Reality show

A reality show is a genre of television programming that documents unscripted real-life situations, often featuring ordinary people rather than professional actors. These shows aim to entertain viewers by showcasing authentic moments, interactions, and personal experiences. Reality shows can range from competitive formats, such as talent contests or survival challenges, to lifestyle programs that follow individuals or groups in various settings, like dating or home renovation. Unlike traditional scripted series, reality shows typically emphasize spontaneity and actual events, although some may incorporate structured elements or thematic narratives. The genre has gained significant popularity due to its perceived authenticity and the ability to connect with audiences on a personal level.
