[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]In my opinion, these reality shows keep pushing the envelope and screening less, something bad is bound to happen[/b] - (including 90 day fiancé  franchise).

Reminds me of The Dating Game when they had serial killer Rodney Alcala as one of the bachelors.  He was chosen by the bachelorette but she refused to go out with him because he just seemed too strange; she could have lost her life.[/quote]

There have been multiple suicides of UK reality tv participants (Love Island, Jeremy Kyle Show).  The UK government has tentatively started to look into this (the following link comes even before Caroline Flack's suicide): https://www.parliament.uk/business/committees/committees-a-z/commons-select/digital-culture-media-and-sport-committee/news/reality-tv-inquiry-launch-17-19/

Yes, I believe something bad is going to happen to one of these unstable people who are being exploited for entertainment, then cut loose to cope with the aftermath alone.  I'm the poster who expressed concern about Michael.  I think that if something happens to him that is mental-health related after the show, the producers are absolutely responsible.

Many 90 day participants have mental health issues, too, I think.

This kind of tv is just wrong.  It makes me think of The Truman Show.  We're heading in a terrible direction, really no better than tossing some prisoners to the lions for entertainment.[/quote]
