Think of all the money wasted on these reality tv shows. I remember the very first episode of survivor and how I totally loved it. Now, I can't understand why people have to watch a bunch of idiots getting in fights all the time.

It is because of the voyeuristic nature of the shows.

Also becuase we all like to check up on everyone else, making sure that we are not left behind or whatever, making sure that everyone else is the same as us and we are the same as everyone else.

That's why i think it works.

I think it works because we enjoy seeing people act like idiots. It is just human nature to be curious about how others react and behave.

I don't like to see people act like idiots. My embarassment for them is such that I feel embarassed myself. It's not fun seeing people make fools of themselves.
And I imagine that they remember it for the rest of their lives and feel the same pangs of humiliation every time they think of it.

But they knew BEFORE they auditioned to be on Reality TV that anything embarrsing they did would be shown (pver and over and over again ). So it's their own stupid fault.
