reality show to teach and learn about intercultural communication. Qualitative approach is used to help the researcher collect an in-depth

check list of the American cultural values in theoretical background.There are two stages in data analysis procedure: identifying the American cultural values and analysing these values in details. The finding shows that 10 out of 11 values discussed in theoretical background, are revealed in the reality show. Particularly, there are 3 values reflected in the languistic and cultural aspects used by judges including directness and openness, equality of opportunity and informality and 10 values reflected in the languistic and cultural aspects used by contestants consisting of directness and openness, individual freedom, competitiveness, hard work, future orientation, informality, self- reliance, equality of opportunity and practicality and efficency, time and its control.
