If you haven't heard or seen this, Lizard Lick Towing was filmed by Tru TV for a few episodes of a day in the life of a tow truck business owner. The owner and his sidekick best bud are something! If the program takes off, then they'll film more episodes. It was on Tru last night at 10pm. I came across it by accident. The tow co is based in the Wendell area and filming took place in Raleigh at Heads Tattoo parlour across from NCSU? and in Knightdale, Wendell areas from what I could tell. It's rough...a tough way to make a living!
They were on bob and the showgram the other morning. They used to be a part of another TruTV show, and now got there own from that. They said now only about 60% is real, as they have to act to show back story on some of it, and some are not real tows anymore. The first show they did was 100% real they said.
There was an episode of "Intervention" on A&E that was filmed in Wendell too. A middle-aged middle class father of two who was addicted to cocaine (or something); he ended up going to the rehab place therapy. It was on a few weeks ago, but there was snow on the ground. Maybe it was an old episode form last winter (they are taped several months in advance I believe)
Fake, scripted dumb tv show! If you believe any TRUTV shows are real, I have a bridge for sale in NYC.....
We aren't saying we believe them, just that it's filmed in our area. I think we are all intelligent enough to figure out what's real and what's bad acting.

I was commenting more on the 60% figure from Bobs Showgram... I aint judgin! My wife likes those shows. To me, they are like pro wrestling ....
I sometimes watch "Swamp Loggers" which is also filmed down east in NC.

TRU Tv's slogan is "Not reality, actuality.". That in itself should tell you all the shows are re-enactments.
