Jumping the shark and downsizing the operation is more realistic.
The movie was before the realityshow boom, the least realistic part is everybody being hooked up in a such static show. They would have tried different things to keep the ratings, actually him being a molester would have given a hike to the ratings, maybe also offering him to join a gang in jail, or giving him missions to kill other people.
Product placement is the least of my worries, give me any product I will shoehorn it in a jail environment.
If the modern Internet has taught me anything, anything can be sponsored and embedded.
Much like today’s jail sponsor NordVPN. Ever feel like you can’t access anything because of where you live? That’s because some sites lock you in. With NordVPN, you can experience the internet the way it was meant to be by forwarding your connection to anywhere in the world. Use code ‘TRUMAN26’ for the first month free.
The Truman Show didn’t have commercial breaks or ad reads. People in his environment may speak highly of a product (sometimes to a suspicious degree), but they only spoke to people inside the simulation. The products had to naturally fit into his environment.
Just like this new double headed toilet brush, the Goug-O-Matic Pro 3000 Plus fits naturally into the male urethra. Look how naturally it slides in and latches on, allowing for one to relieve one’s bladder and clean around the house!
Viewership would probably drop, and the product placement embedded in the show that funded the whole program would be difficult to do in jail.

What I’m saying is that the show would have evolved to do more ads.
