I Must admit that I am somewhat addicted to watching reality tv shows but there always come a point that I just find another to watch in it's place because it all gets so silly that it's almost beyond ridiculous, and I wonder if the actor's do it for the coverage or if the show producers do it for the ratings. I have watched a lot and now that I'm almost bored with regular shows and reality getting to be too much, I'm needing something to challenge me but I almost always go back to the reality shows, anything ever just stay real anymore?

people now a days are looking for something real. everything is so package, commercial, and down right post modern. b.s. that's why i just stopped watching television all together. or i just stick to documentaries.

I want to say that with reality shows, it's mainly all scripted and all the drama is scripted as well to create this nonexisting "drama" that bring viewers in. That's what I've heard and I totally believe it. I find reality shows kind of boring. I know I've seen a few episodes of shows like Jersey Shore, The Kardashians (I don't know the name of the shows they have, but I Know they have a ton), and a few more here and there and I haven't really enjoyed them or gotten into them ever. Although I know back in high school, when I was home sick, I would watch the Real World on MTV marathons - they get kind of addictive, I will admit to that! Now the only kind of reality shows I really like are game-show types or contest-types like The Biggest Loser.
