real world boston was the only reality tv show i watched more or less all the way through. it was fun while it lasted but once it was over, reality tv felt "done" and i didn't really want to watch much more of it. i still don't understand the lasting appeal tbh.

It's cheap to produce, yet gets enough eyeballs to validate its existence.

No more paying actors, script writers (at least, not at the same level), etc.
