If more people would have rejected reality tv slop, we wouldn't have had The Apprentice. Tiger King is in the same category of weird, voyeuristic shit.

Wasn’t the apprentice was a game show? I believe tiger king was a documentary. Both slop sure but I don’t know that either count as reality TV do they?

If a game show leans heavy on the scripted drama, I classify it as reality tv. People aren't interested in the competition. They're interested in the conflict.
