Honestly how many people really care about the manufactured statements that the contestants recite when asked simple questions by the panel?

lol, ya, to whatever extent that was worth watching it was only because the other stuff creates excitement for the competition.. take out the other stuff and there's no more competition lol, people don't actually want to watch cookie cutter Q&A

let's make an alternative pageant where we have actually smart and forward thinking women, and then every year we challenge their winner vs ours to a round table chat or something
