Payout Perspective:
The episode saw another Harley-Davidson product placement with Travis Browne showing up at the house with motorcycles. This season is fine but it lacks a sufficient amount of interesting known characters to garner steady live viewership. The DVR numbers bump are on par with past seasons but the live +SD ratings are sagging this season.
the show is boring, plain and simple. And far too dramatic for grown men
