How can I pitch a reality show about my job, family or life?
Something I hear all the time is, "Where I work, it's a reality show! You should just put some cameras in here." Or, "At my car wash, we've got some characters in here. They're funny, and we've got this one guy..." I hear that all the time. Although it's true that there are workplace shows, like American Chopper and some others that are true comedic or compelling workplaces - and this is not to say that you may not actually be in one of those places that really could be a reality show - but most workplaces and most people are not funny or compelling enough to be on television. The funniest people you know are probably not funny enough to be on reality television.
