That is a point but these shows do have a purpose and that is to let us into the psychology of how people communicate in confined spaces for a length of time. And because I like to learn about how people work together etc, I found it quite intriguing to learn about other people. It is also amusing, gives us something to gossip about and inspires us in a way... a way that makes us think how lucky we are to have freedom (I'd love to go into BB but think of the difficulties everyone went through)... I think reality Tv affects us because it makes us want to try things new, like learn how people work therefore learn about peoples' senstitivy and cofidence issues. And we can see from reality TV shows how people should and shouldn't be treated. I think these shows are just generally addictive and hilarious usually as well!
