On the lighter Side:-Television

A long time ago I was an avid television viewer which had quality shows to watch and enjoy. But then the reality Television hit, which in the start was unique, a novelty and a curiosity. I starting to watch those shows but after a little while I just quit. I really don’t get the reality show part at all. If you may recall, there were great shows in the past which use to garner great ratings and good revenues. Great actors were made and they transitioned from TV to the movies quite easily and found fame but not anymore.

Now the reality shows are stuck in reality without any prospect of achieving real Hollywood fame. They may be on the cover of the magazines or tabloids but just for the curiosity part because of what they are “the reality stars” which means they are real people who are acting real and not following some tight script. There is no action or comedy in them, most of it is all drama and that is it. There are still some shows out there which are scripted and produced and gather great ratings and fun to watch, but for the rest of the reality TV, it is no fun to watch and a waste of time.
