RUNNING HEAD: SCRIPTED STEREOTYPES IN REALITY TV Scripted Stereotypes In Reality TV Paulette S. Strauss Pace University SCRIPTED STEREOTYPES IN REALITY TV 1 Abstract Diversity, or lack thereof, has always been an issue in both television and film for years. But another great issue that ties in with the lack of diversity is misrepresentation, or a substantial presence of stereotypes in media. While stereotypes often are commonplace in scripted television and film, the possibility of stereotypes appearing in a program that claims to be based on reality seems unfitting. It is commonly known that reality television is not completely “unscripted” and is actually molded by producers and editors. While reality television should not consist of stereotypes, they have curiously made their way onto the screen and into our homes. Through content analysis this thesis focuses on Latina/Hispanic-American and Asian-American contestants on ABCs’ The Bachelor and whether they present stereotypes typically found in ​ ​ scripted programming.

ABSTRACT For decades African-American women and Latinas have lamented the abundance of negative and unrealistic images of them reflected on television. Such images appear to be pervasive today on reality television shows, the most popular television show genre, where many historic negative stereotypes of women of color are conveyed. Social television, the practice of watching television and simultaneously commenting on social media, is now common among viewers. The aim of this research is to determine if the same old stereotypes of women of color on television are finding their way to the new medium of Twitter. This study is a textual analysis of tweets from viewers who watched episodes of seasons one and three one of the Vh1 reality show Basketball Wives LA and the WE TV reality program Mary Mary. Both shows feature women of color in the cast. This study found that the social television conversation among viewers of these shows detected racial and gendered stereotypes.

One particular accessory is making a splash both in men’s and women’s fashion. The hat, has been an ac- cessory for centuries, and it is making a comeback like Tiger woods...ok, not a good analogy. Making a comeback like Michael Jordan, there that’s better. So get out your grandfathers felt bowler hat or pick up your new fedora at the mall as soon as possible. I would leave the viking hat at home, but pretty much anything goes to keep your noggin warm and styled. In my personal opinion, the current style is not very original and went from one extreme of the bold mismatched colors that just “go,” to muted boring tones.
