Reality TV Show
Reality television is a genre of television programming that documents purportedly unscripted real-life situations, often starring unfamiliar people rather than professional actors. Reality television emerged as a distinct genre in the early 1990s with shows such as '' The Real World'', then achieved prominence in the early 2000s with the success of the series ''Survivor'', '' Idols'', and ''Big Brother'', all of which became global franchises. Reality television shows tend to be interspersed with "confessionals", short interview segments in which cast members reflect on or provide context for the events being depicted on-screen; this is most commonly seen in American reality television. Competition-based reality shows typically feature gradual elimination of participants, either by a panel of judges, by the viewership of the show, or by the contestants themselves. Documentaries, television news, sports television, talk shows, and traditional game shows are generally not classi ...

Created by television producer Howard Schultz, the show depicts ordinary men and women undergoing "extreme makeovers" involving plastic surgery, exercise regimens, hairdressing, and wardrobing. Each episode ends with the participants' return to their families and friends, who have not been allowed to see the incremental changes during the participants' absence, and showing their reactions. On May 15, 2007, ''Extreme Makeover'' was officially cancelled. The show's final three episodes were broadcast on Mondays starting July 2, 2007. A spin-off series, '' Extreme Makeover: Home Edition'', debuted in 2003. The ''Home Edition'' ended up becoming far more successful than its parent series and would go on to outlast the latter's run. Another spin-off, '' Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition'', premiered in ABC's 2011 summer season. Eventually, the show excised its connection to ...
