But I still think that there's a lot of craziness.
There's a lot of exploitation.
you know, people pushing buttons and trying to amp up drama.
But I think now we know that the production companies have a duty of care to the people who are participating on these shows and the people who are making these shows.
And so that, you know, no one is coming back from Survivor with a parasite anymore.
Though there was someone on the last season who got bit by a snake.
The snake just came and latched on you.
And I think now a lot of people, especially since the advent of social media, see it as a stepping stone to some kind of career, right?
Like most of the women who are going on The Bachelor or the men going on The Bachelorette are going to develop a social media following so that they can become an influencer of some sort rather than finding love.
So, you know, they're looking at being on the show as a professional opportunity, just like the women who were on Top Model did, but without social media, they're only,
professional opportunity was the modeling industry.
And in many instances, they didn't want any of the women who were models on Top Model.
Reality television is always a reflection of us, and I do think that tastes have changed, and the things that we deem are acceptable have changed.
Like, there's a season of Survivor where they divided everybody by race.
you know, after all the things that we've been through in the past 25 years, like things like that are no longer cool.
