The only competition TourettesGUY had was an old man who starred in what was simply called "The Angry Grandpa Show"

It was what you'd expect, an old man that got angry easily and known for his profanity-laced tirades, fits of rages, and general destruction of property.

Can't say it rings a bell.

One of those scripted raging things, he was one of the first ones though and actually seemed to actually be more satirical and thought out than some of the lazier ones that have come since.

The earlier vids (p much most of what happened before his wife left him) always seemed fairly legit.

The show has been total shit and fake since like 2012 though.

Sad to hear he passed though.

Was this where the old guy would break stuff and his fat grandson would sit there and yell GRANDPA STOP for 10 minutes then cry? All in a obviously fake and scripted way?

I had a friend who would always show me them and think they were real. Fucking infuriating.

RIP and thoughts and prayers to the family tho

lol this argument again

There's a difference between fiction (most forms of entertainment) and staged things trying to pass off a real. Pranks are only funny if they're genuine and angry grandpa would only be somewhat entertaining if it was real, which it wasn't. Watching staged bad acting isn't entertaining in the slightest.

The people who enjoy that sort of content are people who simply don't know it's staged but for the rest of us it's unwatchable.

Yeah as I said there was a point when the vids were genuine.

Most of what came out in 2012 and onwards was faked.

Like Link said, poor acting and badly staged shit is not entertaining, and in the case of Angry Grandpa it became very very obviously staged.

Also when they got money and stopped living in a trailer park a huge chunk of the original appeal of the show was lost. It was fascinating to see how these sorts of people lived.

Aww that sucks

I was never a huge fan, but I'd catch a video every now and then. Sometimes the reactions they'd come up with actually funny. He has been in awful health for years though so it was bound to happen at any time.

Wonder how the channel will be now because just having Michael on there just won't work imo

Yeah? Well i'm gonna need more then that to be actually convinced of it being fake. Like actual facts from the show of it being fake, that is not disputed.

I was told once that Grandpa tried to admit it was staged, but he did it to save his embarrassment of looking like an idiot for his rages. Which Michael told everyone afterwards. So that's disputed.

Also McJuggernauts constantly hounded them last year for being fake 'demanding scripts' which Michael said don't exist and defended it wasn't fake, but it was his life. But people who watch are still skeptical at that. Wanting to believe that they planned to act like that when the cameras aren't going. That can still be disputed and has not been proven either.

From ''your'' perspective, it might be fake. But from mine, it's just entertainment. You'll need something more to get me to accept it's fake. And using the word 'obvious' is just misusing in this case.

This is what i hate about people and media. If they see something that they believe is fake, they just go with their gut instinct and spew out that it's fake and a hive mind gets created from this consensus to just bash it.

Trump has made it worse though so i can't really complain, and it's a more complicated matter with news outlets like CNN involved due to errors in their sources.

I mean I watched the show way back, and then popped into the newer stuff. It's not a "gut feeling" on my end. It just plain looks fake and staged.

Yeah exactly, it 'looks' fake, but is it 'proved' fake? If it isn't. Then you and other people shouldn't go around saying something is fake without proving it otherwise undisputed . That can be said for nearly every thing you don't like. There's no safeguard to stop this tactic from being abused in any way.

And that's exactly what Trump has done, by not only saying that news outlets that report on him negatively can be refereed to as fake news. He is also encouraging anyone to just dismiss what they see as fake if they don't like it. Even if it becomes unbearable to watch which is when your gut instinct kicks in and wants to believe it's fake so that you feel better about yourself being subjected to watching that.

Therefore. Criticism of the Angry grandpa show can be enhanced ten folds over.

I can argue a million different reasons for why he acted like that other then it being staged. Hence dispute.
1 of them is and this was said on this very thread, that the show started to look more fake and staged from 2012 onwards. This was uploaded in 2011.

Looks like i got to educate some people.
"Ad hominem short for argumentum ad hominem, is an argumentative strategy whereby an argument is rebutted by attacking the character, motive, or other attribute of the person making the argument, or persons associated with the argument, rather than attacking the substance of the argument itself"

You attacked your opponent's character or personal traits in an attempt to undermine their argument.
Ad hominem attacks can take the form of overtly attacking somebody, or more subtly casting doubt on their character or personal attributes as a way to discredit their argument. The result of an ad hom attack can be to undermine someone's case without actually having to engage with it."

That's exactly what people here are doing to me now. All because i said i needed more then assumptions of other viewers on a content being watched looking fake. Because it's 'terrible' at acting.

And what is happening is that none of you still tried to find hard concrete proof that agp is fake and that it's undisuputable with that (non existent) evidence. So your ad hominems to me is your way of telling me i'm right, and you are all bsing as well as shitting on a deceased man's legacy.

You find it hillarous. Good for you. But you are all clearly missing the point. I'll believe it's real UNTIL it's been proven fake.

Everyone here is relying on subjective opinionated view to declare agp is fake and use it as evidence when that's an fallacy to do.

In an argumentative debate. This holds no ground whatsoever as many people have different opinions on every different matter.

Otherwise 1 billion views must indicate that the whole planet is made of people who take 'absolutely nothing' seriously.
But if everyone is gonna treat the situation like a joke and not take part to actually try and give me what i want. Undisputed evidence which i've said what, 4 or 5 times now?. I'll have to end it by never talking to any of you again by putting you all on the ignore list.

Angry grandpa is just too controversial of a topic to talk about without it becoming a flame war.
