Shows With Misleading Previews

[lleeder]

Every week Hells Kitchen shows the preview for the following week and the voice over guy says something like " the most shocking Hell's Kitchen Ever" and it never is.

Yet every week I get excited thinking it will be something crazy.

The only other show I can compare it to is the Sopranos.

Every week the previews would make it look like something big was gonna happen.

It rarely did.

all reality shows are like that

"after the break, an elimination ceremony you have to see to believe"

and after everyone, if i didn't see it and someone just told me about it..i'd believe it.




but Hell's Kitchen is really bad, the other week didn't they show a preview where Ramsay goes "i'm closing Hell's Kitchen" and the ad made it seem like it was everyone dealing with the show being over...and then the episode aired and in the first 5 minutes its "I'm closing Hell's Kitchen.................because we are all going to Atlantic City!" And then it was just a normal episode

It also pisses me off in that show that the show is actually ~10 minutes shorter because after every commercial break they give a 30 second review of what happened BEFORE THE COMMERCIAL ! What did someone forget what just happened 2 minutes ago?
Another thing. Doesn't Ramsay run 4 star restaurants? Am I to actually believe that he gives ANY of the mooks who are contestants on these shows one of these restaurants to run?
Why do I watch this shit?

They should hyped that panic attack/heart attack.

I remember on Fear Factor, they kept showing some guy running up on Rogan, and they played it off like there was gonna be this huge fight. When it happened, the guy grabbed him and someone else broke it up.

Also, anytime Family Guy says it's gonna be hilarious.......it won't be.

As bad as Fox is, Bravo is easily the worst. All of their awful fake reality shows promise shocking twists and fights, and it's always the same crappy episode as the previous week. Then these dumb promos are shown during every commercial break of every show, sometimes even twice during the same break.

The Miz was on Fear Factor? Was that before he joined the WWE?

[samechick]

Ghost Hunters on SciFi is awful too. Oh and Destination Truth was/is pretty bad too.

SciFi channel in general has shitty promos I guess :|

The chefs end up "working" under some other chef for one year and then go away.

Bravo is the fucking worst. The previews for the next week NEVER show anything, just a bunch of people reacting.
