This show is like in high school when the “popular kids” pretended to befriend and gas up a “weird kid” when in reality they were just laughing at them behind their back. All of these judges and producers peaked in high school for sure
In 7th grade I was voted class president and was really happy and surprised when they announced the results and then when I went to the front to say thank you, a classmate stood up and yelled "HAHAHA WE JUST PRANKED YOU, NO ONE WOULD REALLY WANT U AS A CLASS PRESIDENT HAHAHAHA ITS A JOKE" but the teacher didn't understand what that was supposed to mean and we couldn't retake them anyways so instead it was just a really awkward year for me.
This show feels like my school bullies grew up and decided to bring their combined creativity on live television
yeah this show just felt like i was in middle school again getting bullied for being 'weird' lol, i was physically cringing at how awful these people are
@@Dinanysos wtf that’s such a weird way to prank someone
@@Dinanysos “we pranked you by voting for you”
@@Dinanysos HAHA GET VOTED FOR LOSER EPIC PRANK GOT EM! Wait a second
The make-a-wish part absolutely KILLED me. What the fuck 00's TV.
It feels like they were making the show up as they went along and had pull the make-a-wish thing out of nowhere. I refuse to believe they had the forethought to think that up from the start
This was pretty bad the whole time but when the make a wish kid part came up i was like holy shit thats awful, but fucking hilarious
I know but I prefer 00s Tv than the garbage we have today that try to push down our throuts diversity and political messages. Like Im mexican and I understand that not every friend group has 1 person of each race.
I'm glad I wasn't old enough to remember this I'd probably be more fucked up then I already am but probably more so
@@victorgracida8580 damn, nobody asked
The guy wasn't even bad at singing, they just chose him cause he looks nerdy. This is just high school level bullying on a national level.
I was serious vibing with him
@@commando_barrage501 Right? He was hella on key and had rhythm. Both contestants could be successful in entertainment in their own ways and it's so brutal to think about how this like.. Humiliation affected them. They both literally do have entertainment abilities, let alone terrible, nobody deserves this.
Dude if he held a concert I’d go, I was vibing every time he did his little dances with the songs
All kinds of musicians look nerdy. Looking nerdy is actually an asset with some audiences. Songs like "Creep" don't go down nearly as well if you're handsome. The second guy was just nervous, he needs to learn to let go and sell himself.
lets be honest he doesnt look "nerdy" bro looks legit scary. he seems really nice though and i do feel for him.
Not the judges using this as an excuse to just sexually harass women wtf is this 😭

For real dude it’s a joker moment…” Inviting me on the show. You just wanted to make fun of me”
it’s staged
What do you get... when you cross a talented singer... with a society that abandons him?!
that guy totally freaked and now kills superstars and producers
Why did it take them so long realize they had the wrong guy when he wasn’t Irish at all I’m crying
LMFAOOO i didn't realize either until kelsey said it
GIRL SAME was like why does he have an American accent
When she said he's bitter cos Westlife didn't take off!!
@@altostreeter hahaha, first video I take up the second I come in after smoking, holy shit I was confused.
They also look completely different 😂
She was trying to save face by laughing along with it but honestly, it's so satisfying to be frank. In 9th grade it got out that I had a crush on this popular boy and everyone thought it was a freaking riot. In the middle of science class, I raised my hand to ask a question and the whole class burst into fits of giggling. My teacher was confused obviously and trying to play into it asking if he had a booger or something. In a clear, dispassionate voice I said, "No. They're laughing at me." It went dead quiet instantly. The point is, laughing along only makes mean-spirited people more comfortable. Letting them feel the tension created by their cruelty is the best reaction. It's a lesson I carried with me.
one i learned as an adult. probably the biggest thing i wish i could go back and tell my younger self. i respect that you were able to learn that rather than internalizing how they were treating you
My whole life my dad has been telling really inappropriate jokes, sarcastic humor targeted at one person or a group people whether it be racist, sexist, or homophobic. He’s the type of person who, when you say your going out with friends “jokingly” responds, “I didn’t know you had friends?!”
I spent a lot of my life pretending to laugh at jokes like these. I was a teenager, he was an authority figure and I didn’t know how to stand up to him.
