I have no problem with that- all of these reality shows cast "types" they
believe will cause conflict. But people become better defined as they get
older and they're more set in their ways, which I think adds a little color
to the types of conflict. I certainly don't want to watch a season of
Survivor with all old folks but I would like to see at least 25% of the
contestants be over the age of 40. Aside from All-Stars, I don't think
they've had that ratio since about season five.
