Reality television has not gone too far because it is a commentary on our contempory society. ... If reality television has gone too far, why are reality shows still broadcasted every night of the week? ... As long as the law allows it, television networks will keep broadcasting reality television. In this case, it can’t possibly have gone too far. I’m going to take ‘Big Brother Uncut’ as an example, as it has had a lot of criticism over the past few weeks because of its content. ... A lot of people have said this is ‘reality television gone too far’, but I remind you of the law again. ...
Reality Television has not gone too far because it is a commentary on our contempory society. ... There is no pressure in what to watch at all, but thousands of people still tune into reality TV on a nightly basis. The sole reason that television networks continue to broadcast reality TV is because they continue to get ratings. Reality TV draws crowds; it creates hype – an excitement in our environment. ... What does that tell us about reality television? ... How on earth can it possibly have gone too far? If it has gone too far, viewers would have tuned out by now, forcing the television networks to take it off the air for lack of ratings. But reality television still airs on our screens every night. ... A lot of people ask what the point of reality television is, if we are living a real life in a real world. There is no reality television show that looks at someone sleeping, someone going to school or someone eating. This is our typical ‘real life’, all reality shows are not based solely on these things.
