IMO, ABC punished Sean for standing up for Kaitlyn and Aries. That will show him!

I would really need to look in the mirror and ask myself why did I spend 3-4 years to get a degree to be known as a reality star. I wouldn't put my marriage under that scrutiny just because of being greedy. Sean and Catherine got TB money, got the DWTS money, the wedding money, multiply appearances on The Bachelor money, Wife swap money and MBC money. So, when will enough be enough? When will they start working and stop relying on these reality shows?

I agree. Money is nice and all, but you have to draw the line somewhere. Putting my relationship issues on TV for all to see would be way over it. But clearly not everyone thinks like that and that's fine, but don't act so righteous and above it all when you're not. JMO.

Right?! Thank You. I can understand The Bachelor, can understand DWTS, even the wedding, I can even give CWS a slide but MBC. Never! Money ain't worth my marriage being scrutinized by now I should be preparing living away from reality shows and growing as a person, grow my business, if I have one but not being known as a reality star. Its degrading. They have been given opportunities and took them but the is a time to say enough is enough and move away from reality shows.

Everyone has to earn money to live. I do not call them greedy because they did the show. No one is required to watch the show. It is totally a risk of production to pay out to have people on the show. Maybe it will be a dud and no one will watch, but they did the show they got paid the money that was agreed end to. The thing about all reality TV is no one is required to watch or read about them, I do not understand why there is critiziing of reality TV participants.

Um... reality shows like every show has an audience and reality shows are very cheap to produce unlike TV shows. For MBC to have been renewed that means it did well for it ratings, has an audience, the the cable made money of it. I can argue who to say that it wont be the highest rated season. Bleh.

My initial reaction to Sean's blog was positive. It was refreshing to see his honesty. But after reading through these posts, I really do wonder if he's preparing his fan base for the backlash. He more or less stated (imo) that he regrets doing MBC...so I tend to think this is not going to end well for them.

Please excuse my stupid question but what is MBC? I dont see that here in Canada.

Why would Sean and Catherine need that so early into there marriage which is not even 5 yrs old yet?

by lovebites8727 Wed Dec 02, 2015 1:15 am

^ read his blog

by umngirl Wed Dec 02, 2015 1:17 am

As Sean stated on his blog, the main reason was the money. They don't have any big issues (unlike the other couples this season which have some real doozies) but little things they could work on. They did it very much for the same reason Trista/Ryan did the show.

It's pretty obvious to me that Sean & Cat are greedy famewh%%%%. Quit doing this reality crap. No amount of $$$ IMO is worth putting your personal life on TV.
The backlash will be even worse if Sean dares to criticize anyone else for extending their 15 minutes.

by Seabear Wed Dec 02, 2015 5:29 am

While it is absolutely any persons choice to go on a reality show or shows...I do not want to hear complaining and whining about edit and exposure after the fact. I would think dignity would trump $$$ money but that is just me. Why would anyone want to go on TV and talk about their sexual problems. It defies logic. Suspect
