Close on the heels of our discussion about irresponsible reality, here is news worth our attention. Simon Fuller, the creator of âAmerican Idol,â is developing a new reality show that will unfold on the Internet in real time.
This interesting venture, called âIf I Can Dream,â follows the lives of five aspiring actors and musicians who move to Hollywood in search of stardom. Their daily activities will be shown live on a Web site, IfICanDream.com, and they will communicate with viewers via blog posts and social networks.
Will this show, which is expected to start in February on Hulu and other Web sites, be a trend setter in the field of reality show media? Will this show reveal us the importance of web as a medium for reality shows?
