Moment of Truth
Moment of truth is a game show where the contestants have to answer very personal questions truthfully in order to win money, if they lie, they lose.
I saw this clip on youtube last night and after watching it I was praying that this show is staged. This woman completely ruins her marriage on national t.v. all for money.

Re: Moment of Truth
I am wondering if it is staged too. She looked too calm to me.

If it's not staged, I don't like the concept. After a show, someone is going to hurt their partner eventually. People coming on with their secrets and exposing them on air like that just for money is downright wrong.

Re: Moment of Truth
That was one of the first thoughts that went through my head when i saw commercials for it. I dont see why people would want to air out their dirty laundry on television, people will do anything for money and networks will do anything for ratings. When I saw this episode, I saw it as a cop-out on her part, like she used the show to tell her husband what she really felt and what she has done. Poor guy.

Re: Moment of Truth
Awww.. I felt so bad for the husband.. It's strange how the question was "Do you think you're a good person?" and she said yes and she turned out to be wrong.. I thought if you honestly believe you're a good person then the lie detector won't pick it up?? *confused

It's a bad show imo..

Sucks for the husband.

Re: Moment of Truth
She was horrible...how humiliating for the husband. Great if you want to get that stuff off your chest, but to do it in front of a national audience...she needs a swift thwack with a 2X4.

I'm glad she didn't win any money!

Re: Moment of Truth
so thats pretty dumb. if she is making such a big deal about not answering a question, doesn't that say a lot about what her answer is?

Re: Moment of Truth
what a pathetic tv show, and how pathetic for someone to ruin their life just for some extra money from a game show.

Re: Moment of Truth
I think she was lying to herself about whether she thought she was a good person or not... if that makes any sense. Somewhere inside, she doesn't believe it.

I was glad she left with nothing... I find it sick that she only had the balls to be honest with her husband when money was on the line.

My understanding is that the person in the "hot seat" gets all of the questions ahead of time. They know what will be asked; not necessarily the order, but they are not blind-sided which is why there may appear to be a "calmness".

I can not imagine doing that show or putting my family & friends through that and I can't even think of anything that I am hiding, although there are some things we keep to ourselves for no other reason than to save someone from hurt feelings (versus protecting our own bad choices.) For example, do I want my sister to find out that those pants DO make her a-s look big on national tv so I can win $10,000? Not really... who is that fair to?

Re: Moment of Truth
OMG ... I've never seen or heard of this show, how do they tell if someone is lying? With a polygraph? Those aren't 100% accurate!
