seems to me it would be a little dishonest to do it any other way. At least this way the interviewee can't come back and claim they didn't know they were going to be made as ass of.
Then again I can see some of the characters they are interviewing just doing whatever simply to "be on tv".
- BigZaphod 17y agoI'm not so sure it'd be dishonest unless they lied about who they were when they interviewed someone and purposely misled someone who had never seen the show during an interview. That said, though, it does make sense to me (in hindsight.. :P) that they'd rather script and control the process than rely on luck/talent in getting a good set of shots to use - after all, it's a big business and sending a film crew + on-air talent all over the country (or world) to film could get rather expensive if they couldn't be assured of being able to make the required joke(s) afterward.
