The strategy is far more fascinating to me than listening to people cry about how hard their life is.

If I wanted to watch people cry and have some kind of breakthrough I would watch Biggest Loser.
I think those scenes have been really effective, especially this season in misdirecting viewers who use the edit in determining who stays/who goes. Was shocked to see people like Stephanie and James voted out in their boot episodes because the show had emotional scenes with them - made me think they were going to stay much longer.

As for entertainment I think it's been a good break from the constant emphasis on solely game-play and big moves in recent seasons, but I see where you're coming from.
