How many people in the US have “been on tv”. There Isaacs got in my hometown who’s whole identity is that he was a contestant on a committe cooking show. I’m trying to gauge how common it is for a random person that you might meet at a bar to have been on TV. By this I mean:

  • non actors
  • not the news -not just in the audience

I think that predominantly leaves game show contestants and reality tv show contestants. What do you think?

    I mean I’m clearly in some B-roll for the great food truck race (I think that was the name). I think who you include and exclude in the definition needs work, because I’ve 100% been on tv as a non actor in a non news program, but it’s not like I spoke to a camera or anything that would bring attention to me. (Your general question is very interesting though)
