That was the thing though, they took all of the benefits of society and brought them to paradise with almost none of the negative parts. The only thing that ruined their ability to maintain peace was their jealousy and lack of trust in each other. All they had to do was tell them what was really going on, put their egos aside, and listen to each other and they would've gotten along fine. But no one wants to watch a show where everyone gets along. Conflict is entertaining if you can't learn to live without it. I guess it breeds diversity. Everyone's always like 'oh, you do things like this? i do things almost exactly like that except I don't do these things and I do these things instead'. Conflict. Something different. Intrigue.

I just remember that being the popular opinion at the time. I think the main thing was people felt like there was gonna be a more cathartic ending instead of just fizzling out like it did.
