put it on tv? please give further guidance.If the person is over 18 in tennessee, could their parents setup hidden cameras in a persons room, car,bathrroom etc. and create an entire tv show that the person has NO knowledge of (no knowledge of even being filmed, being on tv or anything) completely based around that one individual (the cameras would switch to wherever he went and even show him alone in his room)without his knowledge or consent?I know they did this with the truman show but that was a movie.Would this show be allowed to air on national tv?I know the parents can setup cameras in their own house, but film their son and put him on national tv?Would the son need to sign a consent form or some sort of contract or anything like that?

What happened is while he was still a minor, the parents signed a contract and put him on national tv without his knowledge.When the minor turned 18, WOULD THE SHOW HAVE TO STOP?Or is there some way around this?As I said, when he was a minor, he had no knowledge his parents signed a contract,no idea he was being filmed, and no idea they were broadcasting it on tv!This sounds like invasion of privacy, is there some way his parents or the prducer could get around this and keep the show on the air, or could a judge order this show off the air since it was being filmed illegally?LAWYERS ADVICE NEEDED
so there is no way around invasion of privacy whatsoever?
