blueberrybanana 's review for:
Cue the Sun!: The Invention of Reality TV
by Emily Nussbaum
informative
medium-paced
I really liked this! Well researched & well written (I thought the writing style was very approachable), I learned a lot & was entertained along the way. Highlights were the chapters on American Family, Survivor, Big Brother & Bravo. Completely unsurprised to learn that Trump was...the same person & personality he is today. Really bleak
Learning about the behind the scenes of these shows and how they're filmed/edited was fascinating to me, a reality TV noob. Also, as a former stage crew person, I really appreciate that she interviewed crew members and hope they're able to win better working conditions! Only critique is that I thought the later chapters were a little fast and I wanted more from them...I guess a Legendary Children read is in order for me
