The Country or suchlike, much of what appears on the screen is staged to appear as spontaneous behaviour.
But, unfortunately, not very well!
It’s about as convincingly acted as a primary school Nativity Play; by the sheep and, especially, the ass.
Of course it’s scripted and arranged. The production time and cost would be enormous if it was real life.
Some of the so called experts on bargain hunt are in the wrong job.
If I was given Danny or Gary as my expert I'd go home imidiatly 😊
Most of the contestants lose on Bargain Hunt. So it's most likely genuine, but many of the shows experts don't exactly have the best judgement.
85% people who watch rubbish repeat TV all day vote a clown on ellection day, mostly nurses, football fans and working people
Cowell needs to look in the mirror before criticising anyone. His face so full of work, and Holden not much better, fish lips.
Decent programmes mostly disappeared years go- 3000 channels and nothing on.
Sharon Osbourne's dad ripped off the 'Small Faces' band when he was their manager. Being nasty must run in the family.
I am amazed by the gullibility of the target audience. They seem cursed with a complete lack of discernment.
All TV is fake. I gave up watching it years ago.
I never watch any of these drivel programs and can’t believe people who like and enjoy such dross 👍👍
It is the number of detective series with horrible murders that get me. Plus the number of amateur chef competitions or improving your home, plus fantastic holidays abroad, when people in this country are struggling for money.
I don’t watch Tv anymore, I watch RUclips, some good films to be found , plus I like to watch a few channels for information / news items. Have a nice day everyone
🤣🤣🤣 Mrs Trout
Hence I have not watched TV in 10 years. It all suks.
No proper programmes now, it’s all quizzes, so called reality - which is scripted - and cooking! I prefer music and a good book.
So Britain doesn't actually have talent then? I always wondered. 😂
In other news, water is wet
so many creative and talented people who go to these auditions. I know brilliant singers who go, they have to go through a lot of auditions they say, like a whole lot of auditions and get rejected, its not the first time theyve been heard, lot of pre auditions.
Going on reality TV, who was it who made a pact with the Devil ?
Another program I don’t watch 😂
But if it's on TV it MUST be true..? Otherwise why does trump exist?
Dragons Den is quite heavily choreographed, I believe.
Watching your video you has sent sharp needle points down my spine. You have eerily described the situation of someone I know, even one of your small details, and it left me cold. The way this individual was treated their after raising hopes and dreams I thought was cruel. They lost money before attending auditions by needing to change other appointments. Because members of my family are in this business, luckily with some success, I am aware of the darker side.
Reality? Yeah, right.
The milligram experiment was not about people being nasty to each other, it was testing the way we follow instructions because of how we trust people in charge
Check out the details- it was filmed and edited and not entirely without serious manipulation
Agreed. I think the good Professor slightly missed the point on that one.
@@ProfessorTimWilson some of the original "learners" were interviewed many years later and a significant number of those manipulated had serious and permanent psychological damage.
@@ProfessorTimWilson Hi Prof, have total respect for you but have to say unlike many other (Stanford etc) this was NOT manipulated, other than the fact that the participants were lied to and didnt know that the person giving the instructions and the person receiving the shocks were actors, it is what it is.Respectfully.
Idleness is one of the causes.
Most primates in this condition, do their best to make the lives of their compatriots miserable.
Perhaps a natural phenomena, I keep busy.
I know what you mean, I used to get regular exercise getting off the settee, But now I've got the remote😀
The phone lines make alot of cash on reality TV as do these win a car etc phone line on TV shows like GMB
Next, you'll be telling me that Aussie Gold Hunters don't really have emergency equipment failures or discover gold at the last minute of each episode!
Get rid of the tv- you’ll never look back. I plough through books. It’s glorious ❤❤❤
To me, the show has always had obvious hallmarks of Fakery. It is totally manipulative and designed to whip everyone up into emotional hysteria. The performers are basically just treated like Fodder by the ‘Judges’- who themselves certainly have neither the credentials, talent, or right to destroy careers the way they plainly enjoy doing! They are Narcissists who don’t care that they are dealing with real people who have feelings. They know exactly who they want to Win long before the Final and after the Final also to lose interest in their winner. Leona Lewis for example was the natural successor to Whitney Houston but obviously never received the career guidance that should have had to ensure her place in the Big League.
Yes, it’s fake and cruel. BGT control everything. They set acts up to fail - a slippery floor for a gymnastic act for example. At the end of the performance Simon Cowell says something nasty to elicit a shocked expression on the actors faces. It is then spliced on to the recording at the point where the act has been told that they have failed so it looks as if they didn’t even realise how bad they were. The humiliation is hard to live with.
spot on .
4:45 I dare say you watch these things at your own expense too. It reinforces a pattern of taking joy in other's faliures and I think that rather sad. I'd much rather feel compassion than entertainment at the site of someone struggling/failing and watching this kind of TV seems to encourage feeling the latter.
I worked as security on a "reality" tv show. There's no reality there. There might have been three people interacting on camera, supposedly alone, but another 50 just outside camera range, eating from the craft table.
