One of the biggest trends in television in recent years has been the rise of “Reality TV”. These shows,
in which ordinary people are placed in unusual situations and then filmed without a script, have
become some of the highest rating shows on television. Early programs of this genre, including Big
Brother (from the Netherlands) and Survivor (from the United States), have led to dozens of copycat
programs in many different countries. A common element to many of these programs is that a number
of contestants are placed in a closed environment in which they are filmed 24 hours a day, and every
week contestants are thrown off the show. What is it about these shows that makes them so popular?
Perhaps it is because viewers enjoy watching ordinary people with real emotions being placed in

looking secretly into other people’s lives.
