Reality TV

I am going to be talking about something that is very interesting, shocking, and something I never heard about. For this blog post I’m going to be talking about a topic I picked to research.  The topic I picked is on the reality show, “The Bachelor and Bachelorette”.  I am going talk about how some of the contestants on the show committed suicide after they appeared on the show.  Hearing about this shocked me, I love watching “The Bachelor and The Bachelorette”, but I never knew any of the contestants committed suicide.  “The Bachelor and Bachelorette”, is a reality dating TV show on the network “ABC”.  On this show 1 woman dates 25 men (“The Bachelorette”) and 1 male dates 25 woman (The Bachelor”).  The point of this show is that the male and female hope to end up engaged at the end and find their “true love”.  This show have become very popular, most of the engaged  And then there is always that one that is everyone’s favorite, and the one you want to get picked at the end of the show. Analyzing this show, there are many people that come on the show that makes this show very diverse. This show is for men and woman, but mostly woman watch it. There are many different people from different backgrounds, different races, and different social classes that go on the show. Some people are unfortunate and don’t have an easy life. Most of all, everyone who becomes about of the show is just trying to find true love, as they say. Today, this topic is reality, people try to find love every day, people have drama in their lives, we all going through great times and hard times in our live. This show basically displays the life people live and what they go through in day by day. The research I done for this topic, is that I found articles that talk about the people who were on, “The Bachelor and Bachelorette”, have committed suicide or had suffered from depression after the show.  I researched why they committed, and why they where thinking about it.  I found out the names of the people, and what season of the show they were on.  I still need to a little more research but I’m excited to talk about this topic. I’m excited to share this with people who are fans of the show. This is all reality; even people that are not on the show go through all theses things in their life, and even something as serious as depression and suicide. 
couples and contestants end up becoming famous. There is a bunch of drama in this show of course, and they always have the one woman or man that everybody dislikes because of hoe they act on the show.
