Reality TV
In the year that we are living in,
reality television shows are the new and most dramatically shows aired on television.
A reality show that I have heard of is “Keeping Up with The Kardashians”. I have watched one or two episodes of it
because my sister watches it all the time. I myself do not really like reality
shows because the people or “actors” that are in the show act fake. I do not
think that in reality families have so many problems in a day, or they can do
so many activities in a day, or create so much drama because of such a little
thing. If reality shows actually showed how people are without the cameras and
the camera crew following them, and a script, reality shows would be so boring
that nobody would watch them.
Since there is so much drama in
those shows, people use that as the reason to watch them. I do not like
anything about reality shows because there is no reality in them. If I compare
my life to theirs, we have similar problems, but the difference is that I do
not have a camera crew following me, and that I do not make a big deal about
everything. I believe that these shows are harming our community because they
give off a negative message to the younger population, and some reality shows
have a lot of sexual content which they do not really show, but they imply it
so people know what they mean. The people in the reality shoes are often good
looking and well dressed and they also have a lot of money. So the people that
watch those shows thing that their lives are supposed to be like the people
from the reality shows.
Many people go to great extents to
be like the people from their favorite reality shows, and also they do many
life threatening procedures such as plastic surgery, stealing, and selling
their body for money. For me, it is something I avoid because of the types of
people that are on those shows. In the show, everyone has a problem most of the
time, and when they do get along, something happens so that everyone is mad at
each other again for no apparent reason.
Also, it these shows, the people
that are in there are mostly celebrities, and they go on very expensive trips around
the world whenever they want and they do not care how much money they spend on
anything, for example in reality people usually spend from five to ten dollars
on a shirt, in reality shows, people spend hundreds on a shirt, and then they
fight over it, or but two of the same things just to please the people who are
creating the conflict at that moment.
In conclusion, I myself do not like
reality television shows because the people on those shows are fake. The people
in those shows look as if they are never happy. The people are mostly good
looking and rich and they are mostly celebrities, and they have problems that
go out of hand. Sometimes they even hire detectives to find out stuff about
their own families. I also do not like reality shows because they are hurting
our community by showing the younger population how money anf fame are supposed
to be the number one priority in their lives.
