The First Reality TV Shows
The infomercial and especially the long format infomercial has taken Television by storm. Whether it is the Christian Children's Fund of Canada extolling donations on behalf of poverty stricken children of the world or Ron Popeil convincing balding men to spray paint on their heads, the influence and success of this sometimes surrealistic form of advertising is significant. There are many profits to be made, but as usual a diversified ad strategy is the best way to survive.

As people's habits became more traceable due to the telephone, enterprising investors have spent money to figure out what we do, when and why. By having information on human activity, targeting TV ads to a specific audience has become a science. Even though television has expanded its boundaries with cable and satellite over the last 20 years the power of production still lies in the hands of a small group, limiting style in the process and keeping a lid on competition. The homogenization of the television audience has turned rebellious rock songs of the 60's and 70's into nostalgia massaging car ads.

Even though there are allot of paid cable and satellite connections television still has an aura of being free. The greatest influence on your children before they go off to school is television, and they will probably be watching TV from their hospital bed when they are 80.
