Are You Interested In Reality TV?

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

It seems that TV watching is like politics, everyone has their own point of view and everyone likes something different. Well if you’re the type of person that likes reality TV then you probably watch shows just like Big Brother and Survivor and if this is the case you are probably a huge addict just like me! As of late, I have been really anxious for Survivor to come back but I really haven’t seen any commercials for when its going to come back or anything about the show so I decided to have a look and see what I could find!

What I came up with were some really interesting websites that gave some really nice information on not only when these shows will be coming back but also some nice previews as well. If you are the type of person that likes to be in the “loop” then these sites are definitely for you. Even if you haven’t ever watched a show like Survivor you could get a pretty good idea of what this show entails just from reading the descriptions on these websites and watching a few videos. Here is a excerpt from one website about Survivor:

“Survivor is a popular reality TV game show format broadcasted in many countries throughout the world. In the show, contestants are isolated in the wilderness and vie for cold hard cash and other prizes such as trips and cars. The show exercises a progressive elimination scheme, allowing the contestants to vote off a tribe member, until only one final contestant remains and wins the title of “Sole Survivor”. The format for Survivor was created in 1992 by Charlie Parsons, and the first production of it was the Swedish show Expedition: Robinson in 1997.”

The videos on these websites are of high quality so its not like your going to be watching some third level hack video. Plus, like on a lot of other unnamed websites (ABC/NBC/CBS) you don’t have to sit through grueling advertisements which can often become quite annoying! Personally, I really like websites like this because as aforementioned it does help keep me in the loop but it also gets me interested in shows I may not have heard of before! I am all about watching my regular shows but if I see something that interests me, I’m willing to give it a whirl! Some other reality TV shows that you should check out are: American Idol, Real World, The Apprentice, and the ever popular Amazing Race!

The Apprentice

Saturday, January 10th, 2009

The awfully accepted reality series The Apprentice is an inimitable mark of billionaire real-estate magnate Donald Trump where eighteen Americans battle to get victory in a string of painstaking business odd jobs. Many of these are inducted in Fortune 500 companies and assigned street smart jobs where they need to conquer with their intelligence and intellect in case if they need to exist in the fray for next tussle.

In each episode, the trailing team is sent to the boardroom to face Donald Trump and his decision makers Carolyn Kepcher and George Ross evaluate the job applicants on their job execution. Later in the board room, Trump’s children Donald Trump Jr. and Ivanka Trump judge their performance to decide that who will thrive? Who will fall short? And who will be The Apprentice? This is all about the widely appraised Reality Drama. This reality show was being popular among the witty audience due to its speedy tempo and contradictory characteristics of the contestants who made it an eminent show worth watching.

Donald Trump is the lead character of the series who is one of Manhattan’s most admired real-estate kings, who puts her wit in hosting reality television’s most competitive and loving series. In a interesting turn when Donald Trump expels an Apprentice contestant, he or she rides the elevator down to failure zone and rest contenders allow to traverse towards success.

Omarosa Manigault is the most successful contestants so far for this TV show who set his path into show business after winning the fight.