Years and years ago there was a tv programme where people were put together (I think on a remote Scottish Island) and had to live as a group. Challenges were set to determine a winner at the end. In interviews after the programme ended, all the other contestants said the winner was favoured from day one and everything had been geared towards him. The winner was Ben Fogle. Then there was a tv programme series to discover a comedian, where the winner got to appear on the Royal Variety. Again the contestants who did not win all said in interviews after, that from day one the whole show had been set out to favour one comedian. That comedian (I do not recall her name) was all over tv and still is as I understand it. As with others who have commented……..I to have not watched TV since the hoax and never intend to ever watch the rubbish ever again.
This is why I don't watch tv anymore, my family used to love watching these "talent" shows. Believed them real too so couldn't understand why some people got voted off as a result. Though in their defence this was a year or two after these sorts of shows first started.
I finally had my old analogue tv taken away and havn't missed it a bit!
TV. ever thought of evacuating your bowels on a regular basis
I use that device in the bathroom😀
Apropos nothing, really, but I saw that thumbnail and thought, “Quentin Tarantino’s really let himself go,” before rubbing my eyes and getting a second take. To your point, there needs to be some better, more public accountability. We have seen that our regulators are uninterested and toothless at best, in cahoots and a client of the government at worst. Sitting MP’s presenting, “news,” and current affairs shows is illegal, yet happening in Britain.
And talent shows may seem like harmless fun and less important than direct government corruption, but they’re really not. The fact is that producers are like rising water levels, constantly rising to increasingly threatening levels unless people keep bailing to stop us all from drowning in exploitation, cruelty and ultimately, tragedy.
The producers of these shows should be monitored by unbiased OFFCOM officials with the power to shut down a production on the spot and refer crimes where they are found. They will find that producers are always breaking the law, blackmailing, victimising, bullying, manipulating and pulling strings that no decent person would touch in, “real,” life.
I rarely, if ever watch, “reality TV.” I prefer the good, honest truth that makes good fiction so compelling.
Well gosh why do I find easy to believe
Anything for easy cheap TV
Hi Tim, if you look up on here. Zoe Alexander X Factor the truth her 2 part series actually tells all about her experience as a contestant. Really interesting stuff
Agree there is little to watch but I do like countdown to improve my spelling and maths, Nothing to do with those figure tight dresses Rachel Riley wears , Its not about that.
I'm trying to increase my word power, [ But did you see what she wore last Friday-phew , why is it suddenly hot in here] 😀
I think it’s a shocking program Iv stopped watching it for a long time now.
I remember being asked if I wanted to go on one of those weekday morning shows that were on back in the 90s, Trisha, John Stapleton you know the type. I refused because I knew back then despite the professed aim of the shows in the end they were freak shows. No thank you!
I've known reality shows are a con for years, they're the dregs. I started watching the Repair Shop when it began, thought it was 'different' but after a few weeks it was obvious it was scripted, and the wait, wait, wait, for the tears to come......good grief, it's an absolute disgrace to do that. How the participants can go along with it astounds me. As for that Osbourne woman, that scene you showed was disgusting and the programme should end.
Lamp or not lamp 😅😅
Again. 😏
Breaking the link between the map and territory BGT and every other ‘reality’ show presents Society as a simulation At no point does the model refer to a ‘reality’, guaranteed by God, or ‘matter’. It only refers to the operational model of its own production. Or at least some bloke in the pub thinks so.
Check out Masterchef.
Shame on anyone who still watches TV and pays the licence.
I can think of worse things I've done to be more ashamed of😀
@@msimms-lp5qw shame on you for funding the BBC!
No shite Sherlock
I don't watch any of this talent show stuff but the occasional bit of "reality" tv I will watch. But I don't see your problem with Osbourne, you say the whole thing is a charade, so what is the problem with her playing a nasty character. Surely its the choice of the program makers and not her fault?
Complete Balderdash , irrelevant bollocks prof
After not having had a tv for about 15 years I now have one again.
Plenty of quantity; very little quality.
I find I am watching reruns of stuff from over 15 years ago.
And what’s with all the shopping channel drivel? 🤷🏻♂️
Nearly correct! Occasionally, talent is unearthed and, so rumour has it, that new talent needs to immediately sign up with a certain organisation to make any further progress.
Apparently realistic shows like Masterchef are "arranged" and sometimes you can tell that the comments made by the judges before we know the results have actually been uttered after the results were known. That is they used hindsight but potrayed it as foresight.
But, could it be that all TV is fake? We know about talent shows but what about quiz shows? Are all the questions genuine? Have any of the answers been scripted? The "comedy" ones certainly are. Have you ever noticed how many "program associates" the quiz show Have I Got News For You has in its list of credits? Those people are script writers!
Even more highbrow quizzes like Mastermind have quirks. Issues that arise during the course of the questions are edited out by the contestant having to repeat the filming of that complete section again. I have not watched it since the Magnus Magnussen days but every participant would be asked a question about their local area in the general knowledge section, for instance, so the questions asked are not random. I wonder how much else is pre-arranged.
The shows where two opposing sides are lined up for an in studio battle are done for entertainment. They want the parties to react badly. This continues into programs like Question Time. Facts and impartiality are not important but the spectacle is.
It does make one wonder how accurate even the News is or whether that is just a different form of entertainment designed to elicit certain responses or convey certain propaganda.
