Scripted (opening sentence)

edit

How about instead of "faux" or "fake" we say that Operation Repo is a scripted reality show? I changed it, if you disagree go ahead and change it back. Cool show - the more I watch it though, the harder it is to believe that it's "based on real events". Entertaining none the less. :)

Good idea, and how about we also remove the word "reality." I'll look for an appropriate already existing tv show category.VegKilla (talk) 21:31, 26 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
I changed it to read:

Operation Repo is a scripted American TV show on cable television which airs on truTV.

I also changed the genre from the non-existent "Scripted Reality TV" to "Crime, Drama".VegKilla (talk) 21:59, 26 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

this show is so fake its not even funny its a disgrace to latinos —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.190.76.150 (talk) 05:53, 1 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Whether or not the show is "obviously fake" or "poorly acted" doesn't matter. We need a reliable source saying that the show is scripted and the people on it are actors. If the show itself has some sort of disclaimer, I'm sure there's a way to site that. 64.119.55.246 (talk) 01:28, 23 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
The word "scripted" or "faux" or "fake" should definitely be added. If you really think about it and watch the show, you would notice this readily. However, for readers of an encyclopedia entry, the words "docudrama" and reference to truTV's tagline are not enough information. Saebvn (talk) 17:37, 6 September 2010 (UTC)Reply


This show is Actually REAL. My friend got REPO'd from them 5 months ago. I do believe they fake some of them but they actually REPO'd my friends car so maybe you should remove the ficticious part. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zeeinstinct (talkcontribs) 05:49, 16 March 2010 (UTC) Zeeinstinct (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Reality?

edit

Given that this show openly declares that it's company is fictitious, that the situations presented are scripted reenactments... does this show actually qualify for the genre 'Reality'? -68.209.116.39 (talk) 01:46, 9 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

"The disclaimer shown at the beginning of the program indicates very clearly that stories that are portrayed in the program are based on real events. the names of the characters were changed in order to protect their identities...and some honor.

While most people claim that the dis-claimer states that it is a re-enactment, that is clearly not the case."... by virtue of using the word 'stories', and 'based on real events'... this actually DOES state that it's a reenactment. This statement is false. -68.209.116.39 (talk) 00:19, 1 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Question

edit

Is there a reason why the names of the people on the show are not listed as they were in previous revisions of this article? It seems sloppy. Was there a decision to remove the list and description of who the characters were? Sean118 (talk) 03:04, 14 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Look through the page history and find out why they were removed. If there is no reason, then put them back. A description of each character would definitely be an improvement to the article, and is not the kind of thing that requires a reference, as long as it is accurate.VegKilla (talk)
I suggest that the following descriptions of each character be added.
The cast are a bunch of interesting characters in their own right. All are quite overweight, some bordering on morbidly obese.
Luis, who owns the repo company, is a former Marine and comes across as an exasperated father figure, perplexed at the antics of his crew.
Lyndah, Luis's daughter, is very much "daddy's little girl" but more than able to hold her own against difficult customers. Luis is very protective of Lyndah and more than ready to beat anyone to a pulp who dares lay a finger on his daughter.
Sonia, Luis's sister, is a large grotesque woman, barely able to stand erect under the weight of her bulky, buxom figure. Always dressed completely in black, including black combat boots, and with bleached blonde hair tied up in a variety of pigtails and ponytails, and with various piercings adorning every facial orifice, Sonia never hesitates to speak her mind in loud, pompous tones that require much bleeping on the soundtrack. Even so, one gets the impression that Sonia would be fun to know over a few pitchers of beer and plates of hot buffalo wings.
Froy, formerly Sonia's husband, is a roly-poly but muscular little guy with a smile on his face, a twinkle in his eye, and a weakness for young hot Asian women. There is an ongoing love-late relationship between Froy and Sonia that makes for great plot interest whenever the two of them are dispatched together on a repo call. However, beneath his happy-go-lucky demeanor, Froy has his share of demons to deal with, which has become evident in several recent plot twists.
Matt, the team's "enforcer", is a middle-aged guy with all the charm and charisma of an over-the-hill professional wrestler who can't accept the fact that his glory days have come and gone. Quick-tempered and short-fused, Matt can always be relied on to come to blows with difficult customers. But under all his bluff and bravado, Matt is just a cry-baby, running away with his tail between his legs whenever a customer he has provoked has the gall to fight back.

