Like on the love shows, people obviously fall in love and get married and have kids.

And that's a part of it.

But to get to that point, to win a show like The Bachelor, you've got to navigate this weird traps and pitfalls kind of maze that the producer set up for you to get to that end point.

And that part, getting through that maze is a game, 100%.

at least on Bachelor, the way it works is the producers during casting are casting for a set of archetypes.

The girl next door, the professional, the free spirit, the villain, you know, whatever.

Digital Social Hour

They will cast in casting for those roles.

You are now cast as one of those roles.

If you go into the show and you don't deliver on that, they'll just kick you off the show.

But on night one, generally, the lead...

Digital Social Hour

says, these three people are my top three, and that almost never changes.

So the rest of it is the lead acting like they care about all the other players, and the producers deciding who gets kicked off in which order to make the most entertaining show.

Digital Social Hour

Yeah.

I mean, those shows that are like open game shows are much less tampered with by producers.

Digital Social Hour

That really is about how the players are playing the game and stuff.

And really, I mean, I guess the lie in those shows is when you see the little insert shots or something of something falling in the sand or whatever.

They just had one on Traitors.

Digital Social Hour
