   Me & several others threatened to quit & they threatened us with lawsuits for breaching work contracts. It's only reason some of us kept working - despite hating everything about the productions. We couldn't afford to fight back.

     FYI - I worked on 2 different #RealityTV shows in #Canada & after those lived work experiences - told everyone I could - don't agree to go on these shows. It's almost all scripted, not reality. Crews are forced to put pressure on voluntary participants - who rarely know WTF they're signing up for & producers exploit naivety. Don't chase easy fame/easy money - they both come at high personal costs. Don't agree to be traumatized on TV, for money. You'll regret it.
