Fans Accuse “Mama June” Show of Staging Scenes, Call Out Production

Mama June fans have identified a staged scene from the latest episode of Family Crisis. Although the cast insists the reality series is genuine, viewers have their doubts. What scene appeared to be set up by production, and how did fans react? Read on for more details.

Despite claims that From Not to Hot and Family Crisis are not staged, some viewers remain skeptical, believing certain storylines are fabricated. Over the years, several inaccuracies have surfaced. For instance, it’s well-known that filming doesn’t occur in Pumpkin’s actual home due to space constraints; instead, a show home is provided by the network. Another inconsistency is that Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson supposedly lived with Pumpkin until graduation, but in reality, she moved in with her boyfriend, Dralin Carswell, at age 16, and potentially lived with her other sister, Jessica Shannon, at some point.

Fans have also criticized the cast for their overacting, particularly Pumpkin. Many scenes seem exaggerated compared to the cast’s real-life behavior and social media personas. Currently, Family Crisis is dealing with the loss of Anna Cardwell, which has left the cast in a state of mourning. However, a keen viewer noticed a recent episode where June was on the phone, but it appeared no one was on the other end.

This observation sparked a Reddit thread where the original poster expressed disbelief. Here’s what some followers had to say:

• This is what I don’t get about the show. They have a ton of real material; there’s no reason to add in all this fake stuff and bad acting.
• You couldn’t tell from the smirks they both have when “acting out a scene” for production? 🤔

For many Family Crisis fans, it was no surprise that Mama June appeared to be speaking into a phone with nobody on the other end. They have long felt that much about her is inauthentic, and some didn’t hold back their criticisms:

• June LOVES to come across as some saintly, pure individual—mother of the year—in the confessional segments, but it’s heavily scripted and all for show. Scamming and grifting at its finest.

Another critic commented on how everything about June seems artificial, from her lashes to her hair to her veneers. They also questioned the legitimacy of her claims about being clean for as long as she says, casting doubt on her authenticity.

Did you notice the staged phone call scene or did it go unnoticed while you were watching the show? Do you think any aspects of these individuals’ lives are real or are they merely acting for payment? Share your thoughts and catch Family Crisis on Fridays on WeTV.
