AUSTRALIA; DOCUMENTARIES; GAMES SHOWS; PROGRAMME GENRES; OSBOURNES, THE [TV] (US, 2002-); WOMEN AND TV; VIOLENCE ON TV; BIG BROTHER [TV] (AT, 2001-) Summary: Beginning by unearthing its historical roots in early reality shows like Candid Camera and wending its way through An American Family, Cops and The Real World to the most recent crop of reality programs, Reality TV is the first book to address the economic, visual, cultural, and audience dimensions of reality television. The essays provide a complex and comprehensive picture of how and why this genre emerged, what it means, how it differs from earlier television programming, and how it engages societies, industries, and individuals. Topics range from the construction of televisual “reality” to the hanging face of criminal violence on TV, to issues of surveillance, taste, and social control. By spanning reality television’s origins in the late 1940s to its current overwhelming popularity, Reality TV demonstrates both the tenacity of the format and its enduring ability to speak to our changing political and social desires and anxieties.
