First, the "real people, not actors" would be greeted to a menu consisting of 3 items.

Third, who would be surprised and excited to find that your "restaurant meal" came delivered in a box by some dipshit college student.
I'd be stabbing people...

Speaking of stabbing people, I saw one of those really bad Candid Camera ripoffs the other day, and am convinced that TV writers any more are stupid.
Candid Camera was funny because it presented unusual situations. The new shows just lie to people and then laugh at them. They're horrendous.
So...I'm flipping the channels and see a channel where two attractive young women are standing around in bikinis. Naturally, I stop to see if they're about to oil wrestle. It turns out that one of them is the "joke victim" and the other one is an actress. A fake doctor comes out and gives them "fast-acting suntan cream" to wear into a tanning booth as part of the "final approval process". The actress goes in, stays for five minutes, and comes out. The victim then goes in.
While the victim is in, they spray the actress with red stuff that looks like horrible burns, and actually paste fake lesions onto her. When the victim comes out, the actress is crying and acting like she's in great pain. The fake doctor then comes out, looks, and gets on a phone and starts saying, "It's the same problem we had with Batch 29. You think it's radiation?"
The victim is trying to comfort the crying actress and is obviously scared to death since she just came out, and after letting her stew for a few minutes, they all laugh and say, "Ha, ha! You're on Joke TV!" The victim rightfully did not seem happy about it.
It's unbelievable that somebody actually thought that was funny.
