Poorly re-enacted at that.

Nope. It's the one giving the shoulder massage (looks like he's doing a good job too). Made famous by "The Time Machine" book/movies.

When the show first came out, it was real. Later they went to "reenactors", possible for insurance purposes. Still, if that big blonde girl went after me ....

Tazed people don't fall like that. They also don't twitch while on the ground; they just tighten up.

I can't watch this show anymore. So hokey it's unbelievable, and then when you find out it's staged...... pointless. Gimme reruns of cops any day.

Well, it'd get pretty boring just watching tow trucks pick up cars out of apartment complexes and driveways all day. It takes like 10 seconds to pick up a car and disappear with a repo truck, there's no reason for any drama.

I watched them repo a neighbor's mustang once. they grabbed it from her driveway at 3am, pulled it around the corner, hooked up the chains.. and were gone in less than 2 minutes

I do recall one bunch of car thieves posing as Repo guys. Did well until they tried to lift a Jeep from the Hope House (House for Cancer patients) next door to us. There were always three or four old guys out front, you see...

First we can't trust our reality TV shows and next we won't be able to trust our government.

Nothing is more scripted than reality television.

we all know operation repo is fake, but is "all worked up" fake too? some of the stuff they show seems real enough but then some of the others, like the process server, are so fake its stupid.
