I think we love watching people that are flawed because we’re all flawed.
Meaning of the quote
We all have flaws, things about ourselves that aren't perfect. That's why we enjoy watching other people on TV or in movies who also have flaws. It makes them feel more real and relatable to us. We can see ourselves in their struggles and imperfections, and it makes us feel a little less alone in our own imperfections.
