Fake! The Hypocrisy
Catfish catfishes its own audience - hypocrites! Only seen 1 episode, S5E17, and it was suspiciously set up to feature wannabe YouTube 'celebs' and featured a scrawny kid, with embarrassing fashion-victim hair, who just happened to be a wannabe pop 'star' (with very high quality pop videos). I stopped watching halfway through. Too many fake American shows! Basically it was just product placement for wannabe stars.
The whole point of the show was to find out fakers - they now seem to be creating fakers to then publicise 'talented' youngsters (who are already signed to MTV?).
Fortunately, just seen 1 half episode, that was enough. Noticed puny 'Neeeev' announced his engagement then, and again (to someone else) this year - only this time he's got her to pretend that she's having his child. Closet gay.
