Re: What Do You Consider Reality TV?

[diet_poison]

It's scripted, but not...totally? Not in the same way. It's not about trying to construct a plot and a reality separate from the "actors" as real people. It's about thing that actually happen in reality.

Of course, that doesn't mean they're realistic. I used to think "reality TV" was an oxymoron, and maybe it kind of is, but compared to absolute fiction? the phrase makes more sense.

But that's actually what it does. People play themselves like characters in scenarios that are almost always entirely constructed for the purpose of a tv show. What it is is lazy fiction that uses the excuse of being 'real' to do away with all those pesky things like research, continuity, depth and quality.

I think maybe you and I just watch entirely different kinds of reality TV? Not being sarcastic here btw. I have no interest in stuff like Jersey Shore, I think maybe that's more what you're talking about? The kinds of reality TV I watch definitely have the drama dialed up to nine but they're not shows about peoples entire (real or fictitious) lives, just about really specific things (like What Not to Wear being about fashion and shopping). Do I think every thing on there is real, non-scripted, and sincere? Of course not. But is it trying to tell an actual fictional story with actual fictional characters? No, the people are all playing themselves, and the scenarios are at least based in reality.
