You are...who you are...who you are!There's no doubt players are dumped into a control enviroment without the needed essentials dealing with adverse conditions because it makes for entertaining TV; but there is an ulterior motive.
It's easier to put on a false mask and come across nicer then you are by nature when everything is all hunky-dory. But generally a person's "true colors" come out when the chips are down. By making the castaways suffer out of their comfort zones it allows us to see the TRUE THEM.
You are...who you are...who you are!
I know how you gush with excitment when playing the edit card like Phil Helmuth plays pocket aces; but it's not like the Production throws all the names in a hat, pulls out a name and says, "AWWWW, let's manufacture a good edit for this player." Select another name..."OHHHHH, sorry but we're gonna purposely give you a bad edit."
I suppose I'll never be the one to stand in line and drink Production's "kool-aid." Simply put, you "earn" the edit you get be it good or bad.
You are...who you are...who you are!
