The wind and snow blow so hard, you can't see your hand in front of your face. Your heating fuel is nearly gone, and so is your food. How do you survive?
Five fourteen–year–olds face this desperate situation on a deadly journey in Antarctica. It is 2083. They are contes–tants on a reality TV show, Antarctic Survivor, which is set up to re–create Robert F. Scott's 1912 doomed attempt to be the first to reach the South Pole.
But in 2083 reality TV is not just an act. Contestants literally relive – or die during – the simulations of events. Robert Scott and his team were experienced explorers and scientists, but their attempt to reach the Pole proved fatal. What chance does the Antarctic Survivor team have?
This action–packed, riveting adventure – full of fascinating direct quotes from Scott's journals and other accounts of the expedition – is both a heart–wrenching drama from the past and a disquieting glimpse into the future.

Praise for the First Edition:
”Offers the most insightful and significant scholarly analysis to date of the changes taking place in the economic ‘globalization’ of television production. A delight to read, laced with wit and humor.”
—Choice
Praise for the Second Edition:
“Provides both the record of a strange moment in history and a contribution to contemporary cultural politics. This second, revised edition brings the story right up to the present with a compelling blend of the ancient and the modern.”
—Toby Miller, editor of Television & New Media
The Apprentice. Project Runway. The Bachelor. My Life on the D-list. Extreme Makeover. American Idol. It is virtually impossible to turn on a television without coming across some sort of reality programming. Yet, while this genre has rapidly moved from the fringes of television culture to its lucrative core, critical attention has not kept pace.
Beginning by unearthing its historical roots in early reality shows like Candid Camera and wending its way through An American Family and The Real World to the most recent crop of reality programs, Reality TV, now updated with eight new essays, is one of the first books to address the economic, visual, cultural, audience, and new media dimensions of reality television and has become the standard in the field. The essays provide a complex and comprehensive picture of how and why this genre emerged, what it means, how it differs from earlier television programming, and how it engages societies, industries, and individuals. Topics range from the blending of fact and fiction, to the uses of viewer labor and “interactivity,” to issues of surveillance, gender performativity, hyper-commercialism, and generic parody.
By spanning reality television’s origins in the late 1940s to its current overwhelming popularity, Reality TV demonstrates both the tenacity of the format and its enduring ability to speak to our changing political and social desires and anxieties.

Drawing on cultural theory and interviews with fans, cast members, and producers, this book places the reality TV trend within a broader social context, tracing its relationship to the development of a digitally enhanced, surveillance-based interactive economy and to a savvy mistrust of mediated reality in general. Surveying several successful reality-TV formats, the book links the rehabilitation of Big Brother to the increasingly important economic role played by the work of being watched. The author enlists critical social theory to examine how the appeal of the real is deployed as a pervasive but false promise of democratization.Author: Mark Andrejevic

With more than 400 reality programs in the United States, it's no secret that "Reality TV" has infiltrated the homes of America. Even shows that are sticking to fiction tend to grab plotlines from today's headlines, further blurring the distinction between "reality" and fiction. Reality television has not just carved out a niche in our viewing schedules, but has gone on to take a relevant role in today's culture. From the very beginning, the Christian church has been in dialogue with the contemporary culture. The idea that the Gospel is always a contextual proclamation, is always relevant, and speaks to all believers no matter what is happening in society is a core belief for Christians.
Reality TV: Theology in the Video Era introduces readers to a new way of viewing this phenomenon and explores some of the most popular reality programs while seeking to understand video and media from a Christian perspective. The very nature of video and the way programs are made communicate a set of values and presuppositions that define our postmodern society. Specifically articulating the theology of these images, Stephen Faller offers readers a deeper understanding of their prime time viewing.
With discussion questions at the end of each chapter, Reality TV is perfect for any adult discussion group. It will explore a theology of reality TV and celebrate many of the themes that have made it so popular, while also challenging readers to confront their own lives--and their own realities.

Now that the Survivor television spectacle is over and done--evil Richard having snatched the coveted million bucks--legions of fans are undergoing Survivor withdrawal. What to do with our Wednesday nights now that we can't watch a bunch of unwashed folks eat rats, scratch bug bites, and scheme behind each other's backs? How about recreating a Survivor scenario in your living room? Load up on sand, rice, and rodents, invite a few friends over (you can vote them out by midnight), dream up a few immunity challenges, and play the Survivor soundtrack to fully capture the effect of the island contest. With the new-agey drums and chants of the main title theme, "Ancient Voices" (the extended version included here!), the pomp and circumstance of "Big Drama," the thrilling trill of "Survivor Yell," and the suspense of "Tally the Vote"--all culled from the show--you can recall the best days of the Tagi and Pagong. --Tod Nelson Atists: David Vanacore, Russ Landau

Q: Why has Queer Eye for the Straight Guy become one of the biggest cable/broadcast television phenoms of the admittedly young 21st century? A: Because life just isn't fabulous enough. But Queer Eye's producers and makeover mavens have bigger ambitions than sharing chic accoutrements for the hetero taste-challenged: they want to provide the soundtrack(s) to your life. This vibrant, club-savvy collection, characterized by the driving dance rhythms and upbeat outlook of Widelife/Simone Denny's sassy QE theme song "All Things (Just Keep Getting Better)," is but the first in what's planned as a series of show-inspired music anthologies. But while the collection's club chi-chi quotient (which includes an exclusive Chemical Bros. remix of Kylie Minogue's smoldering Euro smash "Slow," the US debut of Jamelia's synth-funk UK hit "Superstar" and "Everybody Wants You to Emerge, a giddy mixmaster smash-up of Fischerspooner and Billy Squier) is enough to recommend it, its expansive spirit also includes remixes from Sting and the newly reunited line-up of Duran Duran, as well as the standout dance track "An Area Big Enough To Do It In" by Omega Prophet and the coda of Elton John's Soulful 1979 hit, "Are You Ready For Love." --Jerry McCulleyAtists: Various Artists
