The Profit (2013–2021)
5/10
90% fake or 100% fake, take your pick
28 September 2016
For the first few episodes I liked the show, but very soon it became clear than this was a "reality" show first, with reality far down the list. The show had mostly good workers and bosses mixed in with a few AH business owners, and along with Marcus they all did the same/similar thing throughout each show. Life, and business, is not like that. Every episode has much drama added, with disagreements, tears, crying, hugs, etc. and everyone ending up happy except for the few that don't work out. Do any of the shown companies even exist? I have never seen any sign of any of them. The last show I saw, the owner was definitely mugging for the camera and it all came clear to me. It's fake. I'm through with the show even as I do like Marcus and think he is a great businessman. Sorry they could not be honest about the show instead of phony just to get ratings(and money!).
