That’s why I think shows like Married at First Sight pick people who are naturally more dramatic,interesting or emotional or outgoing or have “controversial” views.
I don’t think it’s quite scripted but rather that the contestants are “Tv worthy”.
Other shows I don’t watch such as Keeping up with Kardashians as it seems to me to be fake and scripted.
The Bachelor (Australian version) is ok but US one seems more scripted and the guy has to propose at the end but in the AUS one he doesn’t have to.
Also,The Bachelor seems to pick the contestants based on beauty.
I would like to see more non conventionally attractive people/average people on shows such as The Bachelor but I guess the producers don’t agree with me!
