Reality television has dramatically changed the viewing habits of people and is drawing them into a world of voyeurism, away from the typical entertainment television.
Reality television is The stars on that appear in reality TV show will do anything for fame and fortune, the more outrageous, the better.
Reality TV shows have increased after witnessing the success of Big Brother a popular offering where viewers watch people interact in a house.
The genre of reality TV has now extended and is now covering every area of life from monstrous kids that need a "Supernanny" to geeks paraded before beautiful girls "Beauty And The Geek".
This type of programming (reality TV) has become more preferred for many who find watching ordinary people, more entertaining than watching talented actors and comedians.
Watching people embarrass themselves in front of the cameras has become a sport for television viewers. Contestants may want to be a celebrity and wanting to be a celebrity can make people do some strange and outrageous things as many of the current reality shows prove. And it's clear that many viewers enjoy watching others make a complete fool of themselves.
Reality television has pushed genuine entertainment out of the way as more and more viewers watch reality TV show which some people might describe as mindless nonsense in preference to programs featuring great actors and excellent story lines.
The rise in reality television is a reflection of the changing tastes on viewers who are clearly don't fuse about quality of programming as they have been in the past. Maybe people will change their viewing habits when reality television is actually nothing of the kind. Some people say that reality TV should be name "contrived television" as it is a form of television relying on editing to make boring, everyday situations appealing to an audience that is easily pleased.
