My Kid's A Star
''My Kid's a Star'' is an Australian reality/talent show program based on the American series ''I Know My Kid's a Star''. Hosted by Cameron Daddo, it started airing during prime time on the Nine Network from 9 April 2008 in a 60-minute format. Due to low ratings, it later moved to a weekend timeslot, where it aired in a 30-minute format. The show follows 10 child performers and their parents on a six-week talent boot camp that will see one of the performers leave with $50,000 and the title of "child star". The young performers will be judged by a three-member panel which includes former ''The Partridge Family'' actor Danny Bonaduce, who was also the host in the original American version. The show has raised some controversy for focusing on the antics of the stage parents rather than the young performers, and promos of the show prominently featured this aspect of the program. Some of the parents of the contestants have claimed that Nine misled them over the content of the show. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Reality Television
Reality television is a genre of television programming that documents purportedly unscripted real-life situations, often starring unfamiliar people rather than professional actors. Reality television emerged as a distinct genre in the early 1990s with shows such as ''The Real World'', then achieved prominence in the early 2000s with the success of the series '' Survivor'', '' Idols'', and '' Big Brother'', all of which became global franchises. Reality television shows tend to be interspersed with "confessionals", short interview segments in which cast members reflect on or provide context for the events being depicted on-screen; this is most commonly seen in American reality television. Competition-based reality shows typically feature gradual elimination of participants, either by a panel of judges, by the viewership of the show, or by the contestants themselves. Documentaries, television news, sports television, talk shows, and traditional game shows are generally not clas ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