Slowly as I got older I would make my laughter more and more fake, trying to make it obvious that I didn’t actually find these jokes funny.
Several years ago I started not laughing. Often times this is met with something like “Oh come on, I was just joking!” To which I almost always calmly say “I know I just don’t find it funny.”
Where things go from there typically varies, sometimes he doubles down on his just joking, sometimes he “apologizes” and says he needs to stop joking; his apologies almost always include a but, never include attempting to stop the behavior, and typically include chastising me for getting upset in the first place, it’s something I guess.
Lately though, his response is defensive again, like “I don’t get what’s the problem; I’ve always been like this.”
This brings me to the main point of my story, I highly regret spending most of my life pretending to laugh when my dad was making jokes at mine and other people’s expense because now he thinks the problem is with me, not with him because I “suddenly” changed and started having a problem with him even though he’s always been this way.
I implore everyone out there, if you don’t find something funny, have the courage not to laugh.
@@MaryAlice08 he sounds funny to me
@@MaryAlice08 the "I didn't know you had friends" joke is funny. Though if you were bullied and didn't have friends for a while I could see it could hit a nerve.
@@em84c well first I’d say I think a lot of people probably felt bullied and alone at some point in their lives.
Also young kids don’t really understand sarcasm, you can explain that it’s a joke and not serious but it’s still likely to effect them when you’re poking fun at their weaknesses and insecurities. I think whether or not you have friends, especially when you’re a kid, the insecurity that you’re unlikable is a common one.
Also I’m not exaggerating when I say he says this every time anyone says something involving the concept of friends. All 30+ years of my life. I honestly don’t understand how *he* still finds it funny the billionth time.
I was in 7th grade in the mid 80's...A group of "popular" kids got 2 guys who were mentally challenged to have a break dance competition in front of everyone in the gymnasium during lunch period. People were throwing coins at them and cheering them on and laughing. I'm 50 now and I still remember this as one of the most cruel and heartless things I've ever seen. That's what this show was.
It's a Prank show. Get over it soyboy
@@richcampbell6808 How about you get over your need to call people soyboys over the Internet to feel good about yourself? It's an opinion. He's allowed to have it. He's also allowed to feel empathy, have you heard of it?
Okay, I came on a little strong, oops 💀 I was irritated. But y'all get my point.

Love how these shows were just like “sexual harassment is totally cool and funny.”
how is this sexual harassment
@@bongman1037 at the very least that one dude was being creepy af
Ah, but, if ur bad at singing, it’s totally ok.
@@bongman1037 so you think commenting on women’s breasts.... isn’t sexual harassment?
Bc it is
See the Hot or Not show was fucked up but people knew, this is the saddest cruelest thing I’ve ever witnessed in my whole life.
literally
I've heard they did lie on hot or not saying it was a modeling show, but I don't know how true it was
The show was fake. Pretty much all of the "reality" tv shows in that era were fake. The blonde girl that "won" is an actress. In the same year she was in an episode of NYPD Blue.
Its hella funny
The fact that we also still have pageant shows is to me an argument we (or media) have learned nothing from mistakes like Hot or Not, and similar shows.
Jamie wasn’t even bad! She was just too extra and needs some vocal lessons. Study matching pitch and she’d probably be fine in no time tbh. I feel so bad for her she’s so chipper through it all
Yeah, I think she had potential if she just had some lessons and some more experience. This show is just super cruel though.
i thought the same, she has potential but she doing too much with her voice.
yeah she wasnt even that bad, just needed to work on vocals, appearance, pitch, tone, range, dancing lessons, choreography, acting, voice and her tempo!! bruh anyone on this show could "probably be fine in no time" if they took proper lessons. tf.
@@newp0rtyou just said she wasn’t bad then listed 10 things bad about her 😂 she’s not talented, it’s ok to admit
@@starrsimon9 They were being VERY sarcastic.
This is legitimately psychotic. It's so malicious, I'm surprised they didn't have suicides because of their actions. I can guarantee these people had ptsd like issues after this.
Let's not talk about how they told everyone in the audience that the people performing were sick and this was their dying wish - so that they wouldn't get booed off stage. Adds a WHOLE new layer of fucked up
NO FUCKING way

@@spookysins4784 at around 0:43
This show is the definition of gaslighting.
