Has anyone here watched the show "Operation Repo"? if so, how many of you
laughed your asses off at the episode where the guy laid out the big pumped-up repo guy Matt? I don't know how many people laughed their asses off when he got decked by the guy he was taking the car from...there was another episode when he got tazed for getting in another guys face ( violently, but that is par for the course with him ) He was laying on the ground for a while, and he pissed himself.

For those of you who don't know about this show, it's about repo men who go out on jobs and face confrontational people who don't want their car repossessed, and they would make claims that they paid the finance company..they shouldn't be taking the car. There doesn't seem to be any episodes where the owners don't give any resistance ( because that just wouldn't be good for ratings ) but that's another story. I just find this thing entertaining...maybe it's just me

The one repo guy, Matt, seems like a total dick...and he doesn't seem to make any secret of it

1. I hate to be the spoiler (so don't read this if you don't want one)
but those are re-enactments, as far as I know. Matt's an actor.

5. no spoiler there...I'm aware this is scripted
but if you look at Matt ( the beefed-up guy ) wasn't it funny to see him get knocked out? )

6. Oh, he's the perfect dumbass for the role.
The few times I've seen that show, he's in some shit. Either arrested, flipping a car over or getting knocked the hell out.

2. OK, I'll admit it...I watch!
I think some of the scenes are re-enactments. Like the time when they tried to repo a car where the guys were playing basketball. The guys kind of ambled away, then came back with guns! The repo men split, without the repo! I think they keep Matt for entertainment value. I would have fired him after he flipped that BMW! I liked the "one legged" guy in the wheelchair who was injured in Libya...or was it Iraq???

:rofl:
