What is Schadenfreude? How is it relevant to TV shows? Give two examples.

Schadenfreude is the pleasure taken from the suffering or misfortunes of others. Reality TV shows that are based on competition often include roles and characters that win a game or become leaders because they are good at bullying others and take pleasure from others' failures. The TV shows Survivor and Big Brother are showcases for schadenfreude as a common occurrence on TV.
