Abstract

In recent years, reality shows are popular all over the world. Reality shows were originated in Europe in the end of the 20th century and spread around the world from the United States with different categories of reality shows in the 21st century. The United States and China are now two of the world’s largest producers of reality shows. According to the survey, people are motivated to view reality shows by their curiosity of the privacy of others and those who participate are motivated by their desire to succeed. Under different cultural backgrounds, the popularity of various reality shows in different countries is different which is an epitome of social culture. This paper will conduct a series of surveys and questionnaires on the most popular reality shows in China and the United States to reveal the cultural differences between two countries.
