SPLASH!!

I watched the first episode of Splash and think the first 2 divers got a bad call. At the beginning, both Kesha and Katherine Webb did more difficult dives than the 3 men who followed, but they received the lowest scores (in the 6s)because they went first – and the 2 male judges had no idea how badly the following 3 men would dive. As it was, a 400-pound man who toppled over and fell into the water, scored a full point higher than either of the first 2 women who did “something” dives that showed a semblance of skill.

Although the womens' dives were equal to or better than the 3 male divers who dove after them, Kesha had to leave, but Katherine was saved, so she will dive again.

All 12 contestants should have dived a first time before any scores were given that would eliminate anyone. The technique of each contestant could be evaluated in the first round, with pointers for improving performances given by the judges. Then, let the competition begin with a baseline performance index guiding the judges' scoring.

I’m not going to watch further episodes of this reality show because it isn’t interesting or entertaining, and it’s also unfairly scored.
