I find that a lot of writers get caught up in justifying why the show would be entertaining, or giving too much supporting evidence trying to convince the producer its a hot subject, when all the producer really wants to read is what is happening in the show. Tell them what they are watching, and how it potentially unfolds. Writing reality formats can be very dry compared to scripted or other narrative genres. You're trying to set up a circumstance or scenario that is unique, and provide clear illustrations of what is happening in each episode.

Those are hard to find in treatment form, but you want to detail your presentation in a similar way to other concepts. The Logline should illustrate the unique subject or focus of the series, and any specific agenda or event involved. The synopsis should pitch details on how the subject, venue, and/or person is compelling, but more importantly- what we are potentially watching in the series.
