I wonder how reality TV works. I get a majority of this shit is scripted, but you're still "acting" as yourself, and not a character. Do people really really reeeeally want to look like total butt****ing morons just to get on TV?

My wife watches the goddamned bachelor shitfest, and at any given time, at least early on, she can tell me what's going to happen. "So and so is going to freak out and get sent home, so and so will get emotional and get sent home, and they're going to play up drama between some **** and this other ****." It's astounding. |

Serialized storytelling, the defining characteristic of soap operas, has completely taken over dramatic TV. Pretty much everything is a soap opera or a reality TV show.
I know, I know... you're talking about those low budget nonsense daytime shows, but still. |

Hard to tell, but a lot of women are really into it. As far as I can tell (just a guess) it's the romantic escape aspect of it, but who the hell knows? Whenever my wife would tune into that crap, I would come into my office and jump on-line. Talk about garbage TV.

I’m guilty of that some too. Nothing near as terrible as the bachelor but I’ve turned stuff on that didn’t ask too much of me as a viewer. I think another aspect is how outrageously reeruned it is. Much like how otherwise reasonable individuals watch political shit. I’ll be honest. I’ll judge a politics watcher before a bachelor watcher. |
