“Are you sure your parents aren’t home?” Nothing innocent ever started with that question, but almost no one is innocent in Primetime, a sardonic look at the making (and makers) of NBC’s notorious undercover sting series To Catch a Predator.
The query comes from “MarriedAndLookingForFun31313” (Tony Revolori), entering a suburban home through the back door, intent on meeting a 13-year-old for sex, and unaware he’s starring in an episode of the show. His hot hookup is really a trap, set for creeps cruising online for minors.
A few minutes later, he’s pleading, “Please don’t put this on TV!” But this is great TV. So before he knows it, MarriedAndLookingForFun31313, an Iraq War vet, finds himself the poster boy of primetime predators.
