J'accuse reality TV show

There used to be a great Channel 4 show called J'accuse where famous TV shows etc were put on trial.
So why not do it for BCG?

J'accuse reality TV shows of lowering the bar for TV shows

Prosecution

TV should entertain, educate, amuse make us more than we are. Reality TV doesn't it just reflects a flawed vision of who we are. WW1 by blokes crying in a trench, vacuos racists on BB, endless vile teens on BBC Three.
Reality TV takes us back centuries to shit smeared peasants shouting at pigs

Defence

All entertainment is about people and life. Andthat's what reality TV gives us, whats so great about artifice? Jade, Raef, Sophocles who could write such engaging characters? And by the treatment of gay and transexuals in these shows can we see how far we have come as a society? That and every one loves Come Dine With Me?

what do you think?

It's too late for me to be as intelligent

But I J'accuse Nature programmes.

Prosecution:
They stop people wanting to see animals in their natural habitat, and fill up over 60 percent of all the documentary channels stopping us thinking about many of the things that really matter.

Defence:
They are fantastic & David Attenborough is a darling.

Further in fefence they ameliorate the endless bloody shows on Hitler and ones on big guns that crowd most documentary channels
