Fake Sacrament Meeting

Has anyone else noticed the fake Sacrament Meeting that comes on the BYU channel on Sunday Mornings?
Everyone is paying attention
Everyone is impeccably dressed
No crying babies, in fact no one in the congregation appears to be <10 years old
This has to be staged, no ward I've ever been in acts like this one. What are they trying to accomplish? Who do they think that they are fooling?

It is also very old. Have a friend I recognized from the choir and she told me they came to their ward and took them to be filmed, about 25 years ago. Notice the styles. If you google the bishop, he is much older now.

WOW, 25 years! I knew the episodes were old, wow 25 years! I wonder why they still air them? I think there could be better use of programming time for that 30 minutes.
