I don’t enjoy reality shows. I mean I can see why other people like them, but to me they aren’t entertaining. I feel like American reality shows aim for comedy through people’s unbelievable idiocy and extreme mood swings. When I watch something like The Real House Wives of ¬¬___ , Jersey Shore, Keeping up with the Kardashians made me furious. All I saw was entitled, rich, and privileged men and women who think they are actually important act stupid and start drama for ratings. Honestly, I don’t think anyone in a reality show could ever experience a fulfilling and happy life. However, I see why people like it. People like seeing unscripted drama and idiocy. To most people it is entertainment and honestly I guess its entertaining. Reality shows have had a huge impact on cultures around the world. Everyone knows the name Kim Kardashian, or back in the day Snooki, shows how far reaching the influence of reality shows is on our everyday lives. I feel like both articles point to the fact that reality shows are only going to rise in popularity and will probably be the one thing to stay through all types of…
Reality TV has is a bizarre concept. To shows like American Idol to shows such as The Bachelor, Reality TV has a wide range of shows mostly suggestive to the audience, or shocking language coming from the cast in the shows.…
On the other hand, some reality shows promote a good message to society. Shows like American Idol, America’s Got Talent, and X Factor are prime examples of a good quality reality TV show that is strictly fun and full of entertainment. These programs allow kids and adults alike the opportunity to reach their dreams if their dreams happen to be worldwide super-stardom. And who doesn’t dream of being famous every once and awhile? Shows like the ones mentioned above enable people to chase that dream.…
Fact is, these shows has taken over the airwaves and in addition taken away a few values that were once beneficial to society. The most watched reality shows send negative messages subliminally to some viewers simply because they identify with these what these reality stars are doing. A lot of the younger viewers think that these people are role models, do not understand how to discipline themselves enough to leave the entertainment world in their fantasies. Fighting, personal intimacy, teen pregnancy and suicides were once things not thrown into every scene of the media. “The more people are exposed to any message, even terrible ones, the more likely they will be accepted as the norm. (Taylor, 2011) They idolize these regular people and do not understand that these shows are not to be reenacted. These actors know that if they add drama they will get high rating and be paid, they are prompted to inspire while entertaining.…
It seems that almost every TV channels has their own reality TV show. It’s crazy what they do on those shows, most of the episodes on Jersey Shore the cast drinks so much that they black out or Chef Ramsey cusses out one of the contestant’s family because they didn’t cook the fish properly. The negative aspects exceed the positive one vastly. According to Google the definition of a reality TV show is “a genre of television programming that presents purportedly unscripted dramatic or humorous situations” (Google). The truth is that most of these shows are rehearsed and scripted which makes it even worse because we should know that its not actually reality TV it’s more like unreality TV These shows are well known for harmfully influencing our behaviour, our minds and give us a shallow prospective on life. It’s outrageous how unreal these shows are, how they lower society’s values and how it has such a huge impact on us. Shows that portray any kind of extreme negative behaviour should not be allowed on TV. Instead people should watch educational shows or game shows.…
Reality television has been around far longer than many give it credit. Many viewers forget about the very first reality television shows such as Big Brother, Survivor, and non-trashy versions of The Bachelor that displayed things such as alliance, friendship, and character development through the praises of its audience. Although newer shows have been accused of growing "trashier"; I feel that this change is actually only in response to the demand of its audience. Show popularity drops when the message they portray becomes "unhip", or "uncool". So in order to keep up ratings shows were forced to show what people wanted to see. As our country has slowly let go of morals and standards, its people have been forced to adapt. Reality television has been forced to diminish all possibilities for ever being labeled as "moral". It has taken a direction for the worse and shows today lack little meaning or value.…
Reality TV has unseen effects and is detrimental to society. Reality TV is the current trend on TV that has brought back the buzz to television, but it also has unforeseen effects on its viewers. Some examples of Reality TV shows include: American Idol, The Bachelorette, Americas next top model, fear factor, etc...These shows range from singing talents, overcome their fears, to looks and beauty. Reality TV brings drama and voyeurism to its viewers by making its viewers too involved, taking them away from more important matters, and by wasting valuable resources on pointless entertainment.…
When you think about the content and fibre of reality television there's really not much there. Many people feel that reality television is the best production to come from ABC, NBC and all the corporate conglomerates trying to make easy money. That's exactly what they are doing. Selling easily produced television to easily minded recipients. The first problem with reality TV is that it isn't even reality. As soon as a camera is placed in front of someone, they automatically think that they are actors. A true, original example of reality TV is Candid Camera, showing peoples real reactions to an unexpected situation. The primary basis for many of these new shows (but not all) seems to be to put people in painful, embarrassing, and humiliating situations for the rest of us to watch - and, presumably, laugh at and be entertained by. I believe the problem with all of these reality TV shows is the joke factor. All of these shows are a joke, it's like watching a daytime soap opera; only unfortunately visible at a prime time hour. It is really quite painful to witness the same poor saps going at it over the same girl or guy. The continuing popularity of these shows is a clear representation of the intelligence of North Americans. I say we rid of all reality TV and replace them with shows covering the lives of animals, which sadly would be more interesting.…
Aside from the horrifying incompetence, reality television is a complete waste of time. Children and teens waste hours of watching reality television. Stupid dialogue and inappropriate behavior is no reason to waste hours of their lives! They could be doing more important things than to watch reality TV. By allowing them to watch reality television, parents are giving children the right to follow these “reality TV stars’” horrible example and waste away their lives.…
Reality TV has become a hot topic in the United States as of late. There are those who argue that reality shows are harmless entertainment and those who contend that reality shows are stereotypical and disgusting.…
The characters in some reality shows go through difficult situations and face many kinds of problems. As more conflicts are shown, people become more curious and have the desire to watch the show over and over to see how the conflicts are resolved. This just goes to show us that society loves to watch shows with conflict and emotion. The Stanford Prison Experiment would leave people wanting more. Two weeks and a new set of candidates would start a new experiment, and people would still want more. Reality TV is built on the foundations of exposing and exciting human emotions. In this aspect some reality TV shows have successfully portrayed human emotions. There is no doubt that reality TV presents the viewers with small aspects of real life.…
Some of the problems with reality TV range from ethics to the actual people on the show. When reality TV first hit the big time with MTV's Real World, things were calm since no one knew what to expect. Now with the deluge of reality tv shows on television right now, it was only a matter of time before bad writing, contestant exploitation, and blatant rip-offs were to inhabit the industry,…
Reality television, in general, can be considered fifty percent real and fifty percent acting.

The concept of reality shows has been borrowed from western media. These shows clash with our cultural ethos and are making people less tolerant and much more demanding, leading to break up of family systems and erosion of moral values.…
