Class discussion prompted me to mention another reality show that I feel is extremely fascinating and was not mentioned in class and that is The Real Housewives of New Jersey, Orange County and D.C.
This show focuses on the housewives of wealthy men and their lifestyle. I find it fascinating that the women act differently depending on where they live. In this reality series the wives are friends but at the same time argue and fight with each other. As mentioned in class, there are some things that can be thought of as real but in the end we all know that most of the drama and personalities are fake and influenced by the producers of the show for entertainment purposes. Therefore, the majority of the drama is exaggerated.
So have any of you watched this show? I would love to know what you all think of the show? Also, you can find many clips of the show on youtube if you haven't watched the show before.

I think that although it is probably the case that a lot of the drama is exaggerated, the lives depicted kind of represent what we all strive for in todays society. We watch these shows, we make them popular. I just think its interesting to reflect on. Perhaps it represents the fact that today the most important thing is money, and that many people think that money is power and happiness.
