The problem with reality shows is that, at a certain point, the facade gets ripped off and we notice things like Matt Roloff's megalomania, Mama June's careless parenting, the Duck Dynasty patriarch's prejudices, Kate Gosselin's virulent OCD, and the Duggars' misperception of godliness.
But the people portrayed on the screen were concocted out of scraps of footage by directors, cameramen, and publicity flacks. They were never real.
Reality shows are fiction

Multitudes and Multiples
Nineteen kids. You can bet at least one will turn out gay, one will write a tell-all book, and one will break with family tradition and go to college--a real college, not just a bible institute. Oh, and another one will go bat-crap crazy, leave the clan, and get his/her own TV reality show, Breaking Duggar, so to speak.
And Lord only knows what will happen to the Gosselins.