Yep. This people will have confidence issues big enough to don’t even trust their own reflection in the mirror. This beyond fucked up level.
I had a friend who went on American idol as one of the “bad singers”. Shes actually talented, she was just young and didn’t quite know how to fully control her voice, plus her nerves would get the best of her. So passing the auditions gave her this huge confidence boost, only to then be annihilated on the TV audition. She never sang again. So sad ;-;
So sociopathic
Lmao
imagine thinking that you're making a dying child's wish come true but you're actually unknowingly helping to publicly humiliate someone
I would sue. as an audience member
Surely you could sue as a contestant for psychological harm @@noface3641
Actually a good example of how the intention behind an action can be more important than the outcome in moral evaluations. I'm gonna have to remember this for future discussions about that!
@@KreeZafi just use the example of someone falling and spilling coffee on you vs pouring coffee on you out of anger...ppl who argue that intentions don't matter are the dumbest types of people.
I wouldn't even be mad tbh
I love that every time Cody really likes one of Kelsey’s jokes he says “nice”
SAME
Thats romance
it’s so cute how he loves her so much
Yeah it’s wicked
It's frictionless
I, no joke, genuinely loved the energy the guy was bringing to his second performance. The singing wasn't that bad and his energy pumped me up. I wish the best for both the contestants.
Yeah agree. I am worried about how they are doing. They did not deserve any of this.
dude he was so good
He kind of reminded me of weird al yankovic
After reading some articles and light research-
Jamie: still believed she can be a superstar, was a little annoyed but ultimately says she’s glad she was able to get a makeover, stay in Hollywood for a couple weeks and received dancing lessons-she said she’d probably do it again even if she was in on the joke. Says she doesn’t need a good voice to be a superstar and had suspicions the show was fishy when she saw Mario for the first time, stating that “he didn't really have the image that was, um, you know, kind of... [Struggles to think of a nice way to say Mario's Swan material, then finally blurts out:] I thought he would be kind of like Clay Aiken!” before deciding she was going to win and blowing him off.
Mario: it seems a little traumatized and in denial, tried to convince people they really were terminally ill to cope; eventually though, decided to keep trying with his dream believing his voice really was good enough, he might be divorced and looking for work-was a truck driver for a little bit. Mario enjoys Dance Dance Revolution, My Little Ponies; dislike Trump and radical feminism and HATES the producers of this show.
Thank you!! How long after this show was this? If you know. I wonder if she still feels the same.
@@fxerie the article I found said this interview was basically right after she won the show-she was signed to a record company as apart of the prize buuuut they never released the CD and I guess she just fizzled out of obscurity :,) I honestly found a bigger online footprint on Mario than I could Jamie besides a few nameless, extra roles she’s done here or there on her IMDB so I guess she’s still chasing stardom!
Mario sucks irl too as I can see lmao
Typical Reddit user
I'm so glad neither committed suicide...
Mario would KILL at a supportive karaoke bar. Total vibe
The worst part is they never really fully revealed the prank to her, they were just vaguely like "youre not actually the BEST singer in the united states okay moving on look how much these people love you"
Also I'm pretty sure the prize of a record deal for hundreds of thousands of dollars was real and she did get to record it. Of course it didn't go anywhere, but she definitely got a better deal out of it than the other finalists. If she had been serious about pursuing music she could have saved that money, developed her voice for a couple years and then make a sweet comeback as a country chick - she did have the looks and charisma.
@@DodaGarcia awe, well that’s nice to know!
I feel so sorry for her. She was lied to, sexually harrased, betrayed and humiliated on TV. She didn't deserve that shit.
She should sue them!
@@vivenomada ikr
The show was fake, and the contestants acted
@@garlic6969 do you have sources ? i'd like to regain faith in humanity
@@k0lpA Most shows are fake bro
If you listen closely, you'll notice that for My Heart Will Go On, they had Jamie start in an EXTREMELY high key! It's much higher than the original, to the point where even professional singers would have a hard time reaching those notes! This makes me think that she sounded pretty good in the original key, so the producers made her sing this monstrosity. Because, you know, why leave these contestants with a shred of dignity?
