I feel it to be a real con trick on the part of tv companies: they get us to accept unremarkable people making banal, unscripted comments as entertainment and they save themselves a fortune on actors, scriptwriters and rehearsals. If, as you and the article are saying, there`s a return to the making of quality drama progs, then I`ll get that clapping smiley out instead.
Yes, that is what I am saying. There are more quality produced shows around but that doesn't mean that reality shows aren't around because they are gold mines.

Also just because reality shows are around doesn't mean that they demise the quality of other programs.
