The real.. Reality TV

These two guys come up with some pretty funny stuff.

It's interesting that the ubiquitous "boom in frame" trope that is always supposed to cue us in to either poor tradecraft, or the "artifice" of filmmaking, makes its appearance here. Nothing is more artificial than a producer contriving scenarios or putting words into people's mouth. Is it still "unscripted" if the producer is writing the script verbally, in the moment, and feeding it to the actor playing the role of themself?Logging a pitch show...and having to listen to several days footage of the producer's inane sensibilities as he crudely sculpted their participants words, via whatever it is that serves as a proxy for creativity inside these people.

Love it.
