Well, that no longer exists. You let a TV camera and producer following you around all day and you don't have reality. Whether it is the Duck Dynasty or Honey Boo Boo or College Football, cameras and money change what is real.
You offer a University enough money to televise their games and before you know it the pace and timing of the game is controlled. The team has momentum and they are moving down the field, they need a short timeout to confer. The network says, "Lets stretch to three minutes".
On Duck Dynasty the producer suggests putting up a Christmas tree in the warehouse. Wouldn't it be funny if you try the set the star on top of the tree and knock the tree over. Reality comes a plot from "I Love Lucy".
I don't even have a comment about Honey Boo Boo! I'll just say no one in the southern U.S. can gripe about Big City people calling them backward, we love it. I guess?
It's no different if you think the east coast was accurately represented by "Jersey Shore". Maybe that's why the Republicans would not support the Sandy victims?
WE ARE STRANGE PEOPLE.
That's why I go to movies. I like my "reality" with better writers, directors and actors. They aren't as ugly either.
