I'd say no, I followed the link back to his site and started watching a whole bunch of episodes from last year.

If his boss had watched even half of the stuff I just saw scotty get up too (some of it plain funny, especially the answering of viewer mail during staff meetings), I'd say the reaction could be considered not fake...

And the theatric "you're fired, get the hell out" thing at the end? The firing end of that conversation doesn't usually work like that, either --- except in the movies.

If the boss saw the videos where Scotty mocked him then he might be pissed--the binging clients will discover videos of him looking foolish and incompetent.

He'd start out pissed if that was the case. Usually, when you actually fire the guy, you feel better, not worse.

He sounded very pissed at the start, and lost control when Scotty implied that the job was only important for video material.

Yeah, and I did find one small error. At around 2:20 he starts hitting himself in the head while at home, and then it switches over to the hidden camera. At 2:23 you can hear him hit himself once more when the boss starts to speak.

So unless I get convinced he starts hitting himself in the head while arguing with people, I think this is fake.

I have to agree with froo, if this was a fake conversation it would have gone a lot smoother and Scotty would have had a few more one-liners.

Agree. "Bing", "bung", I call shenanigans.

Unfortunately, I find that all too credible. Shenanigans or not, it's easier than ever to start a career in showbiz these days.

"kind of fake"?

This has worse acting than most pornos... (As far as I've heard)

And...scene.

the previous episodes seem legit. this one feels fake to me.

Very lucky to be videoing in his pocket when he got fired....

And it does sound a bit staged.

But then I know managers like that so.....
