Spy TV was a Great Show

[ken-roberts · 10/10 · 27 June 2006]

I love almost ALL of these kind of shows. Too bad they never last - must be a lack of interest from the general viewing audience, even though I always tune it. This is a cross between Candid Camera (mild) and Scare Tactics (extreme stuff). My favorite scene was when this kid goes to check out a car and the "seller" (who is a race car driver) takes him on a ride he will never forget. Skidding out, 360's, smashed mailboxes and flattened trash cans . . . the old lady walking across the street that is almost hit . . . they left out nothing - even had a fake cop pursuing them, and a final "bust" when the guy stops driving. Hahahah - good stuff.

Great show

This is without a doubt one of the most hilarious shows i've ever seen. I loved the host's deadpan commentary. Spy TV takes Candid camera and Just Kidding! to further heights, such as planting non-lethal explosives in a park and detonating them around people. Another really funny one was when they got one of their staff to pose as one of those crystal-ball jomancers and con people to think that they had super powers.

One of the greatest reality programs i have ever seen.

Funny

I just saw this series and I think it is very funny. It is a lot like "CANDID CAMERA", but what is wrong with that? "CANDID CAMERA" was a great show so I'm glad to see this series. They show people in communities doing humiliating activities and saying hilarious things. WATCH IT!!!

please email me if u know any way to get spy TV first season [e-mail] thank-you. i really enjoyed this show and i knew that it would be a hit and some of those gags i think they really got in trouble for. My favorite one was the store being built on the graveyard and the security guard takes off running and screaming like a girl at the end. Another god one was when they did surgery on the lady and ordered takeout and made the delivery guy hold the utensils. one of those guys hopped out of the second floor window at the end. spy TV the first season is the best hidden camera show of all time. please let me know where i can buy this first season

Lost some of it's charm in the second season, but it's still got some funny moments.

Spy TV did lose some of it's humorous charm in this second season, but I think that it's still pretty funny. One of many situation is when a man who was the youngest child of his family (and who thinks he's the least loved) tricks his mother into thinking that he's in a porta-potty that has been lifted by a helicopter, to be trashed on a mountain. At first I thought it was a bit cruel, but then I realized that the most funny thing was, the mother didn't really react. She just talked on some walkie-talkie, and didn't show any emotions at first. Sorry if it sounds cruel, but it's true! So if you want a few laughs, watch Spy tv. I have a feeling it won't be back for a third season though. BTW, did anyone else notice the new host Ali Landry moves constantly? Her whole body girates back and forth while she's talking. That also is funny. I wonder if they do that on purpose...:)

Funny!

I heard they were gonna make this show less "cruel". I dunno, but it was so funny the first season. Funniest sketch I remember is they made this lady think she was being haunted by a ghost. The funniest part of the sketch was when they had the "ghost" come out in front of her and a co-worker (who was part of the act) not see the ghost and the lady would say it was right in front of her. Ya it was cruel, but the look on her face was priceless. I thought she was gonna have an heart attack of something. LOL. Anyways, good stuff.

I love it!

I love Spy TV! What they pull makes me laugh SO much. The funniest thing that I ever saw is when they had the office assistants (think) that they were the one that knocked over the urn! I don't care for the host, but other than that the show is really great.
