Is anyone else sick of these lame Perverted Justice decoys who can't act for shit? Who writes lines and directs these decoys?!! It's soooo cheesy that sometimes I want to throw a rock at the tv..!
Example 1: None of the decoys allows a hug, not even a handshake upon meeting. Immediate tip-off right there.
2: the male decoy (playing a 14-yr-old) talks waay to adult-like...and sounds more sleezeball charming than the perps he meets
3: No 13- or 14- year old says (upon meeting an old stranger): "Hi...just come on in! I baked some cookies and made some tea. Why don't you pour me a glass and I'll be right back, ok??" in their confident, jubilant voice.
They did have (for once) a hot chick actress on this week's show though. Too bad her acting is even worse ("Oh, I'm just shy...don't you want to just look at the ocean?"--and immediately backs away from perp who she wanted to "meet").
They had another decoy chick last week who was caught off-guard when a perp wanted to use the bathroom. She didn't know what to say LOL She wouldn't let him use the bathroom and said something like, "But...don't you just want to sit down and rest...?" Monster improv skills.
I know Dateline and the cops want the utmost safety for the decoys and don't want them to see the Perverted Justice Camera Crew, but c'mon! What are those guys gonna do? There's cops surrounding the house, for chrissakes!
