Ditto.
I think a lot of these so-called 'reality shows' these days came about just after the last big actor's strike in Hollyweird. Studios got tired of pandering to their prima dona actors and looked for a new way to avoid dealing with them.
I'm not saying its the only reason, but I'm sure it was high on the minds of a lot of programming execs. Remember too - this was around the time all the cast of Friends banded together and demanded $1 million per episode EACH...or they threatened to walk.
