The way television content is consumed has undergone a dramatic shift, impacting not only viewing habits but also family dynamics. The television viewing culture in recent times is different from what it used to be back in the day. In the 1990s and early 2000s, one of the major ways families bonded aside from meal time was TV time. Everyone in the family gathered in front of the TV to watch movies they either rented or bought from the DVD store or the ones that aired on free-to-air channels. Things are much different now, with lots of information and content available at the fingertips, allowing the freedom to form various interests. This shift has diversified interests but also reduced traditional family bonding time.However, one piece of content that has proven to bring families together, strengthen bonds, and bring back family TV time is reality shows. These shows act as a mirror to society. They often portray situations that resonate with viewers and provide entertainment based on real-life experiences. For instance, a music talent show like Nigerian Idol highlights the pursuit of dreams and the importance of hard work and perseverance. The contestants' journey, filled with challenges and triumphs, often mirrors the personal stories of the viewers, fostering a sense of connection and empathy. Families also get to bond over their shared love for music.Similarly, reality shows like Big Brother Naija, a social experiment where strangers live together under one roof, delve into the complexities of human relationships and social dynamics. The conflicts, friendships, and alliances formed within the show often reflect viewers' real-life interactions, sparking discussions and debates within families. These discussions can lead to a deeper understanding of each other’s perspectives and values, thereby strengthening familial bonds.Game shows like Come Play Naija, a light-hearted and entertaining game show, and Indomie Love Bowl game show, a Mummy and Me competition that tests the bond between mother and child encourage families to connect through laughter and friendly competition. These Africa Magic shows provide enjoyable and engaging content that brings families together in a fun and interactive way.As a family-oriented pay-TV provider, GOtv recognises the power of reality TV in bringing families together. By offering a variety of reality shows that cater to different interests and age groups, GOtv enables families to find common ground, discover new interests together, and create lasting memories through shared viewing experiences, reviving the tradition of family TV time in today’s digital age.
