Reality TV sucks

I personally dislike most reality TV shows. Most show now a days seem to be the same, like who can sing or dance better, or who can do the most idiotic thing. I'm all about having fun but making shows out of them come on. I hate that most of these people become famous because they drink a lot and sleep around a lot. But there are few shows nowadays that might be considers reality; that transcends more then just people singing and dancing and plane ole acting stupid. Most of those shows tend to make the people more famous and popular, but in turn give nothing back besides entertainment. Most “reality” shows on “The History Channel” and “Discovery” etc seems to bring lots more to the table, they really teach people.


The “reality” shows that I watch tend to be from a group of channels stated above I really think that its a waste of time to watch shows like “ Dancing with the stars” and “American idol” people can watch and do more productive things. I do think that reality shows are ruining our society and many way. Go back 12 to 15 years and the only major reality shows were “Real World” and “Road rules” I remember watching then and wasting my time now there are so many reality shows to choose from. It's becoming sort of a drug that people become addicted to it and can't stop watching it. I believe that reality shows can be factored in lots of mental and physiological problems. But I believe that another problems can arise from reality shows; such as young girls wanting to be just like a protagonist and mimic just about every thing. Such as sexual behaviors and drug and alcohol abuse because they see them doing it on TV so it okay to do it in real life. But it not only the child fault it's the parents one as well.

While I seem to be overly conservative and want to end these show, but I also strongly believe in the 1st Amendment and all the rights its grants us. Instead of making show about how the rich and famous live how about how you average American live and depict family from different parts of the U.S. But nobody wants to see poor people struggling through get by week by week. We all know that wont sell. Instead force people into a reality that is all but unreachable to most. Reality shows make their viewers go into a reality and wish and dream about how it would be if he was part of the show instead with that time wasted he could have done something more productive and not waste his time. I strongly believe that some people do become addicted and need medical care. Their even been stalkers that arise from the darkness because they become overly infatuated with a reality star. Since reality TV is what people want to see then there will always be large supply of shows to support their addiction.
