Thank you. I think people often think that, you know, if you're studying reality TV, then that's kind of a tacit support of everything that goes on on reality TV when it's just, you know, I'm just looking at the sociological nuances of the genre. And yes, I am a fan, right? I position myself as a fan. I like a lot of these shows, but I also see a lot of these shows as deeply problematic.
