“Reality TV” is an oxymoron.
The only reality TV is a live camera being broadcast live, real time... be it known, however - they’re working on technology to make even that capable of being altered, real time so what’s real, ain’t.
“Reality TV” is an oxymoron.
The result of over usage of one word to describe a variety of television productions/shows; from documentaries to sitcoms.
The term ‘reality’ began with staged shows such as Jerry Springer et.al., which featured ‘real people’ not celebrities. Thereafter, any show depicting people in their normal (or abnormal) daily activities used that term. Lazy, but inevitable.
If I hear the term ‘reality show’ I immediately think of Anna Nicole Smith & Ozzy Osborne. I never watched either one!!!!!!!
