Popcorn Culture - Supercut: Reality TV

Chuck a bunch of people together in a confined space, whether a remote island, a hyper-surveilled house, or a mansion vying for love. Add some abrasive personalities, a large incentive, and dramatic twists and turns, and watch the sparks fly! That was a tried and true recipe for reality television for a long time. But in the decades since Big Brother, reality TV has also come to encompass the Kardashians, and all the shows that came after. In this Supercut, we talk about the appeal of reality TV in all its false glory.
