Contestant isn't fooled by 'Joe' reality show

The woman had suspicions from the start.
SCRIPPS HOWARD
A Spike TV reality series, in which actors pretend to be contestants on a fake reality show, failed to fool a woman who in real life has a degree in international relations and monitors foreign elections.
On tonight's episode of "Joe Schmo 2" (10 p.m.), Ingrid Wiese, a contractor with the United Nations and governmental agencies, will get confirmation that her suspicions are correct: The "reality" show "Last Chance at Love" is fake. The show's premise is that Wiese and Tim Walsh, both Washington, D.C., residents, are misled to believe they're on "Last Chance."
They're supposedly competing with other men and women for the affections of bachelor Austin Newton Rice (actor Tim Herzog) and bachelorette Piper Davidson (Valerie Azlynn).
But actually, everyone on the show except Wiese and Walsh are actors. (So far, Walsh seemingly hasn't figured out he's being misled.)
"I tortured the producers," said Wiese, laughing.
The episodes showed executive producers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick and others in the control booth talking quickly to figure out how to keep fooling Wiese, who voiced suspicions from the start.
In a phone interview last week, Wiese, 30, praised the actors, but said she saw several clues that the series is fake. The clincher -- when Cammy (played by Jana Speaker) told her she is worried about her pornography past catching up with her.
