Description

This book is a study of the Reality TV format which, in less than a decade, has transformed network programming schedules, branded satellite and digital stations, become a favourite target for anti-television campaigners, and turned viewers into savvy readers of (and participants in) the mechanics of television production. The impact of this form of unscripted programming, for which no term existed until the early 1990s, is undeniable. Yet, despite reality television's comparatively short tenure on our screens, its history is already in the process of being distorted, fictionalised or forgotten by viewers, commentators and even television scholars.
