1.Why are we so into watching reality shows

Although we usually deny watching reality shows, i think we all watch these programs, as ratings show, which we find foolish. I think it's a bit weird to watch people wining big prizes without doing anything or looking for a date or for the person they would spend the rest of their life on a tv programme; but we all do this even if we watch to have an idea to talk about these. This may be because most of the people want to see how the others live and at the end of the day they are satisfied to see that everyone has problems in private. Some people are so addicted to these shows such as Big Brother that they consider the competitors as their friends or see them as members of their family. I think these reality shows are a big threat on people's psychology because they take them too serious and they don't just watch for fun. As a result, people are becoming more addicted and they can't stand a life without these shows. I can't really imagine how it will be in several years..
