The very first season of Survivor was the first. I also tuned in regularly to a reality show in NYC and how a young Italian American chef (Rocco?) got funding for his restaurant, and the operation of the business for the first few months. The interviews with staff were enlightening.

I tried watching The Voice, but I hated the segments about training the singers, etc. I didn't like rehashing of old favorites, and most of the time I wouldn't pay to see any of them.
