Dreamworld - Something big is coming

[DaptoFunlandGuy]

Wait, your response is "it works in dozens of other countries but it won't work here because reasons?"

It may work, it may not. It does cost a lot more to produce over here, sure, but I think they know a thing or two about how to run a show for profit. Even if it doesn't rate well, the production company is still likely to profit from it.

You are correct that society has moved on from the bum dance craze of 2001 - but we haven't moved THAT far away - if you think about it, Sara-Marie was your average nobody, standing in front of a camera, doing a silly dance that got broadcast to millions and suddenly everyone was doing it.

These days your average Tik-Toker does the same thing. 

I think producers have considered what works, and what doesn't. They've got recent lessons to learn from the recent seasons on other networks. Sure, they're playing to nostalgia by going back to their roots, but i'm fairly confident there's going to be sufficient modernisation that they'll capture an audience that is sufficient to support the season, and potentially get picked up by Paramount for at least one more.

(As long as it isn't the Dreamworld marketing team making the Tik Toks...  )

If Paramount is smart, they will host limited 24/7 live stream cameras on 10play with the full suite of cameras through Paramount+ to boost sales there.

Everything Paramount does with 10 is designed to drive subscribers to Paramount Plus - but they still give enough to the free to air platform to ensure viewership doesn't decrease. It sounds like something that would be right up their alley.
