That's different. It's an entertainment network, not the news division. You have to watch this program with the same eyes and ears you use to watch commercials, because it uses the same tricks. 90% of it editing to make you positive something was said or confirmed that was only implied. For example, seldom do they actually pinpoint when they're doing something. They'll SHOW Scott and Tessa doing something, then afterwards Tessa will vo about how it's important to get away, and we'll see them do something else, so we assume that b followed a, but they never said it.<br /><br />If this were news, it would be problematic.

Surely you aren't dim enough to think that public interest/fans don't drive both of those things, because that's exactly the case. You think V/M would make money from skating in shows if no one showed up to watch? That they'd make money off endorsement contracts if there's no public to extract ad revenue from? There was no one interested in purchasing their book? Watching their show, for which they surely get compensation and can use to build their brand?

You're embarrassing yourself ...Stop, just stop. You're embarrassing yourself with that kind of speculation, 2:11 PM. It's what the Moirs and their ilk get off on. It's comical to them. They love to throw out all kinds of lies, half-lies, specifically posed photos, etc. to watch how the public reacts. They want people to question whether what they're seeing is real and they go to the most ridiculous lengths to do so. <br /><br />V/M haven't lost any "magic," if there was ever any there to begin with. It isn't magic that makes them spectacular skaters. It's years of the blood, sweat, and tears that comes from training to be Olympians with the help of a massive team around them. Their skating is more powerful than it's ever been before. They have more speed, deeper blade drive, and more preciseness than at any other time in their career. It's also not a kind of superhuman "magic" that has always been the reason they've connected so well on the ice. It's simply the way they're built and have grown together. It's not rocket science and it's not a mystery. Their skating is fine. If D/W weren't competing against them and being gifted marks, V/M would be winning every title with at least ten points to spare. <br /><br />The reality show is storyboarded, scripted, and everyone and everything caricatured within an inch of its life. The fake narrative is this: V/M, known for their chemistry, connection, and Olympic victory, want you to see the "real" them - the people that struggle. So they've taken what's real - the fact that an Olympic year is more stressful than most, and fabricated or overly exaggerated a series of struggles built upon that foundation. Such as, they've lost their connection! Oh no! This is devastating and potentially a season-ender because if they don't find it again, they'll lose the Olympics for sure! V/M are under a lot of stress, and both of them are having a hard time communicating that to one another. See how it plagues them? See how Scott gets angry? See how Tessa internalizes it? Poor V/M. Poor, poor them. Can they make it through this difficult time and emerge on the other side? Oh, the drama! But look! By the third episode, they're trying to get back on the same page but it's so hard you guyssssss. But they're getting there! Except, oh no! An injury to Scott! Another not at all conveniently placed set-back in the narrative! Can they make it through?!? Yes they can! And by the end of the series, they'll have miraculously located that lost connection and that fresh feeling will be back and everyone will be rooting for them to win the Olympics and also wouldn't it be great if they woke up and realized they're meant for each other? The fans can see it, why can't they? THE END.<br /><br />A twelve year old could write these scripts. It's possible a twelve year old DID write them, actually. STOP FALLING FOR IT. About 1-2% of what the public is shown is the real them, and they are acting out the parts whenever the cameras are on them, and that includes everything they do when they're at competitions when they're not actually skating their actual performances. Cassandra is playing a part. That is all she is doing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583966972735299482.post-46571552131864307382014-01-19T14:33:50.727-08:002014-01-19T14:33:50.727-08:00Money isn't a problem for VM.
