After the suicide of one of the Gonzo Girls during a live taping of their variety show, the remaining members hire a crew to document their road trip across America against their networks wishes. The girls plan to air their piece about the millennial lifestyle on Sweeps Week with or without their producers? approval.

Why do the Gonzo Girls want to document a road trip after the suicide of on of their members? ?What is the cause-and-effect link between the suicide and the road show? ?Are they exploiting the publicity of the suicide ?to enhance their ratings, to advance their own careers and celebrity status? ?If so, that seems callous and selfish, hardly the way to induce an audience to invest their time and money to watch, imho.

Also, what’s ?at risk in this scenario? ?What are the stake? ?Why should?we care, root for them to succeed?

And is it realistic that they can air their piece over the objections of the producer? ?Maybe they can pirate a copy of the video to YouTube but if the network opposes it, it isn’t going on air on the network. ?Or is that the producer opposes and the network supports them? ?In any event, so what? ?Again, what’s at stake? ?Why should a ?viewing audience care, want to root for them to succeed?
