• REALITY TELEVISION—THE WOMEN’S GENRE.
• The popular culture phenomenon of reality television has exploded full force ever since the debut of Survivor in the summer of 2000. ... This seems to be the basic concept and backbone of all reality television programs and formats. The final theory of this paper is to attempt to distinguish if reality television will remain a successful genre in the market, and if so what the next level of the genre will entail.
• The methods and procedures involved in this project consisted of researching the four genres that hybridize to form reality television and attempting to distinguish what elements, formats, and attributes of these genres are present in the new genre. The remaining research consisted of reviewing articles, transcripts, and statements from authorities on reality television along with directors, producers, and executives of network broadcasting companies and their explanations of their productions.
• The four genres, along with the new genre of reality television, seemed to thrive on the extremes of making the humiliations of the private sphere a public spectacle.
• Ultimately, because we are currently in the middle of the reality television boom it is difficult to establish a perfect vantage point in order to assert the definite direction of the genre, whether it will remain established, successful, and popular, and what exactly the implications of this new genre are on members of society. Overall, it seems as though reality television is making all of the adequate procedures and advances in order to establish itself as a successful and permanent genre. ...

• Is this the plot of America's newest reality television? The answer is both yes and no. It is actually the plot of Dan Minahan's Series 7: The Contenders: a film that is, quite obviously, an attack on the television industry's lack of morality. ... Every year new television programs appear, each one pushing the envelope of what is socially acceptable and morally responsible. The newest addition to this list is reality based television shows. Many people feel that reality based television shows have crossed the boundary between what is morally appropriate to air and what isn't. Many people argue that reality television brings a new element of moral compromise which negatively affects society while in actuality, reality television is no worse than any fictitious broadcast. ...

• Harsh Reality: Unscripted TV Reality Shows Offensive to Families.
• Although reality-based television series are not a new phenomenon (MTV created The Real World over a decade ago), it was not until the debut of Survivor on CBS during the summer of 2000 that the “reality” genre managed to overcome the “lowbrow” stigma attached to it by sensationalistic specials like When Animals Attack and Caught in the Act, and became not only popular, but respectable too.
• But the fact that reality programs have become mainstream, does not mean that they’ve also become family-friendly. ...
• Because reality series are designed to last only a few weeks, they don’t follow the traditional television “season,” the way a scripted series does. ...
• Overall, the PTC reviewed all of the thirty-eight reality series that aired during that period, (twenty-five of which were broadcast series, thirteen were cable) for a total of 125. ...

• Is television becoming a reality?.
• That depends on your definition of television. According to the Encyclopaedia Britannica, television is the electrical transmission of pictures in motion and the simultaneous electrical transmission of the accompanying sounds. In that sense, television is a reality, as it exists.
• In terms of television programs being reality, most television programs are of real life:.
• But there are those programs (which we are by now thinking about) which are fictitious constructions, and in that would seem to be not part of reality. ...
• There are as many television worlds as there are television show concepts, and all that happens in those seemingly fictitious television shows is actually happening in another world. In most cases, each separate "television show" occurs in a separate world, which explains the incredible discontinuity between television shows. ...
• The one thing that is constant throughout the television worlds: they do not see themselves on TV. ... ) The reason this happens is that the source of the branches of the television worlds is the television itself (even in places where it would seem there are no televisions, there are still television waves which transmit the dimensional fabric in which the worlds exist). As such, with the television being the link between worlds, the world in which the television "show" exists does not transmit to itself (Imagine that the television world is a picture in a gallery of pictures; from within the picture, one can see all the other pictures, but cannot see itself).
• This intertwining link between this world and the worlds of television means that events that occur on television are reflections of events in the "real" world, and vice versa. ...
• "reality" is in the eye of the beholder.
• As time passes, and the reflections continue, the proportion of similarities between the television worlds and ours will increase, so in that sense, television is becoming a reality, but will not be a reality until the proportion of similarities to differences reaches infinity, which is at time=infinity, i. ...
• In this light, it is possible, and not unlikely, that in at least some of those television worlds, we are on television, as our world would appear as a television world to them. Therefore, be careful what you do, for you never know who is watching you on their television sets (the universe's own Candid Camera). In that case, "reality", as we know it, is in fact television.

•                  REALITY TELEVISION AS RELATED TO PRODUCTION AND CONSUMPTION  .
•     Whether or not one is an avid fan of MTV’s “The Real World” or a compulsive viewer of NBC’s “Fear Factor”, there is no denying the impact in which Reality Television has had on us as a television watching society. This theme of “Reality” based programming has rapidly increased over the past ten years and is still very much apart of the daily line-ups we as viewers have to chose from. ... Yet why is it that we as a culture are so engulfed in this form of television? What is it about these shows that keep the viewers consuming and the producers producing? Perhaps it is the fascination of watching other individuals such as our selves, interact in situations associated with “real life”, or possibly it is a change from familiar themes such as the sitcom or news based programs. Whatever the reason, reality television has brought about new questions to the way in which television allows us to view and examine ourselves. The production and consumption of reality-based programs has pushed television in general, into a new era of entertainment filled with spectacle, gruesome tasks, competition and mayhem. In analyzing Reality television as related to production and consumption, it is important to note the enormous growth and impact television as a whole has had on society, also to ask the question what exactly is reality television and how does it affect us? Since its initial break thru in the 1950’s, television has grown to be the most prevalent and dominant medium of our time, some 98% of American households own at least one television, up from 9% in the 1950’s, while 56% of American children have a television in there bedroom. ... ) One would not even have to look passed the sheer amount of television stations to observe the substantial growth of television as a whole. ... ” (Comstock, Scharrer)  Television provides us, the viewers with an opportunity not only directed towards the possibility of being entertained, but with a chance to evaluate ourselves as well as those around us. “Television offers us a variety of distant perspectives from which to judge our local experiences. Television close ups place us at an intimate distance from a wide range of “electronic friends”- actors, musicians, talk show hosts, news casters, national politicians, foreign leaders-and these relationships compete and interact with the influences of local relationships with family members, real-life friends, coworkers, teachers and religious and political leaders. ”(Meyrowitz) What is Reality Television? “Reality TV is the name given to the new genre of programs that feature “real” people in “real” circumstances.

• The Unreal World of Reality Television .
• That's reality TV. According to longtime television industry guru Dina Browne, it won't stop at mere mediocrity, but hopefully will stop before snuff movies become prime-time fodder. Underlying the reality TV debate, however, is the real issue: bottoms and bottom lines versus quality programming.
