Reality TV - appreciating others?

Recently I saw an ad for a new reality show called Car Warriors, and something hit me. Reality TV can be somewhat exploitative, but perhaps there’s also a positive societal shift and lessons involved too. When you think about some of them such as Car Warriors, Auction Hunters, Pawn Stars, Gold Rush, etc, I also see people being featured doing what they do best, and others of us can appreciate their skill and knowledge. Perhaps this is an example of us as a society valuing the talent of others. Something our television is giving us the opportunity to do.
