Characterization

I think characteriztion is shown in many different reality TV shows. Many directors and producers try to create characters to appeal to an audience. They create characters that fit certain stereotypes. The interviews or confessionals could be used to show how dumb, self-centered, crazy or snobbish a character is. Shows like Jersey Shore and the Real World use interviews and confessionals to get the characters insight to what is going on throught out the show. I think that they are sort of used for narrating the show while we watch it. I also think think that they are another way to entertain the people who are watching the show.
