I do like watching reality television. It is kind of funny though because I do end up watching some episodes of a reality show that I may not like, but once I flip through the channels and watch it for a minute or two I become sort of glued to it and end up watching an entire episode. It is so true that there is just something about reality shows that just intrigue us.
The reality show that I watched was Bethenny Ever After which is on Bravo. I do not know why but I really like that show. I find it to be quite entertaining to watch. Although if I really think about it, why am I or other fans of the reality show so entertained by watching other people just basically live their everyday lives?
The show is basically about Bethenny Frankel's life after getting married and recently having their baby, Bryn as well as how she juggles everything else in her life such as with her business.
I feel that a lot of the situations on the show are real, but of course we do not get to see everything and shows are always edited and definitely staged to keep things entertaining as we all know. But for the most part I think most of the situations are real. I think the main person Bethenny is real as she can be on the show because she is definitely not afraid to say what is on her mind and just basically be herself on tv. She also lets viewers into a more personal part of her life by airing some of the time of when she visits her therapist. I think a lot of people, mainly women, find this interesting to watch because it seems to be real and may help a lot of people that may have gone or are going through a similar situation.
It is also pretty funny to watch because as we all know producers of reality television are just waiting for embarrassing and insane events to be included in 'next weeks' episode.
Interestingly, I think this show is just one where most of the viewers/fans of the show just want to see the person do well in life and just be able to see how she deals with her past and present struggles hoping that everything works out.
I know how we talked about how there are some reality shows where the main entertainment of the show may come from watching other people suffer in some way, such as watching fights, but I do not think that this show goes for this at all. I find this to be interesting because I know a lot of other shows that most of us watch do find ways to stir up catfights and just fights in general to simply entertain us and keep their show going.
I think it is sad though how reality shows can end up destroying people's lives and relationships with all of the drama they can bring.
