1. People do NOT like like being talked at. They do NOT like sitting and listening to someone else explain details or relate stories. People do NOT like being lectured.
2. People DO like eavesdropping on other people's conversations. People DO like being sneaky little voyeurs and spying on others and hearing stories that were not necessarily intended for them. Somehow, we are hardwired to find this behavior acceptable, or even fun. Perhaps it has to do with the herd mentality, or social survival skills necessary to survive as part of a group.
Therefore, The talk show format was born. Instead of having celebrities talk directly to the camera, they respond to an interviewer. This makes the experience of hearing the story to be much more enjoyable and fun.