Nah. She just has 0 contr so the tones were random.
I feel worse for the girl. The dude seemed like he straight up doing it for himself, he had a good confidence. The girl seemed to really get her confidence from the judges praise. Felt harsher.
Idk I feel bad for both of them. But the girl is conventionally hot and super outgoing so she probably has had a better time in life in general. The guy is kind of a funky looking shy dude so I imagine he hasnt had as easy as a time, socially. Just making assumptions, but it's sad either way.
@@Goat.Cheese well those 'outgoing ' people you see probably base more of their happiness on other people and the fact that all these ppl did this , is gonna be traumatic.
@@Goat.Cheese Just because someone is conventionally attractive and appears outgoing does not mean they will handle this better. She could've been suicidal before the show and we would've never known.
@@TonyStark-kd5ti her life still was better than his before the show, he looks like he dealt with enough shit to not care what's happening, she thinks she's a great singer when she could just record herself and hear she's not, they both got themselves in that situation.
@@melodi996 Source that her life was better?
This is really bad. They chose the most vulnerable people they could find and just made fun of them being hopeful :/
A double platinum recording artist and Grammy nominated rapper are the most vulnerable people they could find?😐
@@Pataganja i think they meant the contestants, not the judges
@@sophiamel844 yeah I’m dumb
Still funny
@Jackson Five ok
I feel like everyone is saying they feel worse for the guy cause the girl is attractive, but i feel bad for both of them equally. The girl was just positive and had a can-do attitude. She smiled through being sexually harassed by some neck beard for her entire time in the "competition". And at the very end she gets told on center stage, flashing lights pointed at her, in front of hundreds of people in a live audience, that she sucks. And she STILL had to put on a smiling face through it all cause what tf else is she supposed to do??? I loved the guy and i feel so horrible for him, but i honestly would have rather gotten told in a small room and had my reaction cut. What they did to him was a disgusting prank. What they did to her was Carrie with the pigs blood levels of fucked up.
No I 100% agree with this, most people (including Cody and Kelsey) saying not feeling bad for the girl is probably because she is attractive and had a positive attitude towards things. What happened to her is equally (or comparably worse) bad compared to the guy. What a horrible thing to do to a human being :(
i agree what they did to her was equally as bad as what they did to him. but to only feel bad for him bc he’s unattractive is sexist because it’s just treating her as an object to laugh at rather than an actual person who would hurt by all of this just as equally as a man
Agreed! That kind of upset me because I couldn't stop thinking how much genuine trauma this must have caused the girl, why wouldn't we feel terrible for her?
@@okaytessa2481 I think we generally assume that attractive people will be fine because they always have their looks to fall back on. But we forget that everyone is equally human, regardless of how they look, and attractive people experience just as much trauma as the rest of us.
The reason they felt bad for the guy more had nothing to do with looks its just that the guy was more humble than her she called herself a star at 4:58 which is cocky while he didn't really say anything. I mostly feel bad for her because of the disgusting things the judges were saying.
Why do I feel like that one judge/producer has a few Sexual Harassment lawsuits under his belt?
Also the fact that Kelsey made a whole bit around the fact that the host was bitter about Westlife never taking off is so funny because as an Irish person, they were one of the biggest groups in Ireland throughout the lates 90s and early 2000s and literally everyone knows who they are 😂
i think the funniest thing about it is that its not brian mcfadden from westlife, its clearly just an american guy with a similar name and it took them way too long to realise
@@abaighmartin8358they look pretty similar tbh
This is basically the plot of joker, amazed none of them murdered the judges
*kim k voice*
Its what they deserved. 😌
i thought the same thing , even if it sounds crazy i’m surprised not one person tried to go after them after being completely humiliated infront of millions of people watching
"What do you get when you cross a tone-deaf blonde girl with an audience that laughs at her and treats her like trash? You get what you fucking deserve!"
And then she tries to hit Mariah Carey notes or something and everyone dies of second-hand embarrassment.
No. This is dinner for schmucks. Literally dinner for schmucks. Good movie. Steve Carrell, Paul Rudd, Zach Galifianakis. Rich dudes plan a dinner for losers just to make fun of them. It ends better than this show that’s for sure.
