Basketball Wives
The reality show follows the lives of women who are married to famous basketball players. However, not everyone has been pleased with their participation in the show. Former cast member Matt Barnes has discussed how scripted and staged the entire show is. Tanya Young has backed up the claims, claiming that the producers set up the drama by pitting the wives against each other.
The Hills
The show featured everything you’d expect from a reality show. On a regular basis, there was backstabbing, teen angst, and relationship drama. The show appears to be extremely scripted. According to Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag, they were asked to shoot one scene fifteen times. It was the part where she thought she was “pregnant,” and he reacted angrily. The show’s producers have since admitted to casting a number of characters, including Lauren’s co-worker’s best friend.
