I accidentally watched about 2 hours of 'The Real World' last night because I was completely hypnotized by the character studies I could preform. You can see exactly how people react to stimuli and the expectations they have. You can understand their rationale for actions and how they approach situations. You can even watch guys hit on chicks and see the results. You can examine different self esteem and self image issues they face and how they or you could overcome them. Try to empathize completely with each character and really think about what they are saying and why. You can look for IOIs and essentially watch real FRs and LRs
