  • Heel–Face Turn: If you’re nice to her in book 3, she’ll turn against Vince and end their engagement.

  • Mean Boss: She forces her employees and contestants to toe her line, callously gets rid of Whitney by throwing her luggage at her, and gets angry at Jen when Jamie wasn't eliminated during the first week of the show.

  • Showrunner: She has been producing America's Most Eligible for 10 seasons, until she gets fired after the Finale of Book 1.

Jennifer "Jen" Espinoza

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/amejen.jpg
One of the two producers of America's Most Eligible. She becomes the new showrunner at the end of the All-Stars season.

  • The Mentor: To Jamie, giving them tips on how to survive the show.

  • Showrunner: She gets promoted to Showrunner in Book 3, after Carson realizes that he isn't fit for the job.

Omar

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ameomar.jpg
The other producer of America's Most Eligible

  • Beleaguered Assistant: In Book 2, he ends up frustrated by all the mistakes made by Carson, to the point Omar and Jen have to handle basic stuff like getting insurance for the contestants.
  • Consummate Professional: He is the second best producer in the show after Jen, and his concern about Jamie and Jen's relationship is purely professional regarding the integrity of the show.
  • The Dragon: He isn't as openly antagonistic as Piper, but he tries his best to help her create drama.
  • Foil: To Jen. Both are line producers in charge of mentoring the contestants for ratings. Unlike Jen, who has more empathy for contestants like Jamie, Omar is fishing for more drama without hesitation, whether his contestants like it or not.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He may be abrasive and willing to milk drama at first, but he also cares about the well-being of contestants and respects Jen for her work in the show. He becomes furious at Carson's nonchalant attitude at not getting the proper insurance forms for the snorkel date because he was concerned that someone might drown.
  • The Mentor: To Wrenn once they get promoted to junior producer while Jen gets promoted to showrunner.

Carson Stewart

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/amecarson.jpg
The host of America's Most Eligible. After Season 10, he replaces Piper as showrunner, though he loses this job halfway through All-Stars.

  • Endearingly Dorky: He is constantly trying to provide new gimmicks for the show, including poems and puns. Unfortunately, Piper always cuts away from him before he can deliver them.
  • The Dog Bites Back: After years of being berated and mistreated by Piper, Carson allied with Ivy to keep her in the game, so he could have material for an ongoing conflict, which shows the producers that he has better ideas than Piper. This results in Piper getting fired and Carson taking over as the new showrunner.
  • Extreme Doormat: He doesn't dare stand up to Piper's domineering behavior towards him. At least not until the Finale.
  • I Just Want to Be Special: The main reason that he sabotages Piper and takes over her job is because he had become tired of nobody listening to his ideas for the show.
  • Playing Both Sides: He deliberately builds up the conflict between Ivy and Jamie in order to boost ratings, including helping the former to cheat in order to ensure she reaches the finals. His plan is successful; Jamie and Ivy end up in the finals together, and the executives give Carson credit for saving the show's ratings, and decide to promote him to showrunner.
  • Pungeon Master: He is very fond of puns, much to Piper's annoyance.
  • Sanity Slippage: It's implied that he's become very stressed since becoming the showrunner and can't keep up with the demands of his new job. He has an angry outburst at Mackenzie when she requests not to be partners with Vince, which is very out of character for him. He also can't seem to remember whether he did or didn't do something, and Omar and Jen constantly have to remind him.
  • Showrunner: He takes over as Showrunner in Book 2, after convincing the high executives that Piper has run out of ideas.
  • The Starscream: He agreed to ally with Ivy to make Piper look bad to their boss and take over as show runner.
  • Took a Level in Kindness: In-Universe. According to Adam, Carson used to be more shallow and didn't care much for the contestants, which is a huge contrast to how he presents himself in Season 10.