"Fake"

edit

The article currently reads that "Operation Repo is a fake reality show..." Since the show is so ridiculous that it's unlikely someone would mistake it for real for very long, maybe the use of the word "fake" is too harsh.

I think the word "fake" should stay until we can come up with a better word. Please leave suggestions here. Operation Repo is a show where actors pretend to be members of a reality show. VegKilla (talk) 16:20, 21 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

This article brings sham to wikipedia
Sure I know that some stuff on wikipedia isn't true but come on, I believe that this show is "real" and not a "fake". Obviously the folks who edit this article are going off of speculation and there own person thoughts. I really think if someone can't clean up this article and put up sources then it should be deleted.

I agree completely, this is libel with no sources.HellinaBucket (talk) 16:01, 30 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

The only thing real about this show is that it is an actual show on TV. The content of this show is obviously scripted because of the bad acting. Just check out the episode where Matt is beat up with pool cues, they don't even touch him. The planned feature film only solidifies that the show is scripted. Need I also mention that Matt is a trainer with FitTV. Nomad2u2001 (talk) 16:39, 30 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

As far as I know, "fake reality" or "faux reality" is not the name of a television genre, or at least, not a widely used name. Of course, if there's a reliable source referring to the show as "faux reality," that would be a different matter. I understand the objection to referring to it as a 'reality show' when it isn't filmed reality, too. I think that simply calling it a 'television show' in the lede is a reasonable compromise. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 19:48, 30 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

I can comment as to the "reality" of one particular segment. They were repossessing a Porsche from a doctor. They indicated that they were on Burbank Blvd. in the City of Burbank, and they were. The building involved, however was not, and for at least the last 20 years, has not been a medical office. It is, however, the offices of NABET, the broadcast technicians and camera man's union. Bstevens1321 (talk) 02:00, 20 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

I Can comment on this programme's reality, I asked the agent at Luis Pizzarro's company ETA recovery 'Nico' to comment on the reality , he insisted it is a reality tv show and is very real, such as Matt Burch being blinded by an exterminator, the many appearences of the L.A.P.D, Matt Burch Being Deafened by a Flashbang and Froyland Terecero Being wounded when Matt pepper sprayed the R.O of a Vehicle up for repossetion and having numerous burns on his face while doing commentary but not while on the repo. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.44.159.53 (talk) 16:11, 5 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

What about "mocumentary"? it's a well established genre and audiences are familiar with what it entails; it is filmed in a documentary style but is completely fictional following a script or a loose concept allowing for actors to improvise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.144.182.23 (talk) 11:40, 5 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

You mean mockumentary? Those are by definition not intended to be taken seriously; whereas (as the history of this article demonstrates) the producers of this show like to pretend that it's realistic and "reality TV" just because they occasionally incorporate real-life tidbits into their stories. --Orange Mike | Talk 15:23, 5 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Spelling Errors

edit

This is my first submission; sorry if I do it wrong! I just wanted to point out there are misspelled words under the heading "Offbeat Moments". In the eighth bullet down, "accessable" should read "accessible". Please change "handicap-accessable van" to "handicap accessible van" (please note also the removal of the hyphen). Additionally, the last bullet reads "Matt was tazered..." Please change to "Matt was tasered by an old drunk." Thanks! 2thGirl (talk) 04:49, 28 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Thank-you for your help! In the future, if you are sure something is incorrect, then be bold and feel free to fix it! It turns out that another user noticed the same mistake you did, and already fixed "accessible." As for the word "tazered," that is how that word is spelled in the country where this tv show is made, so that has been left the way it was. Thanks again!VegKilla (talk) 05:04, 30 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
  • Actually, the original device is a TaSer, made by Taser International. Taser is the correct spelling and the one used in most police reports and legal documents. The tazer version of the word evolved from companies that are trying to sound like Taser and were founded after the original Taser Intl. This isn't so much an American v. British matter as a matter of people not knowing the difference and using the tazer version of the word often enough to make it look common. Niteshift36 (talk) 07:42, 5 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

This show is pathetic and dumb as hell. I think wikipedia should go one step further and delete the show from existence.

