How do reality show producers generate drama when shooting a scene?

Richard Hall (Reality TV Producer) gives expert video advice on: Do reality show producers 'coach' cast members during a shoot?; What happens if a cast member has a breakdown during a reality show shoot?; Are reality show storylines written ahead of time? and more...

I think the tried and true classic way to get drama to happen on a show, is to let somebody know what somebody said about them behind their backs. It's classic, it never fails. Anytime you put stress on people to make a decision, where their friendship is tested, where a relationship is tested, or where they have to split allegiances and have to cut somebody in and cut somebody out - that is classic. It always works.
