The Saragossa Manuscript
ordered on impulse from netflix, it turned out to be an incredible experience and a big surprise. i only looked it up afterwards.
The film was released in Poland [1965] uncut at 182 minutes, but it was shortened for release in the U.S. and UK at 147 minutes and 125 minutes, respectively. During the 1990s Jerry Garcia, together with Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola, financed a restoration and subtitling of an uncut print of the film. The restored film, re-released in 2001, is commercially available in VHS and DVD formats.
Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, Luis Buñuel, David Lynch, Lars von Trier, Harvey Keitel and Jerry Garcia have at various times described The Saragossa Manuscript as their favorite film. The film won the Golden Wolf at the 1965 Bucharest Film Festival.

History
the 40's-50's - of the shows listed, only allen funt's ambush comedy project candid camera fit my definition
the 60's-70's - Seven Up!, Warhol films, An American Family - good examples
Chuck Barris: The Dating Game, The Newlywed Game, and The Gong Show - only the gong show counts. this is an exception to my game shows dont count rule.
the 80's-90's - COPS, The Real World, Americas Funniest Home Videos - prime examples
"...the producers of The Real World have stated that their direct inspiration was An American Family."
the 2000's - of all listed only: Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County.
Documentary Style
Special Living Environment and Celebs dont count except anna nicole smith and the osbornes, also the one with flav a flav. sorry rev run, no go.
Occupational is close to Instructional. none listed count. see below.
Competitive and Game Shows dont count
Dating, Job Search, Sports dont count
Self Improvement/Makeovers dont count
Renovation - AH HA!!! i will broaden this to instructional, which begins with wgbh's 1963-73 the french chef. Russell Morash worked with julia childe and went on to produce the victory garden (1975-present) and this old house (1979-present) also for wgbh boston. this is the core of instructional or how-to reality tv.
Social, Dating, Talk, Hidden Camera (as here defined), Supernatural, Hoaxes - dont count
Prior elements in popular culture - good examples provided
also informing reality tv is documentary film (predating 1900 to present) and its subset cinema verite. both support my interpretation of good rtv.

things looking worse at the oil spill in the gulf
*"Methane is about 40% of the total volume of hydrocarbons that was flowing from the well - which is why it is more accurate to call it a 'hydrocarbon stream' rather than an 'oil leak"
