I was having a conversation with a producer who used to work for a major reality show and had quit his job. I asked why. He said, “One day, after sitting through a two-hour production meeting where we strategized on how to make one of the women hate the other so they could get into a fight on camera, I came home and asked myself what I was doing for a living.” Let that sink in. There was a strategy meeting to create situations that would make two people actively despise each other.
