Page "Reality television" Paragraph 64

In hoax reality shows, a false premise is presented to some of the series participants.

In truth, the premise of the series is completely different.

The rest of the cast are actors who are in on the joke.

These shows often served to parody the conventions of the reality TV genre.

Operation Repo is another show that uses this.

They say it's reality but it really isn't because it is staged.
