Operation Fake-O

Ever watch Tru TV? This used to be called Court TV but they changed the name. (At least when Sci Fi changed their name to SyFy, they did it for trademark purposes.) Tru TV now has the tagline "Not Reality. Actuality." Really? Let's take a look at one of their shows, Operation Repo.

First, the characters. Luis Pizarro plays himself. He claims to be an ex-Marine. Have you seen this dude? Dude is 5'8 and like 500lbs. Seriously, the guy who was the world's largest man looked smaller than Luis. Now, I have known a lot of Marines in my life. And a few ex Marines. This guy doesn't look like an ex-Marine, he looks like he ate an ex Marine, or a company of Marines. But that's just me. He thinks he is a bad arse, but his only move seems to be sitting on people. It is like Dumbo sitting on a person. Except Dumbo is cuter. And smarter.

Then there is Sonia Pizzaro. How do you describe Sonia? Well, she would be white trash if she was white. She doesn't pronounce her name "Son-ya" like normal people. It is like "Sun-ia." Huh? That is not even a name. It is like "Hey, the sun came out today." Its not a name, you who ate the Marine company with your brother. I hope you two weren't twins. Wait, that's not nice. Maybe you were so your parents only had to deal with you two once. Between Luis trying to be tough and you trying to be, well, you try to be something, it is enough to make Kate Gosselin doing her new boyfriend look palatable.

Then we have Froylan Tercero. This guy apparently dated Sonia. Or was married to her. He claims to have a few girls on the side. Really? Froylan, why not be honest with us? You haven't seen a woman in a romantic position since probably '95. Maybe even '94. You think that MC Hammer is still good music. You think Paula Abdul's music is make out music still. Dude, at least admit when you have no game. I can do it - I got no game. Of course, I am married so I don't really need game. You, on the other hand, need game - or more money than you make on this POS show.

Lyndah Pizzaro is Luis daughter. Um, where's mom? San Quentin? Pelican Bay? This girl has as much class as Tila Tequila. Hell, at least Tila knows how to spell. Lyndah is not a cool spelling of Linda, it is an illiterate spelling of a name. I know Luis wants you to go back to college, but I think you should try to make it out of 6th grade. Think of Adam Sandler in Billy Madison. You should go back to school and start at the beginning. Your command of the English language is a bit like listening to the guy in the Gods Must Be Crazy.

Finally, we have Matt Burch. Go check out dude's website. I would link to it, but you know I don't like to give these folks PR. Okay, here it is - http://bigmattburch.com. Go read his about page. It takes about as long as it takes to figure out that Matt is built like Barry Bonds. (Do I need to explain this?) In one episode he looked to be kicked in the boys. Of course, the guy would have needed to have a microscope to find it. Does this explain why his "product endorsement" page is blank? Is it possible that he can't list those products. Of course, most of his website is blank. Really, Matt you are shooting blanks. (Bad, I know, but you are laughing so didn't give me a hard time!) Why don't you go take a week of relaxing and stop acting like a wanna be tough guy? I have met 6th graders who can give a whooping better than your fake act.

But, let's get to the worst part. The show is FAKE! FAKE! It is like a CZ. It is not a real diamond. These people put together a show on Tru TV and it is fake. Doesn't that make "Actuality" false advertising? You are claiming your shows are real when you make them up? And if you are going to make up a show, wouldn't you at least pick people who can speak the language? I mean, it is television so the normal means of communication is talking. And how about you pick a group of folks who don't look like they ate the cars that they repo'd. Come on, you know big boy Luis and Frodo, er, Froylan, look like they could eat a Mini Cooper for an appetizer and finish off the meal with a Jetta. Unreal.

How about this? Tru TV should change its tagline to "Not Reality. BS!" I mean at least that is accurate. And it would describe the regular BM's of Matt.

Wow, you really need to lay off the hate, my dude. Yes, if you claim to be such an expert on this show, you should know that in fact it is fake. The show says it, it's acting to make the audience see what the repossession company is like. Froy? He was married to Sonia, they did have a child. Yes, Lyndah may be "Daddy's Little Girl" but every character brings out something different to the show. For example, Matt is the typical American dude who would kick your ass in 2.5 seconds. Froy is the real professional on this repos, he's the one that hooks them up. If you watch the show, you'd know. Lou is just a simple nice guy, he deals with ass holes who try to blur his day. Sonia is tough as a rock. I know cause I have her on Facebook, she's just like that. And the truth is that she doesn't care what you or anyone else thinks of her. Again, yes, the show is a reenactment of what repossessions are like. If you were expecting this to be real, you're fucking dumb. If you read their bios on truTV.com Lou said that 95% of the repossessions are handed by key. If we saw that all the time, the show would be boring. So they need to bring some actors in to make the show interesting. This is an amazing and entertaining show. It has numerous views, it was the #1 show on Telemundo. If it's not to your standards, sorry.
