No, it is because there has been an escalating trend in the US of invoking emotional responses by making every single thing in 'reality' shows overly dramatic. US reality show audiences really love conflict and most of these shows repeat clips multiple times to pad out the show, not because they are pushing a time limit.
Makes sense. Reality shows aren't really my thing, so I only ever see individual episodes that get a lot of buzz (like this one). Though watching it on YT, I just assumed the repeated clips were just recaps from before the commercial breaks.
I don't watch them either, unless my wife talks me into it. They really are getting worse over time too.
