The emergence of reality television as a wildly popular form of entertainment has created many new risk assessment concerns for TV networks and production companies. When insufficient screening leads to the hiring of cast or crew members with unsavory legal backgrounds, mental health challenges, or even false identities, the resulting problems can be numerous.
In addition to negative publicity, reduced advertising revenue, and the show’s potential cancellation, networks and production companies may face the risk of litigation. In addition, the growth of the reality TV sector has attracted increased government oversight, making it more important than ever for entertainment companies to ensure the legal integrity of their employment contracts and competition rules.
For these reasons, the enlistment of risk assessment consulting firms has become common among reality TV developers. In many cases, the efforts of risk assessment firms have uncovered criminal histories; falsified ages and educational backgrounds; and previous appearances in salacious or otherwise problematic productions. These matters can easily cause issues in the production of reality television shows.
