Love the show BUT, from what I've read, they're Jitsie (Cheap) when it come to the contestants.

From the Show>>>> Contestants Pay Travel: , participants are responsible for their own flight travel and lodging expenses when competing in Culver City, California. Contestants must pay all fares, food (Uber-Cabs)

Yes..I know that the contestants are aware when they what sign up to be on the show.
Still ....the 2,000 bucks doesn't go very far....

Any thoughts?
