This movie was a lot better than I thought it would be. I think this one came out after the Truman Show, because I remember thinking "oh geez not another 'reality' movie." However, I must say this one came at the 'reality tv' approach from a different angle. While the Truman Show played on how (and exaggerated) the way reality tv sets are so controlled that they may as well be scripted; and how they really screw with the reality star's life; EDtv focused more on the self-destruction of these people who put themselves in these situations thinking its going to catapult them into long-lasting fame. I really liked this movie, because when it came out reality tv was so much more fascinating than it is now (because now every channel has some type of reality show).
