???'s

Have you ever watched MTV’s The Hills?

Considering its popularity more and likely you have. I too have watched the “reality” T.V show. For those of you, who have not experienced The Hills, allow me to summarize it within one phase. It’s about the lives of a few young L.A residents who live the life of the rich and encounter drama along the way. For more information visit the shows website http://www.mtv.com/ontv/dyn/the_hills/series.jhtml.

Just recently, last fall, I became a fan of the show shortly after my roommate forced the “sweet life” upon me. Since then I have continued watching it into its new season which just began on Monday. Although I’m a huge fan, while watching the show I always find myself questioning the truth and images behind it. I often ask myself: “who really lives like that?”, “how are they so rich?”, and “who gets chances like those?”. Questions that I cannot answer and leave me day dreaming. By believing the show represents its characters in their real life, I wonder how much of the show is taped only to increase and keep its audience.
