To say that reality television is ridiculous is to waste your breath preaching to the choir. Just about everyone would agree with that point. Recently, however, I have noticed that reality television shows have become even more ridiculous than usual. To prove my point, I have written a description of 7 reality shows below. Five of the descriptions are for shows that are in production or have already aired. Two of the descriptions are for fictional shows that I made up. See if you can figure out which of the descriptions are for an actual show.
Show 1
Fifteen women who "party hard" (they party hard but are NOT Flava of Love contestants) are sent to live in a boarding school-like environment where they will learn about self-improvement and female-empowerment to turn from tramps to ladies.
Show 2
Former stars of My Super Sweet Sixteen are sent to live with indigenous tribes in faraway countries.
Show 3
Six prisoners at a minimum security prison agree to be placed in solitary confinement and undergo mental and physical challenges in an attempt to win $150,000.
Show 4
An adopted woman is introduced to eight men who may or may not be her biological father. The girl must correctly choose her father to win a $100,000 prize.
Show 5
Seven celebrities team with seven professional magicians and compete in magical challenges. The winning team wins $100,000.
Show 6
Ten celebrities learn the tricks of the paparazzi trade and attempt to take the best shot each week. The celebrity who survives the competition wins $250,000.
Show 7
A group of men compete for the heart of a woman in a Bachelorette-esque dating show. Unbeknownst to the men, the object of their affections is a post-operative transexual who has only recently become a woman.

#2 and #4 ?
I also say 2 and 4...but I really, really wish 2 was real.
I think 2 and 3. I really hope you made up 3. really.
My guesses are #2 and #7--but judging by the fact that no one else chose #7 yet, I am terrified that this is actually a show people know about already.
