Reality TV

Is it really reality? Someone posted on a blog: "just a month ago I was at a nightclub in Hollywood when Gene Simmons, of KISS, showed up to film for his reality series - and wrestled gogo girls in a tub of lube". If he wasn\'t filming for a reality TV series would he really be wrestling girls? I doubt it (actually, maybe he would, but you know what I\'m getting at). How about Big Brother? How can that be reality when they\'re locked in a room without normal day to day items like the internet, TV, random people calling your mobile. And they\'re all lunatics, normally an office or room is full of mostly sane people (and often boring) people. I guess live TV isn\'t quite as catchy, and doesn\'t really apply as BB is meant to be timeshifted by about 30 seconds on the live feed, and the daily shows are a summary. Trash TV might be a more suitable title.