Maybe that one guy's buddy Eric was on this show.
Imagine being an actually good singer, but you stop trying because of these people.
FR that’s so fucked up.
Or in their case, not being talented but actually having the will to learn and get better and you get put in this shit.
There's usually a lot of self doubt most creators have, and so this could totally happen
If you let some c-list “celebrities” crush your dreams that easily, I reckon you didn’t have the juice to begin with. 🤷🏻♀️
And then you find out months later what the competition actually was.
i’d love a “where are they now” because i NEED to know the psychological impacts of this
I remember back in the 00s that pop culture in general was just really mean. There was this edgy, "we don't give a fuck" attitude to everything. Whether it was celebrity coverage or reality shows, there was a prevailing mean spiritedness.
I mean it was funny, but you felt gross after
TV content was really like that, and also in teen movies and shows there was such an admiration for the mean girl, Blair Waldorf / Regina George were popular characters.... Everybody knows they're mean but for kids it was so cool back then i remember it well, overall it was mean as hell, we've gotten better now but there's so many other issues we didn't have so i guess it's life
I love that Cody advertises therapy right before showing us this
Its also mental health day
@Pearl Goldenberg oyy
Mental health is important when these people got bullied world wide lol
We need it. Please help.
^^^^This^^^^
Omfggggg the fact that they said they were terminally ill so the audience wouldn’t laugh is so diabolical
I completely forgot about this part! Good lord...
Public humiliation is one of the worst forms of punishment, ever. For them to reveal this to her in front of a whole crowd... I can not
i feel bad for the guy but idk i definitely feel worse for the girl since she not only had her dreams crushed in front of the entire audience but also the entire season had to put up with that one judge non-stop sexually harassing her. obviously though none of the contestants were treated well. they were all gaslit on the national stage and had their dreams crushed based on a lie.
The girl singing "Like a Virgin" could probably be a good singer if she didn't over embellish her voice. If she did country, she'd be pretty good.
Totally, like she wasn’t that bad in the first round
Plus, the guys on stage performance wasn’t terrible. At least he was on key and had rhythm. I can’t deal with how much lying they were willing to do because they wanted to make a tv show
Yeah I think her technique (going too deep and holding onto every other word) was what made her sound messy but she could be good at a Cher/Christina Agulera type low voice singer. I’m not musically trained at all so don’t know how to properly describe it 😭
I actually really liked her, too
anyone can sing country
this show feels like someone making a psychological case study
yup. Like that prison experiment thing which well.. went real well
Yeah an unethical one that the IRB did not sanction
A lot of these shows do
@@emilyb.8219 Can they use the results though?
There was one very similar where kids with a stutter were told they didn’t have a stutter to see if it improved and kids without a stutter were told they had one to see if that’s what caused them. The kids with one did improve, but the kids without one would start to have trouble reading or just stop talking out of fear of stuttering because the researchers would keep telling them they stuttered 😭😭
i forgot how much the 2000s really were just the EPITOME of bullying
when she doesn't have the lyrics written on her hands:
_FAR NEAAAAR_
aw :( that poor finalist guy, he looked so happy and proud of himself, he probably felt like he was finally doing something, just to be humiliated in front of millions, i felt SO SAD watching that
Mario? Yeah he was the saddest case, bc like 5 years later he was still lurking in forums justifying himself and saying he was set up to make his voice look bad when he's truly a good singer. It's depressing.
yeah me too because who couldnt tell that he 100% struggled in life and then this happened to him :( I hope he is okay even if this happened to him

shhhhhhh
@@bluephoenix2783 oh sorry, you take that back he’s sensitive
poor girl had to smile at that judges creepy comments and stand in front of a crowd that big to be publically humiliated like that.... i feel so bad for both of them honestly this show was a nightmare to sit through 😭
One time in 6th grade my friends and I wanted to joke with this kid who didn’t have many friends and was kind of weird, that my friend wanted to go out with him, and he got so happy and was like “really?” Like he was surprised and excited, and in that moment I realized what a horrible thing we just did, when I had to say “sorry no we were just joking” and he looked down sadly and said “oh ok… nice joke” GOSH!!!!! I wish I had never been apart of that cruel joke. Kids and adult-child’s can be so unbelievably mean, not thinking how they actually effect another person.
