"Being on a reality show seems a lot like roleplaying as oneself, as a job, while the producers shape the campaign toward the interests of a viewing audience they know very well."
See, I'd be fascinated to see more reality TV that was geared towards this sort of exaggerated performance -- somewhere between pro-wrestling personas and a game show.
But so much of reality TV leaves me cold because I'm completely uninterested in romance/sex content (particularly when they're mined for conflict and disaster).
