Most TV shows are staged. They are not real.
'Reality' shows aren't real either.
They are heavily scripted and cut.
So I don't feel anything while watching them.
I know it's not real.
When the TV news comes on with stories happening to people, like a building fire or a flood or whatever, then yes I feel for those people. But TV shows like Maury or Dance Moms or CSI or whatever ??? Nope.

Well...of course TV shows are staged...they have actors, directors, scripts...
the ancients would disagree with you; look into The Mystery Play ,and I mean the pre-xtian version, which googles truth algorithm seems to have pushed to back of the line in favor of the medieval ones.

What I'm saying is that because I know they are fake, I don't feel 'empathy'.
But the human tragedy stories in the news are real, and thus I feel the empathy.
