You Cannot Change Her Mind

When one wants to be real, one must be consistent in his/her stand as well as not mind criticism. If one could dish it, then he/she should be able to accept the consequences of actions or words. However, what might be deemed as hardheadedness might actually indicate the firmness of one’s stand on an issue.

After signing up with a major network, Late Bloomer (LB) was assigned to take over the schedule of Network Talent (NT). LB realized that this opportunity would, so far, be the biggest break of her career, and she would not let it pass. Before saying “yes,” LB knew the challenges that she would face. 

As LB struggled to make sure NT was not missed, the rating game was not kind. The show of LB, although gaining interest, hardly made impact on viewing habits of the local audience. Even with new faces, the show could not pull the desirable audience share. When the management noticed the trend, strategies had to be planned. 

Meanwhile, a good source of what viewers want to see is reflected in their feedback. Today, local radio and TV show often ask the audience to participate by sending online messages for suggestions. After reviewing the common factor, the results of viewer suggestions were not at all shocking. The viewers wanted to see Beautiful Tandem (BT) and Daring Couple (DC) on the show. 

Seeing LB interview either BT or DC would definitely raise the ratings, as their fandoms are very active in making guestings trend in social media. Naturally, the idea of guesting BT and DC reached LB. An insider told LB that airing interviews with either BT or DC could solve their ratings problems. However, unlike others who would prioritize a win-win strategy, LB refused. Thinking over the idea made LB realize she would be very uncomfortable in conducting potential interviews with BT and DC. There would be too much competition going on, and she, knowing herself, would not be neutral. Of course, even if she tried to be professional, her affinity with Another Couple (AC) would take over. Of course, LB would be very conscious in making sure that AC would shine above BT or DC. The flow would be very awkward, which LB allegedly reasoned out. Hence, the production team had no choice, as LB was not budging on her stand, which was “No!” to the guesting of BT or DC in her show.
