This season has nothing to work with...


You can tell. The producers are scrambling to make a story but they only have Corrinne...You can tell they are trying to stir crap up. You can tell she is only saying what the producers are telling her what to say.

That's because they always go down the 'we must create drama for ratings' route. They cast some great women this season, why not show us more about them and what they have accomplished instead rather than always trying to create drama?

Agree with you and OP. You can tell they are scrambling to make a storyline which is sad because there are some great girls this season. Too good for Nick.

They never tell people what to say. They ask leading questions, which the women (or men) answer, then edit out the questions. What Corinne or anyone else says is exactly what they themselves think (or think America wants to hear.)

You've noticed some people in past seasons have been reluctant to "open up" to the producers, and have thus been on camera less. But if Corinne (or any of the girls bitching about her) did not really think those things, chances are they would never be said.

But yeah, I think the producers walk into the room full of girls and say "what do you all think of Corinne?" and then edit out comments that are neutral or positive towards her.

Correct. As I think I've said a lot, these women in their mid 20s (most of them anyway) have grown up watching the show and are very aware of how they want to be presented on the show. They know the producers will try and lead them into doing things for drama, but this season most of them are smart enough not to fall into the producers traps.

That is an interesting thought. Sounds reasonable.
