PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Poll: Does he know or not?"
LAST EDITED ON 09-24-03 AT 01:49 PM (EST)

Since so many around here know (or think they know) that Matt either does or does not know about the other residents being actors, I thought it would be interesting to tally up what everyone thinks.

Please put a 'Yes' or 'No' in the subject line of your response. 'Yes' meaning that Matt DOES know that the others are actors. 'No' means that Matt DOES NOT know and that the show is in fact as it is advertised.

If you wish to add any comments or reasoning as to why you believe what you do, please put it in the body of the message.

Edited to add: This is NOT a discussion thread - we already have many of those discussing the issue.

1. "No"
Matt isn't that good of an actor, and I don't think the producers would want to make their audience feel foolish by havnig Matt in on the joke.

I think I just decided this. I was convinced after watching the first few episodes that he did, in fact, know.

The more I think about it, the more that just doesn't seem to make sense. I guess it was the Dr Pat incident that finally convinced me.

Joe don't know.

It's not beyond the realm of possibility that he does know, but I haven't seen anything that really indicates that he does know. Based upon my theory that Stone Stanley decided to do the show as The Mole Reversed, I think he doesn't know.

Until I started reading the posts in the last hour or so I thought he didn't know.

But now I am convinced that he knows and the joke is on the actors.

It is too cruel if it is not this way.

Thanks for reading, though ... It completely destroys the gullible, sincere, genuine guy that Matt is if he knew all along.

I, for sure, would not watch a Joe Schmoe 2 (where they will have to go to Norway and Denmark to find people who don't know about the first one) if they pulled one over on us.

This is exactly what the director said it was in EP. 4 ... an experiment. It's a study of one person and their reaction to utter ridiculousness. And it's great TV. It ain't "24" but it's great TV.

I really don't think Matt knows. He is getting too caught up in it for someone that knows it's a joke. Just like the actors screw up sometimes. I would expect Matt to slip up if he really knew. But he doesn't. He really believes he is competing on a reality show with other contestants to win $100,000.

I also vote no. He does not know.. And even if you say it is too cruel to be real those who said it was, look at the world we live in today, and its almost nothing compared to some of the acts of cruelty in this world..

And of course he would win if he sued, he live in America, where you can trip over your OWN CHILD in a store, sue the store and win..

He threatened to sue, hired a lawyer, and when the lawyer read the contract, he dropped him. It was in an article referenced on this site at the beginning.
