By Alannah Dragonetti

Franklin Lakes, New Jersey has served as the beautiful backdrop for  high-profile reality television shows, including MTV's My Super Sweet 16 and Bravo's The Real Housewives of New Jersey. For years, the Borough’s real family-friendly atmosphere, stellar school system and other assets have been overshadowed by the genre’s carefully constructed “reality”.
