In recent years there has been an increase in the production of reality TV. A lot of time and money has been invested in this field of television which has taken the audience by storm. From stand-up comedy to musical competitions, to expeditions, to races, to name just a few, they have graced the living rooms of many around the world. Despite their apparent popularity, many have fallen under the ax of financial constraints due to lack of popularity. There has however been one class that has stood up to the challenge, persevered the test of time and seems to have the potential to go all the way, the judge oriented TV shows, and they are many in number, all with different disciplines and all have a loyal following around the world. The concept and large following of these TV shows have also raised some eyebrows. This mainly concerns the role they play in society. Reality shows, as the name suggests, are supposed to be a reflection on how society is. To this end, they should be authoritative so as not to give a wrong impression to the society. With regards to those depicting courtroom dramas, there has been much evaluation of the impact on society. This is because legal and judicial processes play a very important role in society and should be treated with utmost care. Judges who sit on such reality shows should ensure that they provide the necessary adjudicating, negotiating and administrating roles that they are expected to perform in regular courtrooms. To this end, concern has been raised over claims that reality TV judges have in many cases been biased in their decisions. This could easily lead the public to develop a negative view of paper issues and get conclusive results. I would also look for a jury that is not prejudiced against whites and that is not prejudiced against alleged misappropriation of funds. ReferenceBell, J. (2003). Legal education. In P. Cane & M.
