we like it cause its real?

I think we like reality tv not only because its "real" (which most of it isn't anyways) but for many different reasons. People want to see others in the lifestyle they wish they had, or they want to see others struggle so that they feel better about their own lives. Sometimes they just watch to get a laugh at the idiots acting ridiculous. We are drawn to many different types of characters because they are unlike us... I think that is the main draw. Everyone is curious about other people, and watching reality television is an easy gateway to that.

This is true, curiosity leads people to watch TV in general, and reality tv really does express the way different people interact. Being able to 'get to know' these characters allows us to see how others behave and how what is abnormal to us may be completely normal for others.