The girl on the show doesn’t even have an irredeemably terrible voice, she’s just totally untrained and trying to sound like a pop star. Her timbre isn’t offensive, with training and a simpler style she could have a very pleasant singing voice. A show where people who are like these people and have terrible habits and big egos learning to actually sing properly could actually maybe be interesting. But this was just a mess.
Ok thebadpoet
I thought she wasn’t that bad like idk she did just need training
Exactly what I was thinking. She also seemed like a really nice girl. A lot of the folks on American Idol have bad voices AND big egos, so they seriously need to be taken down a few pegs. But the girl and guy on this show did not deserve any of this! I almost cried at the end during the reveal, it was so brutal : (
As a singer, she was stylistically awful and her singing My Heart Will Go On? Totally started off in the wrong key and that’s not even the worst part. It’s one thing if you sing the right notes in the wrong key but she was completely off and clearly tone deaf. Even with that small chance that you could train her voice, you can’t fix the fact that she’s tone deaf

This is mad funny I wish everything wpuld be the same
The fact that really makes me mad is that most of those people that turn out to be the clowns of the competition aren't the wannabe stars that have an overflowing ego, they can potentially give a good stage performance, but just lack a proper guidance. But no, people enjoy humiliating the heck out of others because it makes them feel better about their own lives. And this is very, very sad.
the house and car shopping? the make-a-wish lie?? omg they add a whole new level of messed up
the like a virgin girl wasn't that horrible, she just really has no idea how to control her voice
That's what I thought too
i thought the same thing. i was thinking that she was too good to continue with the show
the first song was definetly better, but its clear she also cant hold a pitch or rythmn
exactlyy its strong too
they could have made this a genuinely good show by taking these "bad singers" and then spend the rest of the show training them, to see how much they could improve over time with real singing and performing lessons
Even if you dont start out amazing you can always become better and that girls issues were with pitch so definitely fixable. It would have been a cool journey to see
I'm not laughing at the singing but how raw the sound mix is.
I sat there in shock over her performance, her being tone-deaf has everything to do with why they couldn’t fix it
I’m laughing at both
Dude for real. They just took the audio straight from the microphone. No reverb or compression or anything. Makes sense though, they’re obviously trying to make them sound as bad as possible.
right! like come on help the girl out no instruments or anything like bruh

@@Zimzamzoom95 as a neurodivergent girl, the girl is also showing traits, but they are harder to identify as she is a girl. This whole thing is just fucked
@@noemiv8248 she’s also a human being and it’s also fucked up because she’s a real human. Jfc. armchair psychologists are the worst
Yeah, its a huge self-steem hit right there
kelsey's good at pretending that something is good when it's not because she's an elementary school teacher
Oh shit is she really? I totally see it.
She’s a preschool teacher
or because she's dating Cody- OOP👀
(its a joke guys I swear please don't shoot me I had to)
@@noface3641 bang 💥
Is she actually is it just Cody who always acts like a little kid.
Kelsey saying that Westlife “didn’t take off” is sending me as an Irish person 😭😭😭
17:50 holy shit cody wasn't joking when he said this was the worst show ever. WTF
Cody’s videos lately are just
“look at this horrible thing that exists, now go about your day with that.”
And yet none of us are complaining
It’s good but the old Cody’s videos was too good 💀
The good cancels out the bad
@@nice6258 same i miss peak cody
I love it
The only thing that would make this show better is if they offered a vocal coach at the end to help them become a better singer.
I feel like they’d never want to sing again after this experience
Personally I think the concept would have been better if they chose people who couldn’t sing and taught them how to by the end of the season or something. Much more impressive than insulting them or making a good singer a better one.
and give them the houses they made them look around
nah like the vocal coach comes gives em a lesson and like goes to a different room while the singer learning is still close by and talks shit about her and the singer learning hears. or the vocal coach just like yells at em for being so shit
Sadly, she’d be able to make good money on OnlyFans after a show like that now.
