They do it because it's the cheapest way to make television, you could make 20 reality shows for the price of one regular tv show. They don't need to hire any actors, scriptwriters, cameramen etc. Just find a fuckwit like Tommy Lee and follow him round for a few days coming up with ridiculous contrived situations and film them on a video camera. Get some second rate editor to piece it all together and bingo, tv show. The great thing about it is there are millions of retarded people out there who will watch this shit. My favourite reality show is Jack Osbourne: Fat, Four-Eyed, Pig Faced, Trust Fund Baby.
