REALITY T.V.SHOWS-
PRESENT NEW INFORMATION
REALITY T.V. IS A GENRE OF TELEVISION PROGRAMMES THAT
DOCUMENTS UNSCRIPTED SITUATIONS AND OCCURRENCES OFTEN
WITH A PREVIOUSLY UNKNOWN CAST
THERE HAVE BEEN VARIOUS T.V SHOWS WHICH FOCUS ON ‘REAL’ PEOPLE
STARTING ABOUT THE MID 1940’S BUT THE FIRST REALITY SHOW WHICH
BROUGHT TOGETHER STRANGERS AND RECORDED THEIR
INTERACTIONS WAS A DUTCH SHOW CALLED ‘NUMBER 28’ FROM 1991
THESE SHOWS BECAME A PHENOMENON IN THE LATE 1990’S AND EARLY
2000’S WITH THE POPULARITY OF BIG BROTHER AND OTHER SHOWS
WHICH ARE NOW FRANCHISED WORLD WIDE
REALIT Y SHOWS HAVE FACED MUCH CRITICISM SINCE THEIR RISE IN
POPULARITY FOR BEING MISLEADING OR DECEPTIVE AND FOR
HUMILIATING AND EXPLOITING CONTESTANTS
THEY ARE ALSO CRITICISED FOR MAKING CELEBRITIES OUT OF
UNTALENTED PEOPLE WHO DO NOT DESERVE FAME
