Reality shows serve up juicy drama out of human shortcomings.

So many reality shows are scripted and create this fake drama, and it's a bunch of bull. We wanted to do something real and something wholesome and something that's focused on positive family values.

There was a time when idealistic folksingers such as myself believed that Reality TV was a programming vogue that would peak and recede, leaving only its hardiest show-offs. Instead, it has metastasized like toxic mold, filling every nook and opening new crannies.

I think that reality TV is so bad. It is a tool by the media to not make people think.

Whenever the subject of doing reality television comes up, I immediately disregard it, because most people don't come off well, and it's embarrassing.

Reality TV is sleazy, it is manipulative. It is as momentary as anything in popular culture.

I don't know what reality television does, but it breaks up relationships.

'The Great British Bake Off' is family entertainment. There aren't many programmes where all ages can sit and watch from beginning to end. Everything else is violent, cruel, and noisy. We're educational without viewers realising it.

It is a reality show... this show is never without drama.

The reality shows are getting worse and worse. They're out of control and have been for some time.
