Good point....reality shows are shows that just film people in their settings & their lives & what's going on.There's no money involved or prizes to win.Shows like Survivor & The Mole & such are just different types of game shows that last an hour.Most of these shows suck hard ass & I see little redeeming value in watching them.The Mole(the first two anyway) was enjoyable to watch.The games were cool....it was challenging to figure out who the Mole was & the player interaction was funny to watch.Now shows like Married By America are the stupidest thing I have ever seen & think whoever came up with that crap should be tied to a chair & zapped repeatedly with a cattle prod while watching Steel Magnolias over & over again.