So, the generation who made this show are the one calling everyone else snowflakes? Makes sense now
The ongoing boob joke makes me so physically uncomfortable 😣
the second hand embarrassment is ASTRONOMICAL
Do you want to hug me? Then I have to shatter your dreams: I am in a relationship with TWO females! They are also huge fans of me, YT Megastar AxxL! Please don't be too disappointed, dear ryn
Don't you mean ✨frictionless✨
@@AxxLAfriku this is like CZcams telemarketing
@@AxxLAfriku thank you for gracing this comment section with your presence, dear LORD AxxL!
“We weren’t looking for America’s best singer, we were looking for America’s biggest naturals!” CODY STOP 😂😂😂😂
That KILLED me
Honestly I'd watch that show
The sadness is real in this video.
Kelsey and Cody are genuinely perfect for each other
I don't think that betterhelp sponsorship is for us
Wasn’t it exposed for being a scam like two years ago? Lol
Checked the comments to see if anyone else was gonna mention this lmao
I’ve posted several comments about how it was a scam and they keep getting deleted by someone. I’m assuming it’s either Cody or his manager. I’m incredibly disappointed
@@emihayabusa324 I mean it helped me… sucks if it was a scam tho I feel bad now lol
@@aguyfromnz537 i don’t think Cody willingly would take a sponsor from a scam but maybe he didn’t do his research on this
This whole show concept is something you would see in a fucked up dystopian future novel holy shit
Black mirror
@@shiannafoxx Fifteen Million Merits
I know u are all thinking black mirror but honestly I was thinking more like a novel from the 30s-50s that would bank on ppls current fear of the changing entertainment with tv and what it might look like in the future :p but sure black mirror I guess even tho I never watched it
It reminds me of the final doctor who episode from season 1
Hunger games shit bruh
The second any show is like, "People said we shouldn't do this, yet we did it anyway," that's when you know the show is gonna be painful to go through.
And then if the show doesn't even give a good reason why they did what they did, then that just adds even more pain, because you know that the people who made the show are assholes.
I love videos you do with Kelsey! As a team you guys make going through a really rough time bearable 💕💕
Just when I thought it couldn’t work: LYING ABOUT BEING THEM TERMINALLY ILL
How does Cody always find worse and worse shows 😂
Because reality TV in the 2000s was weirdly experimental and seemingly in a secret competition in who could sink the lowest in terms of downright humiliating their contestants.
He hasn’t even hit the swan yet
Time machine.
That’s what I always wonder
This show is insane. Taking them shopping for mansions is so cruel, but also so wildly unexpected, that it is hilarious. I literally laughed so hard my eyes are tearing up
The flaw in their plan was that the show can ONLY be one season… no one would fall for it again.
No amount of therapy could undo being on this show.

Or watching this as a child with dreams getting into that line of work. Lol
Honestly they’re couple goals. They’re personalities go together so well
man you really hit bot bingo lol
It's like they are brotter and sshiter
Brother and sister
@@zzoldd brother and shitter
@@katievfx567 lmao I guess I went too far with the brotter. Shitter was apparently enough for 50 likes
Please get in contact with the finalists! Make a video with them talking about the experience on the show, i soooo wanna see that
I am normally not a fan of the two people reaction video but omg I am absolutely in love with you guys!! You both are perfect for this and both have me laughing so hard 🤣
I legit laughed out loud multiple times, not at the singers or how cruel this show is, but Cody and Kelsey's commentary! You two are so fun but DAMN, this was disturbing... these poor people, my heart breaks for them. It's SHOCKING that this was ever seen as being an ok thing to do to people... peoples mental health truly didn't matter back then, huh? The world still kinda sucks and has a long way to go but at least we don't do this anymore!
Heyyy Molly ❤️❤️❤️❤️
they really are hilarious. I always look forward to when Cody brings Kelsey on. Her personality is so fun and she makes such funny jokes and faces. love the two of them
SAME😭
Things were weird then, man. Simon Cowell came along and turned it into a race to see who could make the meanest show with the meanest people. Gordon Ramsey is one of the left overs from the mean era. I’m glad that’s done.
