Synopsis:
Hosted by Michael Ian Black (of NBC's "Ed," "SPY
TV"), this show films everyday people with a hidden camera
as they are placed in extreme situations. The camera records
their uncensored and unpredictable reactions. Sometimes, friends
of the victims are getting sweet revenge as they set the victims
up with completely outrageous stunts and crazy pranks. NBC
executives refer to this show as a "mean candid camera." What to expect: One segment's
victim is a young man who thinks he's going for a new car
test drive. Instead, he's trapped with a joy-riding maniac
(a stunt man, we are assured) who pretends to nearly run down
a bicyclist and then flees from a faux police car. "What
are you doing?'' the hysterical passenger shouts. ``Let me
out, dude! Let me out!'' In another ``Spy TV'' segment, helpful
passers-by are made to feel like idiots as they aid a man
whose electric wheelchair is spinning wildly out of control.
