Reality TV

Reality TV is a genre of television programming that documents purportedly unscripted real-life situations, often featuring an unnarrated storyline and focusing on individual people or groups. Unlike traditional scripted entertainment, reality TV aims to present a snapshot of actual experiences, albeit often in a dramatized or edited form. This genre includes a variety of formats, such as competition shows, talent contests, lifestyle programs, and documentary-style series, and often highlights personal interactions and conflicts. Reality TV is characterized by its use of non-professional actors or ordinary individuals, drawing viewers by showcasing relatable scenarios, humor, or sensational situations. The genre has gained immense popularity since its inception, often sparking discussions about authenticity, ethics, and the impact of media representation on society.
