The guy are of course in on it too. No one can miss as much as he does. You also see it in his (over) reactions in some situations. Not the big ones, but small things in his face. So with that said the comedy are useless, because the so called comedy is not comedy, but just scripted happenings.

I wanted to like this but unfortunately it didn't work, for me. Maybe some people could find this amusing, but I would have liked it a lot better if the main guy really was unaware of "the joke". But, I don't think he is, and that makes it kind of... meh.

Sorry, but there's not much more to say about this.
