    It's one thing to have a candid camera show where the pranks are all in good fun, but this takes it to another level. Using people as objects to gain money for yourself is pathetic.

    The producers are dependent on their contestant and the kindness of baffled strangers to develop an interesting impromptu drama, and it just doesn't happen all that often.

    Not to put too fine a point on it, but you'd need rocks in your head to really love Game Show In My Head.
