The popularity of reality television means that producers are looking for more "everyday" people for other shows, said Paul Booth of London casting agency The Casting Suite.

Sure, "everyday," like all the people you see out there at the mall -- rude, uncouth, not very bright and certainly not well educated, loud, unmannerly, self-centered, attention-getting couch pototatos, at or under the country's median age of 35.3.

Everyday folks. Because we just can't get enough of them in real life.

Both will do, but "everyday" was already in quotes. :P

And SC's summation forgot to mention that these "everyday" folks carefully erase the actor/model designation from their business cards!




And, you know, I wouldn't mind if they conducted business this way on their "unscripted" "reality" shows, if only this attitude hadn't spread to the APs at SyndieBAM. :|
