Nathan For You

Nathan Fielder is the only continuously planned character, according to Fielder and the creators of Nathan for You, yet he also routinely improvises owing to the unpredictable nature of the series. Everything about the show is true – even Fielder admits that he is portraying an exaggerated version of himself because he has struggled with social anxiety for years. Their reactions to Nathan’s strange statements are quite real, which is what makes the show so amusing.

First 48

The first 48 is a heavily edited show. There isn’t a single scripted scene on The First 48. Another factor that contributes to its appeal is the absence of a script. As a result, First 48 is a true reality show in every meaning of the word. Unlike other so-called reality shows that are now airing.
