re: ***Official Utopia on FOX Season Thread (Spoilers)***

Fox has put a lot of eggs in this basket with two dedicated time slots for an entire year. That alone has me intrigued.

Hopefully this isn't true for the US version..I'm not so confident after reading this. This quote is from the comments

First of all, the 'no production crew inside Utopia at any time' is also true for the Dutch version.

However,
in the Dutch version, there is a room with a microphone where they can
push a button and talk to the people 'behind the scenes', who are not on
the terrain themselves. The viewers however don't get to see/hear these
conversations. Originally this was intended for when the participants
really needed help (they can ask for a consult with a psychologist for
example). But as the show progressed it became clear that there was much
more 'steering' going on in some situations as they wanted people to
believe.

People are often called to this room, for all kinds of
reasons (for example when trying to cut down a tree that isn't allowed
or discussing things they don't want the viewers to know). Other times
people come out of the room and start certain conversations or take
certain actions (in order to continue some 'storyline' for example).

Hence
it sometimes is unclear whether or not certain actions or ideas or what
not are coming from the participants themselves or not. And having a
room in which conversations take place that are not recorded/shown does
not help that situation.

Don't get me wrong, the participants are
real people, the conversations and what not are real and that's why I
like the show and, in particular, the streams. And with all the rules
and regulations here in the Netherlands you probably can't avoid having
someone keeping an eye on things, so SOME production involvement isn't
necessarily a bad thing.

Yea, but it sounds like the battery room turned into production intervening

1) That's another country

2) There will always be rumors of shite like that in reality TV shows.. anytime something happens people don't like they make up reasons for it.

I'm already never watching this show again due to production interference.
