Is the Joe Schmo Show still the greatest reality show of all-time?

My favorite (and I know i am in the minority) was Paradise Hotel. It was a drama smorgasbord.

Third season was kinda meh. But the first 2 were gold.

In regards to being a parody of reality shows, it has probably aged really well.

Is there any way they could do a reboot?

"FYI I pissed in the whirlpool"

The Hutch is easily the GOAT reality show persona. And then he went on to become rickety cricket

RC I rarely agree with your opinions on this board but this is the first time I've wanted to cause you bodily harm

I forgot the guys name was "The Hutch".

I love how emotional the guy got after the grizzled veteran was voted off.

Spike TV or whatever it’s called now ran a marathon of all three seasons over a weekend back in January, and I recorded them all, and it was so fun to watch. I actually watched them all as they aired, and it was definitely a good show

That's the first reality show I watched. Wasn't that the one with that Husky chick who bullied everyone?

And that guy at the end who did everything to save this girl from elimination and fell on the sword for her just b/c she pretended to like him - and then she could have shared the money with him at the end but decided to keep it all for herself.

And the guy looked like the biggest fool on national tv.

I think it’s most certainly the most genuine reality show moment and I don’t think it could ever be recreated. The amount of effort that went into essentially one large “gotcha” gag is amazing

It's the most perfect casting decision in history. They literally could not have done any better than Matt Gould.

She was one of the "contestants". I think her character was a child psychologist and she had Matt Gould believing all sorts of psycho-babble.

Yes. Surprisingly, her character was the least funny one of the cast.
