Reality
TV is simply not real, by Greg
Tingle
Reality TV is simple not real.
Did
anyone seriously think a TV show referred to as "reality
TV" would be "real"?
When
has TV ever been real, well, other than the odd credible
documentary, but the fact remains that television
programming has directors, producer's, and a healthy
does of editing into the mix.
Reality
TV fans (or producers) may not want to believe what
you are about to read...
Fake
sweat was applied to one of the star's brows, in The
Block. Yes, that's right, fake sweat.
Couple's
on Temptation Island, were not real couples.
These
are just a few examples of this cheap to produce television,
television producers called reality TV.
Once
in a while reality TV becomes a little too real for
producers, and they don't like it.
Big
Brother fan's will remember "x" saying her
"x" was a criminal.
The
Jerry Springer Show, which is a talk show, with lots
of audience participation, will remember the case
where some guests appeared on his show (Ralf Panitz
and his ex-wife, Nancy Campbell-Panitz), and some
12 hours later that appearance sparked emotions, and
Nancy Campbell-Panitz was murdered (for real).
All
it took for Ralf Panitz to murder his ex-wife, Nancy
Campbell-Panitz, on the 24th July 2000, was years
of a bad relationship, and a heated discussion on
The Jerry Springer Show.
That
is not the first case, or the last case of Reality
TV running a mock, but it is the most infamous.
The
participants in 'There's Something About Miriam"
settled out of court with the producers, after being
mislead et al.
The
public has questioned the reality or this type of
television for decades.
Who
can remember Quiz Show? It was actually a game show,
but some may argue is was the predecessor to reality
television.
Then
again, reality is what we all choose to believe. For
the deep thinkers out there, if something exists,
it is in fact real, even if it has been spin doctored
all day.
Media
Man Australia has became aware of an Australian reality
TV show in the making that is as real as you are going
to get - H'it'! Ok, were are bias we admit, as we
have secured the role of judge, however, the talent
has real talent, and the producers, Brett Clements
and Peter Dodd's, are in touch with reality! (updated
as at April 2004 - no Australian TV networks have
picked up the show!)
Not
only that, they are youth and technology savvy, and
are casting real, fresh, talented, talent. Now there's
a novel concept! (Read
and listen to the interview with H'it'! creator, Brett
Clements)
*On
the 5th June 2004, Media Man Australia, secured the
domain name www.bransonshow.tv
(for use with Reality TV programme coverage, especially
Sir Richard Branson and Donald Trump)!
Folks,
reality TV may not be real, but with the public telling
producers they want more reality, and less contrived
storylines, things are about to get a whole lot more
real, in the reality TV space - the real example of
reality oxymoron's!
