Summarization:
When one hears the term "reality" applied to a television show, one might excepts that the events occurred naturally or, at the least, were not scripted, but this is not always the case. Many reality shows occur in unreal environments, like rented mansions occupied by film crews. These living environments do not reflect what most people understand to be "reality". Worse, there have been accusations that events not captured on film were later restaged by producer. Worse still, some involved in the production of "reality" television claim that the participants were urged to act out story lines premeditated by producers. With such accusations floating around, it's no wonder many people take reality TV to be about as real as the sitcom.

Excerpts:
The reality is to remind us that reality is real things and situations that always happens in this world; Reality is not expectations, reality must be real and not unrealistic or scripted; However, most people wanted to skip reality and make their own world or imagination.
