Quoted from DaveH:I really liked that show for years. But then they started manufacturing too much fake drama. The pranks and the fake stuff just bugged me and ruined the show for me. I’m sure it was just the producers trying to juice up the show, but it made it annoying to watch.
The show has gone from being a documentary series to reality TV, with set up shots and suggested/written dialog. It's almost unwatchable now when you go back and compare it to the first couple of seasons.
