My Big Fat Obnoxious Boss

The thing with these spoofs and practical jokes is that they are funny, but there's a fine line between hilarious and annoying. And sometimes this show does just that, annoy. Even though the tasks are fun, they're not entirely original. I mean, selling soup on a hot day? Is that the best they could come up with? The boss, Mr. "Todd", sometimes is lost for words when the candidates reply to his remarks. Overall the cast of actors seem pretty full of themselves off air. This show is fun to watch if you like watching people humiliate themselves. It's not by any standard a great program in the history of TV making, just cheap entertainment. As for the mystery boss, my guess....Rupert Murdoch.

This is one of the best shows i have every seen. I think it just aired at the wrong time when people were sick and tired of reality TV shows and ultimately got cancelled. After the first episode you will be hooked, and want to watch the whole season. The actors are incredible and make 12 contestants believe that they are billionaires. Swayed by the almighty dollar, the contestants compete in a series of out of this world challenges but do them with class. Its a dog eat dog game show for $250,000 and a job opportunity working for a billionaire. The contestants are business all stars and make this show worth it all. 10 episodes-40 minutes long makes this show for one hilarious day. My favorite show of all time.

I rarely have expectations of a reality show, and even less so for one titled "My Big Fat..." anything.

The actor portraying the Boss does a phenomenal job. I was sucked into watching the first program by the promos, and I wasn't disappointed. Serving them up the cheapest champagne and hearing them gush about how great it was - excellent!

The editing is particularly good, really showing the reactions of the contestants to each outrageous claim.

And as a commentary on greed, how can you top the invention of fraudulent charities and street hustling?

This is not your average reality program. I recommend it to anyone who appreciates a good practical joke and improv comedy.

In this age of pranking, I cannot believe this many educated and ostensibly smart people would fall for the shenanigans pulled by "Mr. Todd". Despite the mansions and yachts etc. it is inconceivable to me that these folks are clueless as to the propriety of "Mr. Todd"'s antics.

I missed episode #4 and I'm bummed out over that. All in all, the concept is brilliant and the show is F-ing hilarious. I cannot wait to see who the mystery person really is. I would have loved to have been the actor playing the boss.

The winner won't mind as they collect a quarter million bucks cash. The 15 losers will, no doubt, be livid.

Even better than the entire first series(also hilarious) in it's pilot episode.

can't wait to see NBC's fake reality show "25 Millon dollar hoax" as well.

best part in THIS show though was the "Get the hell outta my office"

BTW who does everyone think the secret "boss" is?

I have a few choices,

Randy(the victim from season 1)

Steve (Fiance from season 1)

Donald Trump
