If you like reality shows like Survivor or Big Brother, could you watch them in a foreign language?

Asked by Zen_Again (9931points) December 30th, 2009

I was just watching the finale of yet another reality show, and thought about this.

There’s no doubt that certain “foreign” films (in quotes because even American films are foreign – outside America) are fantastic and sometimes even require little translation – Fellini comes to mind, or if you like action films, how about Luc Besson?

But Reality? That’s just regular people in extreme (at times) situations. Could you watch it in a foreign language?

Side question: will reality shows stand the test of time?
