As we all know the airwaves are packed with Reality TV right now and about to get three more hours of reality with the start of Big Brother. The writers strike, which seems to at least be temporarily over, has caused this sudden boom of reality tv and could be beneficial or push reality into oblivion even further. With so much reality tv on right now people may get tired of it if they haven’t already. I LOVE reality tv and have at least 4 shows that I’m watching and that’s well over the norm. The problem with so much being on right now is people have to pick and choose what they watch since some shows air at the same time. The ratings don’t seem to be benefiting from the overload either and who knows what that will do. Both American Idol and Survivor are taking slight hits in their ratings. It could be people didn’t realize they were on or maybe they just grown tired of the reality tv that was on before them. Who knows what the boom will do to the genre. Hopefully it helps and hopefully reality tv will never die!
