Western survival shows be like:
- You have 3 random celebs, maybe 4. At least one of them is someone that people find quit annoying. They are the judges
- The shows are mainly made to find a single person as the winner of the show
- Behind the scenes they pre-cast the people so they can give some people false hope, because they need horrible singers to spice up the show
- You get to see maybe 100 of over a thousand auditions during the show of wich 10 are very very bad, 10 are very good and the rest is average
- There are a lot people who really end up blaming themself on TV cause of the false hopes they got told before entering the show
- The judges most likly don't care for what people say and so openly speak out their mind and maybe even insult the participant with it
- There is allways a audience watching
- There is also at least one of the participants with an intense life-story (example, someone cries and says their mom just recently passed away)
- The shows are all super faked up and you barly even notice how fake it is
- After some scenes of the people practicing a song you see the apparently next round of the show
- After some episodes they go onto a big stage and often sing against eachother
- The eliminations are first only based on the judges deciding who comes next but than the audience can vote via calling phone numbers
- The person who wins the show is someone you most likly forget in the next week and than never hear of them again after they droped 1 song

- The elimination is mostly based on a mix of the tv-audience votes and the judges vote and shows who have an audience in the studio sometimes also have a voting system for these people like giving them buttons to press on
