"accountability"
Posted by mickeyvon on 12-13-05 at 06:08 PM
Here's yet another potential 'twist' to help mix things up...

Have another "viewer's choice" at the end of each season - allowing the viewers to pick their favorite contestant and give them a prize (like the All-Stars with Rupert). It doesn't have to be a million dollars - it could even be just a car (look how much that meant to Cindy). They should let the players know ahead of time that the viewers will judge them in this capacity. It may change the dynamics just enough to provide a slightly different dynamic to the game.

Then again, it may just reduce the scheming which is so vital to the enjoyment of the show.

Just a thought...

This sounds alright in theory... but don't forget the power of editing. CBS would just edit according to who they wanted to be the viewer's choice.

Besides, whoever appears the most genuine on the show, IMO, is most likely to get speaking gigs later on to make money.

I wonder whether Cindy eventually got her job back?

And a Tooheys New Year!

The only way I can see this actually work is if the show was going on as we watched and gave some viewers the option to get live feed that way they would report on boards like this therefore revealing the true character of each player.
