Reality TV
Ah yes, we all love reality TV, don't we? A somewhat recent phenomenon, it has evolved immensely over the past couple of years. As I have noticed thought, each show comes from the same general formula. Reality shows prey on our emotions, take for example, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. At first this show started our largely a decorating show for families in need, now the whole show revolves around the people, not the house. America likes stuff that will touch their hearts, or inspire them. Its so heart warming for viewers to watch the show, its one of those feel good shows, you just can't stop watching. Now another emotion commonly expoilted by the media, is fear. Take fear factor for example, watching people face their fears is somehow interesting to us humans
