A family named Hughes had agreed to participate in a reality program, because they said that there was nothing to fear. They were monitored 24 hours, in 100 days and nights. The only privacy they had was in the bathroom. The program was called Hughes’ day-to-day life. You see them from slumping on the sofa to big arguments with their teenage daughter. They are a family of six people, who haven’t changed their behavior just because some cameras had come up in their home, except the father who is now wearing sleepwear. They think it’s a good idea, which they can pass on to their great great-family, who they might not meet. The program’s director said that the Hughes was the perfect family for his program; they were a good picture of how life is like the day today. The program was created 25 years before Big Brothers, so it’s an old reality program.