Love you Molly
The thing about some of these people with “bad” voices is that with the right training and practice, they could be really good! Learning correct singing technique, breathing, performance, and rhythm can help someone improve exponentially. It’s not fair to write someone off immediately for being a “bad” singer if they haven’t had the right training but I guess that’s what shows like these are all about
i'm sad that i can only like this comment once because this is so goddamn true! like straight up, simon cowell fucked up our perceptions of singing where most "bad" singers are singing off key as their base, and that's literally such an easy fix because there are pianos and pitch apps to help train your ear to what notes sound like, and if you have even a decent teacher, they'll teach you the basics of rationing your air and how to use your whole body in your voice. and like high key, the good singers who say they've never had training, i'm gonna go out on a limb and say they probably have never had formal training where it's like 1:1 with a teacher or a chorus. like if they go to church regularly or if they have a parent or relative who was even slightly musically inclined, they'd probably receive the basics of how notes should sound and what have you. ugh i could write a fucking thesis on this.
Honestly if the show found the bad singers and then competed to see who could improve the most with training, that would have been cool
@@toril2160 That would be the best show ever!
for real! the guy had a decent voice and he wasn't terribly off key! with a little teaching he'd be a good singer! maybe not, like, the next huge pop star, but he'd kill it at karaoke!
For real like the first girl was actually lowkey pretty good
Once they ask her if she wants to become a true superstar and says "Yeah!" she looks in so much pain, like literally dying inside. Poor girl
Only my second time watching you two do the show together and OMG are you guys the cutes?!! Made for each other. ❤
American idol and America’s got talent actually used to do this to a lesser extent, all the contestants would go through several rounds of auditions before actually auditioning for the celebrity judges and being on tv. The bad singers/acts would make it through the first few rounds, so they thought they were really good, and then the celebrity judges would break the news that they’re actually bad. I don’t think they do that anymore because I don’t see any hilariously untalented people on those shows anymore, but they definitely used to do that
Yes, I always hated that part of American idol!
@@oriannaisabella7041 same! Once I found that out, I understood why the contestants would get so mad, it’s cruel
@@oriannaisabella7041 Maybe I am a shitty person, but I always thought that was the best part. My family would gather around the TV for the auditions. Once the actual competitions started it became boring and we stopped watching.
i think they just frame some of the good singers as bad now like that one pink impersonator on x factor i think it was. made her seem angry but really they'd messed things up to make her angry
@@oriannaisabella7041 Why?. It was the good part of the show
Okay, but like… did no one notice the footage of icebergs behind Jamie as she was singing My Heart Will Go On? Cos I can’t decide if that’s iconic or just another layer of horribleness to this show
It’s just funny I think
no, we were too busy looking at her all naturals
nobody has mentioned what the audience must've been thinking when they were revealing the real point of the show lmaooo I can just imagine them thinking "what the fuck why would you say that to a make a wish kid????"
You showed up in my feed tonight and you two are cracking me up! I HAD to subscribe!
This show is literally just bullying for adults
I thought this was another episode of that “let’s publicly criticize people’s appearance in front of a live audience”show but this is SO MUCH WORSE which I did not think was possible
I feel like they were particularly cruel to Mario in that sense. They kept telling him to sex it up and so he would do things like dance around in tighty whities for the camera like Tom Cruise in Risky Business.
He was easily the one most humiliated by the show.
I like how homegirl even missed the rhyme and said
"far, near,
wherever you are"
I love your videos w her. She's too cute! Yall are lucky to have found one another because you compliment one another very well!
Cody, it's a Japanese reality show, but look into "Denpa Shōnen teki Kenshō Seikatsu" (“a life out of prizes”). They tortured a man for over a year and framed it as a comedy. It's the absolute most buckwild shit you will ever see. Trust me.
We should all like this so that he will make a video on this!
boosting
That shoe gave me nightmares
oh god
a better translation would be “Denpa Shounen’s Prize life” (Denpa Shounen is the name of the show, they had other segments on it as well and they all featured comedians in different situations)
This show deserves its own documentary. I want to see what these people have to say for themselves. This is insane
I’m watching this at 3 am in the morning and I’m amazed how this is for real
the black guy probably drank himself to death with whisky cuz he was already on his way on that road
this video is almost two years old but i NEED everyone to know that Lorenzo Lamas was Meap in Phineas and Ferb
my jaw dropped
i’ve been binging these videos and their humor is elite i am thoroughly enjoying all of these 😂😂
