Some of the stuff just seems too coincidental to be real. Like the lady having a heart attack and him having health issues.

I drive past that White Castle in Hamilton for work every once in awhile, and I've actually eaten at that one in Covington. I'm tempted to stop in and ask the people about it to find out just how staged the show is.

slyders...!
real interesting show. probably the staple of my diet in college. this show remains really interesting. not sure how much is staged...but at least 5-6 emplyoyees per week make out, so......that's a start.

Interesting show, but I think too much of it is pre-arranged or staged.

Caught the show for the first time last time. I enjoyed it very much, but also wonder how much of it is "reality?"

For example, how does the undercover boss get those jobs in the first place? I assume most people need to go through some sort of interview process?

They act as if he is on a TV show trying out entry level jobs. I assume the workers are told the decision was made at the corporate level. It takes out some of the reality, because the workers know they are going to be on TV.
