Reality television (reality TV) is a genre of television programming that documents supposedly unscripted real-life situations, and often features an otherwise unknown cast of individuals who are typically not professional actors, although in some shows celebrities may participate.
Reality TV differs from documentary television in that the focus tends to be on drama, personal conflict, and entertainment rather than educating viewers.
