The Joe Schmo Show (Season 1)

Spike TV's hit comes to DVD with everything you'd expect in a reality show; the smug host, the stereotypical contestants ("the blonde virgin," "the bitch," "the guy nobody likes," etc.), and of course, the over-the-top competitions. So what made Joe Schmo one of television's boldest and riskiest experiments? Only one of the contestants was real! Everyone else, including the host, was an actor in on the joke! How far did producers push this reality? Will the actors be convincing enough? Will our unsuspecting "contestant" figure it all out? And if he does figure it out, will he take it in stride or will the Schmo hit the fan?
