Reality television is a genre of television programming which presents unscripted dramatic and humorous situations. It features ordinary people instead of actors. Reality TV has increased after witnessing the success of Big Brother a popular offering where viewers watch people interact in a house. Big Brother is a famously well known world wide reality TV show, and it is also the best known program for this type of genre. It consists of a group of 16 contestants who are from different gender, social class, ethnicities, and gender groups, who are living together in the Big Brother house and are isolated from the outside world and are being watched, all to win a cash prize . What is different about reality TV is that it claims to show “realism” and it exposes various representations of people. Reality TV has dramatically changed the viewing habits of people and is drawing them into a world of voyeurism, and away from the typical entertainment television.
