You could make a drinking game out of how many times Willie says "right?" and I've worked in restaurants for 15 years, though drama and crazy things happen, its obviously fake, and like someone above me said--the "hidden" Mic's sure do pick up a lot of clear sound.....The camera angles also just so happen to be perfectly on whatever is going on in the restaurant. But seriously do they have a hidden Mic at every table? And why does this review require 10 lines, that is all I wanted to type... Hmmm OK also the show Mystery Diners is fake, I was watching and saw a friend on it. He had to audition for the part. Much like this show, I'm sure.
