American Idol
In 2001, the first episode of this hugely popular television show aired. It is based on a straightforward premise. They held auditions across the country until they found the rightful winner of American Idol. The vast majority of the tens of millions of hopefuls will be disappointed. Scouts were rumored to be on the lookout for the most talented singers prior to the auditions. Isn’t it heartbreaking to find out it was all a farce?
Catfish
Hosts Max and Nev attempt to solve the mystery of “who is really behind these profiles” in this MTV hit show. Catfishing may seem strange at first, but it is a common practice. This isn’t to say that everything you see on the show is accurate. The application process is said to have been reversed by the producers. In order to be considered for a spot on the show, catfishers had to fill out an application.
