The ‘TV-Special Merit connection’ may work both ways; that instead of labouring to become special and thus get on TV, you can get on TV first, and have that make you special. (Shpancer 2010)

Reality Television Definition: “A television show in which members of the public or celebrities are filmed living their everyday lives or undertaking specific challenges”. (Collins English Dictionary – Complete and Unabridged. 1991, 1994, 1998, 2000, 2003)

Jersey Shore ‘star’ Snooki Nobel What? Birth Control?

How real is reality TV? Foul-mouthed celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay saves crappy restaurants. Episode ending voiceover says restaurants are now saved! Except they’re not. >60% are now closed. Masterchef – The eggs aren’t the only ones cracking. Not. Real. Sleep deprivation. Master Chef: Abu Ghraib? Try the shame omelette with a side of ritual humiliation bacon.

Questions! Why is it so popular? Does Reality Television have an influence on society? Too much? Bad? Good? Is it really real? Should it be presented as real if it’s not? Do producers placing ‘contestants’ under pressure have a duty of care? Kim Kardashian – What’s the attraction?
