Hi all,

The Simple Life, The Osbournes, Newly Weds - who likes celebrity docu-soaps? why do you like them? the stars featured? finding out how celebrities act in 'real life'? quality television?

Hello everyone,

For a third year university media and cultural studies project I am studying the appeal of celebrities and docu-soaps. As part of this project I would like to hear what you have to say. So I would be very grateful if you could discuss some of the following points...thanks very much. if you don't have anything constructive to say, don't bother. i know i'm a media studies student, it's hilarious, your condescending comments really impress me. anyway, anyone who is willing to help it would be sincerely appreciated. thanks

1.Give the following celebrity docusoaps marks out of 5 (5 being the highest)

-The Osbournes
-The Simple Life: Interns
-Tommy Lee Goes to College
-Newly Weds
-Hogan Knows Best
(feel free to name any other celebirty docu-soaps which deserve a mention)

2.With regard to the programme to which you gave the best rating, why do you think you like it...
-Main character(s) is/are humourous
-Main character(s) is/are down to earth
-Main character(s) is glamourous
-You can relate to the Main character(s)
-Other......................................
(please pick one or more point)


3.Do you think whether or not the star of a celebrity docu-soap deserves their fame is important to a show? Yes/No

4.Does this fact make it more entertaining?



Thanks very much for your time - there will be more questions to come depending on the success of these.

MOD NOTE:
Just a note to say that I've merged the 3 topics regarding celebrity Docu-soaps that were in the requests forum. Hopefully that nicely tidies things and doesn't confuse too much.

In regards to celebrity docu-soaps, I would answer the questions however as I don't watch 'celebrity docu-soaps' I don't really have any opinions on the matter.
