Hi,
Since the only two shows you mention that I've ever seen are "Millionaire" and "Jeopardy", I can't really claim to understand your references. But I do get the gist, so thank you. Sounds like "reality TV" is Hollywood's final admission that they've run out of creativity and originality and all they have left is what anyone can see on a downtown street corner any night of the week.
Oh, well. Considering that Shakespeare was a one time phenomenon, and that his total lifetime output was about enough to fuel one prime time show for about two seasons, it's amazing that TV survived this long. All that's left, it seems like, are pointless athletic contests and The World Poker Tour :)
