Abstract
This article is based on a three-year-long content analysis of the use of reality TV content on the front pages of four popular video streaming services in Denmark: DRTV, TV 2 Play, Viaplay, and Netflix. The results give rare insights into front pages that are normally hidden behind logins but also longitudinal perspectives about the services’ changing curation practices. In particular, the two institutions with public-service obligations, DR and TV 2, have VOD services that showcase reality content more prominently than the two commercial competitors in this study. These findings point to how the reality genre’s role has changed over the years, since DR and TV 2 now embrace reality content in a strategy to offer ‘Danish content’ that stands out from what their foreign competitors offer.
本文基于一项长达三年的内容分析，分析了丹麦四家流行视频流媒体服务公司头版对真人秀内容的使用情况：DRTV、TV 2 Play、Viaplay 和 Netflix。研究结果为我们提供了罕见的洞察力，使我们了解到通常隐藏在登录页面之后的头版内容，同时也为我们提供了纵向视角，使我们了解到这些服务不断变化的策划实践。尤其是 DR 和 TV 2 这两家承担公共服务义务的机构，其 VOD 服务比本研究中的两家商业竞争者更突出地展示了真人秀内容。这些研究结果表明，现实题材的角色在过去几年中发生了变化，因为 DR 和 TV 2 现在将现实题材内容作为提供 "丹麦内容 "的战略，在其外国竞争对手提供的内容中脱颖而出。
