The Joe Schmo Show (2003– )
9/10
Ok until... the end
29 October 2003
The first episodes of the JOE SCHMO SHOW were fun to watch. But then the series ended with a two hour final that was 75% empty hype, and little more than replaying and repeating of past highlights.

Why was the last two hour episode so empty? Because filling up 120 minutes by replaying old footage is 1000X cheaper than shooting and editing new footage.

The show's final would have been much more interesting if the repeated and replayed portions were removed, and new footage was shot six months later so viewers could see if Matt (Joe Schmo) kept in contact with ANY of the actors, and to see if any of the actors keep in touch with each other. It would also be interesting to see what projects the actors might be working on six months after the JOE SCHMO SHOW stopped shooting at the "Lap of Luxury" mansion.

Six month's later, what happened to Matt and his $100,000 winnings? I hope he did not put the money in the pockets of "a professional investor" as he said he would do during the show. There are tax exempt muni bond funds that are very safe and secure and fee-free. Matt (Joe Schmo) should Do-It-Yourself.