New idea to accomodate both opinions.

edit

We need to make sure in the show description we leaveit as a reality based show. What I suggest is a Seperate subheading for criticisms. All reality TV starts with reality then goes through an extensive editing process which takes away from the realness. if we do this we can still get in the article it is sometimes over thetop and as "real" as any reality tv show after editing.HellinaBucket (talk) 17:47, 30 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Except that it doesn't fit that category. "Reality" television starts with actual people and their actual behavior, however manipulated or manipulative, recorded by the cameras; then selectively edits the record of that behavior to fit the producers' agenda. This program, on the other hand, is actors "recreating" events that supposedly happened, with changes to make them more dramatic. The two are not identical. --Orange Mike | Talk 18:53, 30 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

How should we proceed then? the show is based on real events the character names have been changed to protect their privacy and what little left was the dignity. I understand what you are saying but it doesn't really fit eitherHellinaBucket (talk) 20:08, 30 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

To clarify I agree with you and i mean the show itself doesn't really fit.HellinaBucket (talk) 20:09, 30 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Then don't use the word "reality" to describe the show. No biggie. Saying it's fictitious, and looks fake, but tries to simulate reality: that's criticism, not libel. --Orange Mike | Talk 20:49, 30 April 2009 (UTC)Reply


C'mon, let's assume good faith here! Hellina seems more naive than anything else. Your language is a bit over the top, Anden. Remember, all of Hollywood has trouble distinguishing reality from a good story; look at the "acting President" they stuck us with back in 1980. --Orange Mike | Talk 14:41, 1 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

That this show is scripted, consists of actors, and is as real as Reno:911 is not an opinion. Epsisodes of Law and Order are sometimes based on real events, but that doesn't make the show any more real. The level of truth that can be interpreted from a single handed account may be called "based on a true story" but never could the presentation, years after the fact, by actors in a scripted situation, be considered "true" itself. Because some people are tricked into thinking this is real, doesn't mean the Wikipedia article should reflect their POV. Promontoriumispromontorium (talk) 21:57, 26 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Be conscious of the Google summary and people who have a conflict of interest involving this article

edit

Anyone who, for any reason, wishes to display this show in a good light, will be concerned with what appears when you type "Operation Repo" into Google.

Please be aware that extra words in the first sentence of this article can be deliberately used to push relevant facts off of the Google summary. For example, before my edits of today, the Google summary for this article read:

"Operation Repo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Operation Repo is a American English-language TV show on cable television which began airing on truTV in 2008. It is based on a Spanish language program, ...
"en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Repo - 27k - Cached - Similar pages"

Of course, when searching for "Operation Repo" on Google, the web-page on trutv.com appears first, as it should because that is the official page, but this article, including its first sentence, appears second, and everyone editing this article understands the added responsibility imposed by that publicity.VegKilla (talk) 00:21, 10 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Sources for "scripted" claim?

edit

Hello. Can someone please tell me how it is we ascertained the show is scripted, or fake? I mean yes, it is pretty obvious at times that it may be staged, but certain instances seem very real... Regardless, I do not wish to get into discussion of why or why not it is fake, but in accordance with WP policies, I want the statement in the article "Operation Repo consists of scripted re-enactments where the team is often confronted by actors portraying debtors and police officers in the repossessions." to be sourced, proved or somehow justified or it should be removed. WildHorsesPulled (talk) 21:02, 2 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

It's in the disclaimers. "stories that are portrayed in the program are based on real events" - "stories" = "scripted". That falls in the "water is wet" category. --Orange Mike | Talk 15:41, 3 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
If they took time to read source 1 it's all there. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 15:43, 3 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

"stories" = "scripted" is a false generalization: Not every story is scripted. For example, a local television news team can do a story about a real event. They don't use a script, they just film what they can film and comment on it, then edit it to their liking. The 'story' part is all the additional footage such as the 'interviews' with the people (the clips where they comment on what you just saw or are going to see). They call it a story, because it is edited and 'enhanced' with the additional footage. There is no authoritative proof that it is scripted. Saying it is, is nothing but speculation, and as it is written now it is not worthy of wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.104.56.15 (talk) 03:10, 5 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

its official... the show is fake

edit

Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (which has been enacted in all 50 states with minor deviations), does allow a private party to make a "self-help" repossession when a debtor defaults on an obligation. However, such a repossession must not constitute a "breach of the peace." A breach of the peace can be something as simple as taking the collateral over the debtor's verbal objection. Any use of physical force or intimidation is always a breach of the peace. Therefore, this show is fake (or very veeeery VEEEEERRRRYYY dramatized). Cheers.

