I think it's more that they don't care about anything except the TV ratings. The side effects of this are:
- They're paranoid about anything that they perceive could jeopardise the ratings, which is why the live stream is being cut so much more lately.
- They don't want to try anything new
- They fall back into tired Australian TV tropes - white het couples
- They emulate Love Island
- They're scared of airing any kind of organic content. Everything must be tightly controlled with diary room cutaways where housemates have been prompted to give narration. There hasn't been one daily show where they let a scene play out naturally.
So all in all, paranoia and lack of production talent is the defining characteristic of this season's daily shows.
The thing is, even if people knew Vinnie was evicted, they would still tune in to see it on TV and also see his interview. But you won't be able to convince paranoid production this.
