For several years, the repossession industry was up in arms about the proliferation of “Repo Reality” TV shows and the negative image of the industry they portrayed as a bunch of lawn wrestling jug heads who dropped their gloves for a fight on the drop of a dime. There was a perception and theory that these melodramas were contributory to what seemed like spikes in repossession related acts of violence including shootings and deaths. Seemingly unnoticed and with no fanfare, they all went away almost as quick as they proliferated.
I do not remember that one. Must not have been as bad.
Kevin, FYI- the first reality show concerning the repo industry was, Repo Men: Stealing for a Living, which aired 2001 – 2004 on True TV.
