Nowadays, television networks are becoming more realistic in creating television shows for the general viewing public. It seems that people now are entertained by seeing other ordinary people doing extraordinary stuff on air!

For the past few years, reality shows has been a hit among viewers around the world. Reality shows are these one hour long programs wherein one can watch several contestants in an unscripted situation battling for something, or showing actual events featuring ordinary people as the cast.

TV reality shows are of various types. Talk shows, dating shows, game shows or elimination shows, makeovers, hidden camera shows, hoaxes, documentary programs & renovations are different varieties of reality programs started by TV networks.

General public remains tireless watching these reality shows. The people participating in the reality shows with new faces are unfamiliar to the camera. Contestants aren’t too comfortable with the camera on them.

But anxiety can be seen in the contestants when they struggle for the prize. Viewers get to see the nervousness amongst the participants. For example, the contestants will travel around the world to find and beat clues to get the monetary prize in The Amazing Race.

When the participants hurry through the airports, do not understand local language, getting flights in schedule and the competition in the participants increases the anxiety which can be easily seen on television by the public.

The TV actors do not show anxiety commonly on television. This scenario showing anxiety makes the episodes more real and connects the public to factual world.

For a more adventurous show, we watch the popular reality show Fear Factor. Here we see a group of contestants that compete each other by doing something that can be very scary for some, but fairly easy for others.

Participants in the Fear Factor struggle with their own fear and anxiety in a way one can’t just imagine. They eat living insects, jump from a height of three hundred feet in the air and get locked with snakes in the coffin.

It’s the fear and anxiety of contestants that can hype up the viewers. This reality is the enjoyment for public and people are coming closer to know what’s real and what’s not on the television. Entertainment is evolving to get a different outlook leaving behind the old fictions.
