Is RTV getting too real

To me reality television is suppose to represent or document real life. However, it is also for entertainment, and we all know that means violence, sex, drugs for the majority of viewers. So shows like "Intervention" follow different people who are dealing with an issue like alcoholism or drug addiction. Well that example of the lady drinking and then driving is pushing it because she could have been seriously hurt if she crashed. Most other shows that the cast members fight, camera crews should intervene when it gets bad. Many want to see violence but it does not take someone to get seriously hurt to be entertaining.

I completely agree with what your saying... The camera crew should get a certain amount of action and then know when to intervene. It would be so wrong for the crew to watch her get into that car and drive and hurt an innocent person. I think it would ultimately hurt the shows moral standpoint if they let too many bad instances happen on their show.

I agree with what you are saying as well. How can they allow people to set such a terrible example to younger people? Reality show producers should really find a place to draw the line. Promoting drunk driving is definitely not the way to go.
