Update: that mall kiosk gut check thing in Dallas changed how I read every 'as seen on TV' clip
Two years ago I watched a booth guy at a Dallas mall demo a phone case by dropping it off a ladder, and then a friend pointed out he swapped in a different case right before the drop. Now every time a clip blows up I look for the cut right before the big moment instead of trusting the reaction shot. Am I being too paranoid, or is the edit the whole story?
