This collection of essays focuses on two sub-genres of reality television: dating shows, like The Bachelor, Joe Millionaire, and the earlier Love Connection; and makeover reality shows, like The Swan and Are You Hot? The Search for America's Sexiest People. Each author explores a different aspect of one or both of these types of shows, focusing especially on the cultural interaction between the text--dating and makeover shows--and society.
Judith Lancioni is an associate professor in the Department of Radio, Television, and Film at Rowan University in Glassboro, New Jersey, where she teaches courses in media research and criticism, television scriptwriting, and images of women in film.
