Reality TV Shows: "How Real is Reality?" Flashing lights, clicking cameras and lavish lifestyles – all reality TV shows the same? Wrong. Imagine going to the mailbox: pajamas, slippers and a cup of coffee. Grab your newspaper and TV guide to go in and start your daily routine. This is a real life situation that would fall within the definition of the word “reality”. No one would click record or take time out of their day to watch someone do something they could personally experience. However, chances are that the guide you just picked up somehow contains list after list of different reality shows. How is this possible? Reality television stretches the title "reality" a little too far as it has been accused of providing scripts, staging and modifying "real" life situations, dramatizing and influencing the behavior of cast members, and promoting unethical values ​​for a monetary gain. Any group or organization, regardless of size or amount of money they have, would be able to bring down this multi-billion dollar genre, but if viewers and program producers took the shows for what they are, entertainment programs, then it would reduce the amount of deception that surrounds him. All you have to do is Google the definition of "Reality Television" to find what makes a TV show fit into the vague genre of Reality TV. Wikipedia defines the genre as "... a genre of television programs that document unscripted situations and real events, and often feature a previously unknown cast..." (Wikipedia). The dictionaries Bing, Google and Yahoo have all referred to the words a a similar definition.This means that everything outside the boundaries of... middle of the paper... is tested the next day Record numbers tune in to the many channels that broadcast Reality Television programs, then isn't it hypocritical to hit them while their DVR is already preset to record them YES; fictional entertainment (TIMES). The differences between a fictional film found in theaters and “The Simple Life with Paris Hilton” are actually practically nil. Perhaps instead of being considered evil and immoral, Reality Television should be better classified because after being accused of providing scripts, staging and editing "real" life situations, dramatizing and influencing the behavior of cast members, and promoting unethical values ​​for monetary gain, that's hardly the reality.
