I Love RTV!

There is just something about reality TV that hooks me to watching it. It started with me loving Survivor, to watching the Bachelor every weekend, and now to watching shows such as The Jersey Shore on MTV. Reality shows have definitely have evolved from the time they first become popular. While I do enjoy watching the ridiculous types of reality TV shows such as The Jersey Shore, I like it solely for the reason that the stupidity of the characters are entertaining and very comical. I also really love the idea of The Real World, when seven (or eight) strangers get to live in a house together and we get to see their interactions with one another. I love the fact that the people in these types of reality TV shows are average people like us, and not paid actors. The things they do are supposed to be real (hopefully!), and thats what makes it more interesting to watch. One thing that has changed from reality TV shows in the past like Survivor, is I feel like today, a lot of reality TV shows are more scripted, which defeats the purpose of REALity. However, to me, whether it is 100% true or not, it can still be very entertaining!
