What is the main idea of this paragraph? Reality shows are the new trend in the television arena. Originally, reality shows pres
ented real-life events. But over the years, the picture has changed a bit. Not all reality shows today present real-life events. Many of these "reality" shows are scripted. They take place on studio sets and rented locations. Participants often must act and speak according to a script. Many viewers believe these scripted events are actually unscripted. Reality show producers stage dramatic events to gain higher ratings.
