This is what is wrong with TV these days. They should put a huge disclaimer that this show is full of poo poo. Then people would know that all shows like this are not real and for entertainment only. Other than that it is pretty amusing.

South Beach Tow is not only TV show of this type. There's also the Lizard Lick Towing show from NC and the Operation Repo show from SoCal. (I watch both regularly). I agree it's probably more entertainment than reality. If the violence and screaming on any of those shows actually was realistic, then most of the people on both sides (repo agents and vehicles owners/neighbors) would probably be in jail for either disorderly conduct and/or assault/battery.

But, on the other hand (as the little introductory song from Operation Repo says).............."It ain't no joke, if you don't pay that note". Miss a couple of payments or more, and, TV show or no TV show, legally, your car, with the correct documentation and paperwork, can be subject to towing and impoundment/repossession.

LOL I love these kinda shows, always some hilarious moments. Sure most of them are probably acted out and such, but they are funny as hell!

One of the better ones from "Operation Repo":
