rustyjaw Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 That was good! When they were running through the library, I was hoping that a blue ghost would come running back out of the aisle with Pac Man chasing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Monkey Posted December 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 When they were running through the library, I was hoping that a blue ghost would come running back out of the aisle with Pac Man chasing... Ditto. I was waiting for him to shout "oooEEEoooEEEooo!" and chase the ghost. A lost opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Daisy Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 Yep. I figured a blue ghost should have been stationed at some point as well, but this is what happens when you're performing a live prank using college student labor.

Angry the Clown Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 That's brilliant. Be thankful we have no budget to speak of: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/4537748.stm Gah, don't get me started on Space Cadets. I could only stand fifteen minutes of watching an episode before the show became so utterly tedious for those watching at home resulting in a hoax that was neither witty or clever, merely something showing up the stupidity of people these days.... and we have enough Reality TV in the UK doing that already.

iainl Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Have I mentioned the fact that the only remaining funny thing would be to turn the hoax on the producers in a stupendously cruel revenge tactic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Monkey Posted December 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 I heard a rumor that the contestants were also in on the hoax -- thus the joke was on the audience. I've found that usually the joke is ultimately on the audience when it comes to television programming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Monkey Posted December 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 From what I read in that article, it was much, much more involved than Average Joe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry the Clown Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 I heard a rumor that the contestants were also in on the hoax There was an actor or two amongst them posing as a contestant, but no, the actual contestants genuinely were just very naive people taking part. They each ended up with ?25,000 each and the promise of undergoing genuine space training (though obviously without the promise they'll ever be able to go into space). There was a point where viewers were so bored with the whole set up that many were wishing the joke would be on the audience. It probably would have made the whole thing make a little bit more sense.

iainl Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Just because it didn't turn out that way, doesn't mean that they weren't all actors in any case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry the Clown Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Indeed, but then there's conspiracy theories, and out of work actors looking for some attention by putting themselves on a reality show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
