--- Quote from: beaver1231 on January 16, 2010, 11:57:54 AM ---"Scripted Reality"? Examples, please. --- End quote --- I dunno if it's a term used in other countries as well, but I know it's been in use here in Germany for a while now (they use English terms for eveything new to make it sound 'modern'). It's basically the concept behind most of those 'reality' shows. Because filming people in their actual daily life will often be boring for the viewers, the producers write scripts for certain events (quarrels, reconcilations, all that drama stuff) that might be possible in reality. Then they let the filmed people play by this script. That's why it's called 'scripted reality'. |

oh well, then does anyone watch So You Think You Can Dance? I don't think you can script that. |

I don't know how prominent 'reality shows' are in other countries, maybe they're a European phenomenom? |

Great, so erm, still doesn't answer tho, does anyone watch SYTYCD? (so you thi )ry I personally find it much more significant than watching American Idol, which is frankly quite mundane past the auditions, and unless narrowed down to last 10 or so. |
