Reality TV Shows is a television
genre that has an unscripted play and unedited clips throughout the show. Although I was not into reality show, I have a
positive stance on it.
Reality TV Shows helps viewers to
see some of obstacles and conflicts that other people face in life. If the show is well planned and acted out, it
can encourage viewers to overcome obstacles with determination, hard work, and
confidence. Reality TV Shows such as
America Got Talent shows glimpse of the participant’s life (ordinary people)
and their life obstacles. I remember one
episode when there was a sightless singer who had perfect scores from all three
judges. I think that participant is the
inspiration for many television viewers across America to do something that
they never thought they’re courageous enough to do.
Beside inspiration and
encouragement, Reality TV Shows also entertain viewers with true-life event and
story. We live in a culture that is
covered by mass medias and information; one of the reasons why Reality TV Shows
is so popular is because it provides people (viewers) something that they can
relate to. One of most fascinating
aspects about Reality TV Shows is to see how actors in the TV can speak and
behave in a way that is so similar to our-selves, which lead back to my point
of finding inspiration.
Although I have a positive stance on
Reality TV Shows, I still do believe, that there are negative aspects among
them. Reality TV Shows does not
“require” talented actors for the show to be famous nor a well write and plan
script, which these two characteristics have been the foundation for successful
TV shows for the past. Actors in Reality
TV Shows sometime purposely make fun of themselves for the entertainment of
others. Another negative aspect is that
the cost to produce each episode and the show is significantly lower than other
type television genre, which brings to my question: is the show truly a reality
show, or is it just the producer wants more money.
Every television genre has its own
pros and cons, but I believe the pros of Reality TV Shows outweighed its
cons. The producer maybe in it for the
wealth and status, but if the show can bring life changing inspiration to viewers
than I think this television genre is worth to keep growing.
