The Amish Mafia...

PostBy: dcrane On: Tue Jan 08, 2013 4:24 am

Is this stuff for real down their in PA? :shock:

Im not sure if anyone else caught a few minutes of this show but i was LMFAO! It appears that a bunch of pencil neck geeks run some sort of Mafia down their in PA. that extorts moneys from their community in exchange for protection against mailbox bashers :lol: They cant be serious about this can they? Ive always wanted to see the Amish country in PA. and i think this show is making me want to go just to see what its like, so maybe thats the "real" purpose of this ridiculous show :up:

Everything is a "reality" show these days! It says allot about the state of mind of people with to much time on their hands.

Everything on these reality shows is faked or scripted to some degree especially the new ones. It's like a damn soap opera for some of them.

Do you really think some moonshiner is going to want some camera crew there with blazing lights at night? LOL

These shows are really cheap to produce, that is why you see them everywhere now. As far as the Amish Mafia....watched it for
5 min once, that was enough.

Never seen the show. Saw the name of it while I was flipping through the channel guide thingy and laughed. Had no interest in watching it. Sounds ridiculous.

Exactly. One of the main charicters is the Vol Fire Chief in the town! Come on now.........we're lead to believe he is sneaking around (with a camera crew in tow) mashing! Then there is the prerequisite toothless deliverance drunk who sings "Licker" songs and has a two syllable "bob name" :lol: It's comedy.

Those yahoos are all from a little Town called Richland in Lebanon county. I get a charge out of it because I know a lot of their kind. What is funny is if you silence the ominous music, most of the scenes are a bunch of crusty Amish trotting their buggys down the country roads.
