The Reality Show Jari Hinshelwood

Ever wondered just why reality television is so fascinating? Well, first of all, there's the unbelievable reality of it. 'My goodness, these are real bonafide morons, and they actually signed up for this.' This sad state of affairs is summed up nicely in an old English saying. 'Some mothers do have 'em.' Alas, they do. But what you might not know is that reality television, the kind where young men and women give us the backside of humanity in full glory, is actually part of a sinister plan. A plan not of this world. Imagine if you lived on a planet a few light years away and stumbled across foreign television signals. A show depicting a group of beings revealing pretty much everything they're made of. What would you make of that race? In the THE REALITY SHOW we follow, in considerable detail, a groundbreaking reality show. But we also follow two separate alien races. One intimately connected to the show. The other drawing inspiration from it. Each has a very different view of the concept and purpose of our kind of reality television. And both will prove to be completely lethal. This book offers a vital and timely satire on modern television and the attitudes of its subjects and the attitudes of us, the viewers, who keep making the phenomenon possible. Find out what the reality really is in THE REALITY SHOW.
