Mystery Diners (2011– )
4/10
Proof of Fake Reality Show
26 July 2016
Warning: Spoilers
I came across this show on Netflix a few weeks ago and couldn't get enough of it. I went to YouTube and discovered 200 something episodes. I have multiple degrees in Criminal Justice and was a Private Investigator and worked undercover for about 12-years so I really liked this show until a couple of episodes stood out with known goofs. In the episode with the mob like thug who was stealing meat from supplier and selling it to a restaurant; they said they were calling the police. In the control room were 2 alleged police officers in blue uniforms. Charles said for the officers to take the crooks away and on the left shoulder their patch said, "Security." I played it back several times.

Then, I came across Season 10, Episode 2 with a countdown of the 'sneakiest employees.' In the episode with "Bob" who was caught faking a hurt leg from a Workers Comp Claim and Mystery Diners proved he was faking. In the control room, I recognized the so called "Bob." After watching it back several times, I identified "Bob" as actor

Robert Palmer Watkins currently plays the role of Dillon Quartermaine on General Hospital for a little over a year. I have been watching GH for 30-years, so I know who he is and yet "Mystery Designers" is not listed under the actor's credits. I respect Robert as a great actor on GH and something like this discovery could hurt his resume but the truth needed to come out.

It's a shame because there are probably legitimate episodes but ran out of those in need and kept the show running with the fake shows. Talk about a discredit to the series.
