Reality TV

Reality TV refers to a genre of television programming that documents unscripted situations and real-life events. Unlike traditional scripted shows that feature actors performing from a script, reality TV showcases individuals, often ordinary people or sometimes celebrities, engaging in various scenarios that may include competitions, social situations, or everyday life. The content is typically designed to entertain and can include a wide range of formats, such as talent competitions, dating shows, lifestyle documentaries, and survival contests. Reality TV often emphasizes conflict, drama, and emotional experiences, leading to intense audience engagement and discussion. This genre has become highly popular since the late 1990s, influencing television programming and culture significantly.
