I hate it when they are acting as if a camera wasn't there.


I hate it when they for example meet the family for the first time, the door opens and often a cameraman is already inside the house shooting Ty and the others from the inside. And yet the family acts surprised.
Same with a lot of things.

When the family gets to enter their new house after a week. They come out of the limo, and start walking toward the house....now, is there a cameraman in every single room at this point just sitting and waiting for them?
Because when the family opens every door inside the house or enters every single hallway or room etc, yep, a camerman is there shooting them. Does this show have like 20 cameramen? It is so hard not to hate.

They built one of these houses near us just a few weeks ago. The families know that they are a finalist, they just don't know if they are the ones chosen until the crew shows up to suprise them. They published stories about all three finalist families in our local paper the day before the family is suprised.

And yes, there are probably cameras in all the rooms to catch the homeowners entering each room. I'm sure they don't really let them just run from room to room in any random order. I'm sure a cameraman waits in a given room just before someone enters, then moves to another room for the next person.
