These families are nuts and extreme. What do you think? They can't handle a week of change. Poor families. LOL
Always remember to give "thumbs up" to deserving answers.

Yes, the families are real, but most parts are scripted. There are directors, and they will reshoot scenes many times until they get exactly what they want. Another type of staging they often do is to "create" a situation, such as a fake birthday party or event, and pretend it's real. When a family is screened and chosen, they sign an agreement where they are willing to do just about whatever the producers want, and the families are compensated pretty well.

If it was scripted they would have to be the most amazing actors the world has ever seen! LMAO What makes it seem so nuts is the way they deliberately pair up 2 couples that are opposites in every way so the sparks will fly!

I think you have to be nuts and extreme to allow yourself to go on a show like that in the first place.

No, I think the families are actors; or people who want to be.
Those folks are too out there to be real.

Unfortunately I do believe they are real. There are crazy people out in the world. Sadly we have to witness it on Fox.

I think they are real, but real opinionated.
I don't see how anyone could go into someone else's house and tell people they don't live properly. It is so arrogant.

Ther is no way they could make any of this bull **** up so it has to be real. They all make my family seem so well adjusted.
