Where are they picking? Mars?

It cracks me up how they always go into a big intro on who they are and what they do. Are there still people out there who don't have basic cable, and are they only people they are targeting? If they showed up at my house and wanted to sift through our junk I'd stop them mid-sentence and say, "I know who you are." Stuff like this supports my theory that much of this show is not real but staged.

If they showed up at my house.....

They'd never "just show up" at your house. It would all be pre-arranged.

Of course, it's staged.

Did you ever notice that when the "victim" opens the front door, they're not at all shocked to see a complete camera crew filming the arrival? They don't even blink an eye. They act like it's an every day occurrence.

That's not a normal reaction if 2 strangers just "dropped by."