It is a re-enactment

edit

I have had a look at the intro and I believe the key is in the words "based on real events" and "Portrayed" so I think that tells you all you need to do.

They are licensed repo men. I would like to address the opening line. It is hugely improved with it's current wording over the previous or new one. I do no understand how it is promotional by saying it gives the reader or viewer a look into the world of repossession. I think Orange Mike may have been slightly off mark here. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 14:14, 22 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
The phrase "a look inside" implied (falsely) that the viewer is getting an actual look at the realities of the repossession process. That's pretty much the opposite of the truth, and in my opinion is promotional in nature because it succumbs to the producers' pretence that this is "reality" television. --Orange Mike | Talk 15:42, 22 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
It also follows it up with "the series is filmed in a cinema verité style, but consists of scripted and dramatized reenactments performed by actors. The show is filmed by recreating scenes which show the cast conducting repossession of automobiles for finance companies." Hell In A Bucket (talk) 15:47, 22 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
I still feel the phrase "a look inside" is both inaccurate and promotional in flavor. --Orange Mike | Talk 16:29, 22 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

The shows is fake.. if you can't just watch 5 min of this show and see that.. you have some issues. First off, no repo man has as many confrontations as these guys do...99% of repos are jump in the car when they are not looking (sleeping, eating in resteraunt), use lender supplied key and drive car away..(most of the time you don't even bring the tow truck and just take a car and a second driver for the repo) In fact, in most states is against the law to cause a breach of peace while repo'ing a vehicle and the repo man can be arrested or fined if a repo turns into a melee like on this show.. Generally they pick up the car at 3AM when you're sleeping..everyone has to sleep sometime. If you hide the car they will pick it up while your at work or follow you to see where you put it. If they can't get it they just move on to the next one as there is plenty so why waste your time. noone does any of the shananigans they show on this show. Its not even a re-enactmant, its a overly dramatized re-anactment.. as in yes someone had a pick up repossed but every thing else is made up drama.. the most interesting thing that happens to a repo man, is someone sees you walking around a nieghborhood looking at vin #'s and the cops show up guns drawn until you show them the repo slip.. -Tracer9999 (talk) 22:05, 4 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

OR

edit

I've tagged this is Original Research, since there seems to be a large part of this based on broad interpretation of fairly vauge statements then presented as fact here. The sourcing to a blog of it being totally reenactment fails WP:RS/WP:V, the using the opening credit that stuff is based on (with names changed) to reach a conclusion that it is purely over dramitised reenactment is nothing more that original research. Having seen the show I'm quite happy to believe that it's not "real", however that's my opinion and has no place in an encylopedia article. --82.7.40.7 (talk) 22:41, 9 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

I've restored the tag again, as apparently the editor removing it isn't willing to actually discuss it here. I'll repeat what is said immediately above. The statement at the beginning of the show is very vague and certainly doesn't say all that is being said here. Conclusions are being drawn from that very vague statement, that is synthesis. --82.7.40.7 (talk) 20:17, 7 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

I myself can go make a page/group/account and name it Fred Flintstone or Neil Armstrong and say that Barack Obama is their cousins and do so without identification.

Of course - Facebook is not a good source unless the page is confirmed as official, and even then only for very limited purposes, but at some point you sometimes just have to WP:IAR and make a judgement, and that's what I did. The article is protected, so these guys can't edit it, and there's enough indication on the official site that it could be right to be WP:BOLD and just make the edit for them.

Aye, mis-use of the indents. That was mainly directed to the anon's above. :) I agree with WP:IAR here and support your edit, it was just a heads up if those IP's decided to make an account and/or contribute further :) JguyTalkDone 15:57, 3 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
