THE TAKE
What worked and what I would change
It is easy to follow who is left, how they can lose and what they can win.
Most comments talk about the people. That tells us what viewers remembered.
The opening shows something big, but it takes too long to tell us what can go wrong.
The middle needs one clear change so viewers can feel the story moving.
Introduce fewer people at once. Pick one or two people to follow before the first person leaves.
Add a choice, loss or rule change near the middle. Show why it matters before the next section.

Middle moment
adorable, but you have been eliminated. I'm sorry. >> Do I go down the stairs? >> [laughter]
Ending moment
>> At least you won a brand new Tesla. >> It's all me, though. May the best man win. >> Drop ball.
These moments come from the transcript. They are not real audience-retention points.
