Reality TV

Hi,

Would someone please tell me a bit about "Reality TV"?
I've gained some explanations from some dictionaries but still can't figure it out.Is it a kind of documentary?

Thank you in advance,

Iman

Greetings Imantaghavi Reality TV is essentially unscripted programming that doesn't employ actors and focuses on footage of real events or situations. Reality shows also often use a host to run the show or a narrator to tell the story or set the stage of events that are about to unfold. Unlike scripted shows like sitcoms, dramas and newscasts, reality TV does not rely on writers and actors, and much of the show is run by producers and a team of editors.
