do you think reality tv is fake? i believe that most of it is fake. These days it seems like people will do anyhing for money. And alot of the new reality shows are the most dumbest stuff i ever seen.
Alot of the stuff i see is hard to believe that they could even do the show unless it had been staged and set up. and stuff like jerry springer and maury.
Are should those be considered reality tv or talk shows? jerry springer is one of the main shows i believe is fake. Alot of the stuff that is on tv looks fake. Like the show 13 fears. They really expect me to believe that they took these people in the woods to scare them and they had no clue what was going on? I just dont believe that it isnt staged.
Or alot of the shows when they try to find a match or a partner for someone. Those could be fake too. Feel free to leave a comment and give your opinion

Noah 92 I believe its fake. TV depends on timing and knowing and planning whats going to happen. They have to plan for commericial time and often go through rehersal even for reality shows.
Given all that you have to believe it is fake and they are following a script.

Yes, "reality" shows have very little reality in them. While all the dialogue may not be scripted, they are given a scenario and suggestions as to how to proceed. (I used to work in the movie biz and actually auditioned for a counselling-type show, where my "husband" and I couldn't agree about starting a family... I'd never met the fellow before.)
