  5. I have no doubt that reality shows are far from actual reality. Although I totally understand many of them are scripted or staged, I love them all anyway!

  6. I enjoy watching House Hunters and while I am aware that reality TV is often far from reality, I still find myself choosing which house I think the couple should buy.

  7. I’m a Bachelor/Bachelorette junkie. I love to watch it just because it’s terrible and takes me away from reality.

  8. Sometimes these reality shows just reach too far to make it a show. But, it is for the entertainment of the people.

  9. There always seems to be more going on behind the scenes. The Bachelor has always been a guilty pleasure for me.

  11. I enjoy watching them. I don’t have to think to hard when I watch them, a nice little escape.

  12. Wow I didn’t know a lot of this! I love House Hunters and would of never guessed that some of them already have purchased a home. I did find out about Storage Wars a few months back – I was shocked! Great post! Still love reality tv, though! ; )

  13. I watch The Bachelor every week it is on and love it. I had no idea how long it took to set up these dates they have each week!

  14. I was suspicious about many of these reality tv shows before.
    I am not surprised to hear about this.
    Many of these shows have been around for a long time though, and probably will always have a tv niche.

  15. I don’t watch a lot of reality TV, but I do really enjoy House Hunters and a lot of the foodie shows. I couldn’t get into Cupcake Ward, but I love shows like Chopped and other ones similar to it. I also LOVE Fixer Upper!

  16. Haha! This is so funny because they’re so true. Great show line up too!

  17. I watch a lot of reality shows and had a feeling they were scripted on some level. It was interesting to see they sometimes plant item on Storage Wars.

  18. The first time I watched reality tv shows, I was like “This is good”. Later on, I am not interested because it seems to be so scripted.

  19. I use to love watching Cupcake Wars. I was always amazed by how they could come up with cupcake recipes with such unusual ingredients so quickly. I had always wondered if they knew ahead of time.

  20. I watch a few of these shows. These are great facts about the shows i did not know.

  21. I guess it’s not so real after all! It’s still a show you you’re going to expect a lot of these things! It’s kind of disappointing though, because you are thinking it would at least be different… somehow!

  22. As someone who has appeared on a reality show, I can tell you that while things may not entirely be scripted they are certainly set up! It was both entertaining and totally weird, but I think people assume that we really mean what we say … when it’s been edited that way. For example, I might have said “no, I hate that” about something as simple as my dinner… but it would be turned into “no, I hate that person” or something like that! Words are definitely twisted!
