Here is my reasoning since you decided to really rebut me. Maybe understanding will help you get why I said that:
1. I have a hard time following shows with a lot of people. When I know ahead of time who makes it, I am able to more easily follow their stories and keep my eye on them. It simply makes it easier for me.
2. I am not expecting to know everything. But, personally, I get hooked into shows more when I have an idea what is going to happen. Maybe that's a side effect from my anxiety issues but I like knowing the outcome and it doesn't spoil the process for me one bit.
3. Based off some of the crap said, I feel like TPTB think they're playing us like fools. Which, personally, leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
4. I'm annoyed for the rookies who have to hide their excitement. Come on, it's a dance team where these girls are making a pittance, at least let them enjoy the spoils of their hard work.
