-Big Brother: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/big_brother/This show also brings in 13 different people but this show is a competition where all the house guests try to be the last person in the house to win $100,000. The general audience for this show suits all ages.

Everyone knows this show, one lucky man or woman is picked to find his/her soul mate! This show is most likely directed towards older audiences.
-America's Next Top Model: http://www.cwtv.com/shows/americas-next-top-model
This show selects 13 wanna-be models as the fight each other to be the next "top model". This show is suited for all ages.
The Biggest Loser: http://www.nbc.com/the-biggest-loser/
This show is all about shedding the pounds. Competitors compete with each other to try to lose the most weight of everyone their. This is also a family show.

This shows are all similar in the fact that they are all reality TV shows. Out of all the shows I listed though, I feel The Truman Show is most like Big Brother because like Truman's show, big brother is always watching. The Truman Show is also very different from the shows I listed too because for one, his show isn't a competition and second, all the people on these TV shows know that they are on TV. Truman did not. Like The Truman Show everyone who watches these reality shows watch them the same reason why the people in the movie watch his show, its fun and entertaining and a glimpse into someone else's life.
