All Reality TV, All The Time

from the scary dept

For those of you who just can't get enough of reality TV programming, it seems that some former contestants on reality TV programs are teaming up to put together a cable TV channel that will be all reality TV programming, all the time, 24-hours a day. The channel will show reruns of old US reality TV programs, combined with imports from abroad. However, there are signs that viewers are losing interest in reality TV. The first "reality movie" seems to have bombed, and plenty of reality TV shows aren't getting very far.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    It's not that people have lost interest, it's that there are too many of them. Maybe the reality channel will be a good thing. This way, the regular stations can go back to broacasting fluff, and I can not see reality tv if I want to.
