“Just Shoot Me” star David Spade is calling out what’s phony and what’s genuine in an unique very first trailer for Fox’s brand-new video game program, “Snake Oil.”
“More than 4 million animals go chronically un-petted by their owners,” said a voiceover for what seemed a real-life commercial for a pet-petter. “Give them the pets they deserve with Bruce’s Better Petter. It’s motion-activated with a full range of physical affection.”
The gag is, the item nor its business were genuine.
“OK, this product isn’t real. It’s snake oil. However, this is very real,” host Spade said, cutting in. The video then changed to a shot of the “Snake Oil” set and its individuals.
The series is hosted by Spade and executive produced by star, author and manufacturer Will Arnett, who presently hosts Fox’s” Lego Masters.”
For participants, the things of the video game is to think which businesses are genuine and phony after seeing persuading pitches from business owners. They’ll receive help from visitor celeb consultants and have the possibility to win $50,000.
“When Fox asked me to host their new show, I was flattered,” Spade said. “But then they told me it was about a shady snake oil salesman, and I was a little less flattered to be the guy that immediately comes to mind.”
“Snake Oil” is set to debut on Sept. 27 after the Season 10 best of “The Masked Singer.”
