I enjoyed watching these shows, they were really funny. It's too bad Fox didn't promote the show more, attracting a bigger audience and thus giving it a longer play. I'm disappointed that I will probably never get to see them again unless Fox puts them out on DVD, and that is very unlikely. :-( For those that don't know about this series: The show was set in a house in a residential neighborhood. Everyone in the house were actors, except for the clueless "mark", whom was someone called out to the house to fix something, or do some other kind of work. The actors then created an elaborate sit-com like situation, and put the 'mark' in the middle of it, with hilarious results.

This show is jamie kennedy and any sitcom out there combined its hilarious well played out and these unsuspecting people 9 times out of 10 just think these people are just crazy. Who ever thought up this idea was freakin' brilliant its hilarious it makes you want to be on the show and its a sitcom but with REAL people. The show is recommend for anyone with a funny bone! ~!
good show, but where's Pat?

Overall, I love the show. A great idea that flips reality television on it's head.
My only complaint is about Patrick. Where the heck is he? In the three episodes we've seen now, he's had only a total of about 5 minutes on camera time. Went to school with him, and know that he deserves more than just the background part he has.

Pretty Good

I saw the premeire on Fox and its pretty cool. Its reality and sitcom all mixed in one. Its fun watching "the mark" when he or she is walking around and they dont know that they're in a sitcom, so this show is very very creative and i'm not sure if Fox will continue it, but sure hope they do. So watch "Meet the Marks" on Fox.(so far for the summer its on on Wednesdays at 8:30/7:30 central on Fox.)
something new

I love this show, it's a different take on the 'hidden camera' thing. I couldn't believe some of the things the actors were able to get people to do. It's a very talented cast and the situations are pretty creative. I also like that each skit is like a mini sit-com.
Interesting

I saw the first episode and it was pretty funny. I haven't even heard of any hype for this show. I just happened to be on the same channel when this came on. Good stuff.
The set is a real house where unsuspecting visitors become the stars of the episode. It's a new wrinkle in the hidden camera genre with a sit-comish edge.
