… never mind.
In reality, the absurdity of the show is meant to criticize Dutch immigration laws and draw attention to the plight of asylum-seekers. A spokesperson for Holland’s Refugee Support Group elaborates:

The Secret Service arrested a homeless man who climbed over the White House fence live on television. Take that astronauts! I’ll bet the secret service’s numbers in the “things-little-boys-wanna-be” polls are through the roof! Of course, firemen still dominate a good percentage of voters despite these recent developments.

Don’t change that channel. After these important messages from our sponsors, we’ll be right back for more of:
