I agree with you, absolutely, though I'm not sure of all their purposes - I don't think it's always just for shocks. But the long-term goal, at least I think, is to produce the most entertaining show they can and keep ratings high. Sometimes I think they're wrong about who to prop and who to plop - and it would be a better show if they just let things happen without interference - but nope - it's never gonna be that way

. I think they're constantly micro-managing everything, from edits to song and dance choices to choreography... well, everything they can think of to manipulate.
