Nine would have to be very brave to dump Scott Cam if that’s the path they choose to take should The Block be renewed for a new season. We all know how House Rules went after Johanna Griggs left (albeit she chose to leave). I’d say that Scotty is The Block.
To be fair, Shaynna is a judge, so she’s always going to have less airtime to Scotty and the contestants.
I think she’s good in small doses. She’d become annoying if she appeared all the time.
The big scandal is that one of the contestants took a photo of the production schedule and then gave it to all the other contestants.
So they all know the order in which the rooms will be completed.
From what I have read, it is real. (Please take it as a grain of salt until it’s actually revealed - but it does sound like the type of overhyped crap they’d think up)
It was revealed on Wednesday night in the promo for next week that this is indeed the scandal, complete with the dramatisation of Scotty erasing the whiteboard in his office. Interestingly it reveals the series was shot around March this year (if that wasn’t already known).
Josh and Luke are the cheaters who took a photo of the production schedule.
They also technically cheated tonight by having one of their fiances to come and help style their wardrobe.
Pretty moronic for the production schedule to be mapped out on a whiteboard for anybody to see. Is Scotty one of these old school people who is incapable of using of a scheduling app on a smart phone?
This is why I think that much hyped “cheating scandal” is completely set up. Surely any reality TV program would do everything possible to ensure the contestants can’t get anywhere near (let alone in) that room with a production schedule, especially these days?!
If it’s not in writing then it’s not a rule. They’re manufacturing a crisis. If it isn’t a published rule as part of being on the show then it’s not cheating. Contestants aren’t mind readers.
