Comment on HBO Max has really turned to shit since the Skydance takeover

Reality is great, why don’t you like it?!

You take actors that don’t need to be paid union rates, very low edit costs, nearly no writing, and you pad the drama out with as many camera swaps as you can.

Oh, now that there’s a whole universe, let’s remove regular people. You remember Allan from The Dates of Wrath, Jared from Big Brother Orphans S24, and Sara from Lingerie Island, and Nina Bimbina from Real Housewives of Bumfuck Nowhere?

Now you can watch them on Totally Not Mafia But In A Castle!

That sounds like a reason to invest in RealityTV; a reason not to watch it.

  Oh, you want to watch TV, this is all for our shareholders. Low costs high viewership.
