Scripted is definetly different than reality but I think reality shows just consist more of them casting certain times of people for "roles". People know when they are the jock, the *****, the *****, etc. etc. They make themselves fit the bill and the editors cut scenes out that show them doing anything outside of the role that they were cast for.

But you description begs the question: is that reality?

And I ask because there are 100's of shows that do exactly what you say--and bill their selves as "reality" tv.
