Chapter 242: Chapter 242. Reality TV

"We are trying out something new this week. As you know, the format of the program keeps it from not getting boring, but for the last few episodes, the contestants haven't been great. None of them did as we expected, and we can't really do a lot on that. We already have all sorts of tests before the contestants appear on the show. We can't make it tougher to get better contestants."

A man with a bushy beard said as he scratched the back of his hair. If one had to describe him, he gave off a manly impression despite having a beer belly. 

"So, the ratings aren't doing well?"

Wade was sitting in front of him, and he nodded at those words before asking. Both of them were sitting in a lounge area on the ground floor of the Panther network office, Los Angeles. 

For the record, Panther TV network was the same channel that had the rights to X-Star. Though, Wade wasn't here for anything related to X-Star. 

It was for a different reality show.
