Reality TV started out years ago as radio game shows.
That is interesting. Do you think they are largely scripted?
By definition it's supposed to be unscripted using real people instead of actors.
I like to think they are unscripted when I am watching but I bet some are
People say the first reality TV show was the Dating Game in 1973.
Oh yeah the Dating Game was off the chain. Those contestants seemed authentic!
It was created by Chuck Barris who was called the "King of Schlock."
Chuck Barris would be probably be cancelled in today's culture lol.
The most popular reality TV shows are talent competitions like America's Got Talent and The Voice.
I remember when American Idol started it was so fresh and new. People voting was cool.
