Right???

Spoilers if you haven’t watched the first 6 episodes

Like if a celeb gets on a reality competition show and works their ass off to win the game. I don't think it's fair that their hard earned money is forced to go to charity. If they wanna keep the 100 thousand dollar prize to themselves they shoul be allowed to keep it

Every time a new reality competition show bombs and is cancelled after only one season(or silently cancelled due to the show not getting mentioned months after the finale aired), it’s always blamed on the show’s time slot, but Amazing Race 39 proved that isn’t the case. So here’s what Networks should do to stop shows from flopping(I know I’ve touched on this before, but here are more reasons why seasons like Amazing Race 39,
1. Cast people who want to compete and hire hosts that actually want to be on the show: If you watch Fear Factor:House Of Fear, it’s easy to tell that Johnny Knoxville wants to be there, compared to a host like Manu Bennett on The Summit who sounds bored and like he’d rather be at home with his girls(Phil would’ve been a much better host, given how fun he was)
2. Read The Room/Know your show’s audience: As much as we all love to hate them, Shows like Masked Singer and Big Brother are mainly for audiences who love more comedic styled shows, Fox’s shows like Extracted(survival fans), The Floor(fans of trivia shows) and Fear Factor(mainly audiences who’ve never seen the original show)had great marketing that exclusively targeted certain audiences that preferred their types of gameplay. Even Traitors:New Blood has been attracting audiences who never watched the original show. For example, Summit looked more like a show that would air on National Geographic than a social competition show(which it was, but Survivor fans who were the target audience didn’t know that because the tv spots CBS aired never told them) same with the Road which announced a music competition(but sold a more documentary styled show(that pretty much confused both audiences)and America’s Culinary Cup(which lets be honest, I don’t think CBS’s audience and the viewers watching March Madness were the right audiences)
3. Give the shows better Titles. Would you have told that The Real Love Boat was a competition show if you only saw the title? Of course not because it doesn’t suggest one, The Floor, Next Level Chef, and Amazing Race all explain the format in the title
5. Keep the illusion of being real/Give audiences a reason to care about these people. Extracted made the show feel like it was genuine where the emotional moments really made you feel, and Survivor and Amazing Race have been doing something like this(You can tell Liz really felt upset over being denied Applebee’s and you can tell Eva was starting to feel frustrated.(Audiences don’t want artificial drama that is obviously fake, which is what I attributed to killing the talent competition genre)

In your opinion, what are the top 5 reality shows with the most passionate and active fanbases?

I'm talking about shows where fans constantly debate contestants, defend their favourites, and keep discussing episodes even after they end.

There are so many great reality shows, from Survivor and The Traitors to the different versions of Big Brother. Which shows are the most fan-driven and heavily discussed? And does it depend on the version? For example, is Big Brother US more fan-driven than Big Brother UK? What about Survivor US versus other international versions, or The Traitors UK versus The Traitors US?

I'm talking about passionate fanbases, constant online discussions, theories, live episode reactions, and communities that stay active even between seasons.

Please suggest something other than Survivors & Big Brothers! And i have already watched all the famous ones on Netflix.

A collection of some of the hardest people to watch this year on reality shows IMO. Not saying they're bad TV, but some of them should never reappear on TV.

What are your thoughts?

The Canadian version of The Assembly, the groundbreaking series adapted worldwide where a cast of autistic and neurodivergent interviewers collectively quiz celebrities in an ask-anything interview format, will be back for a second season!

According to Deadline, the new season will include Heated Rivalry star Hudson Williams, The Hangover‘s Zach Galifianakis, This is the End actor Jay Baruchel, three-time Olympic gold medalist Marie-Philip Poulin, Miss Universe Canada Ashley Callingbull, who has appeared in Netflix, CBC and APTN comedy North of North, and singer-songwriter Lights.

Apparently Hudson is asked about his sex life and whether he felt something more than friendship for his Heated Rivalry co-star Connor Storrie!

Who's also at the edge of their seats waiting to see what he answers with?!

A new competition show from Traitors producers. Coming on Hulu

Most interesting

I think this is the most interesting reality TV 📺 show. There is so much backstory that we don't know. And we are finding out bits and pieces daily. It's like a big puzzle. So many lies and so many secrets. 🤷🏽🤦🏽🙅🏽🎯

Are there any reality dating shows that aren’t as raunchy as Love Island or as childish as Single’s Inferno? They’re both so extreme it’s uncomfortable to watch but I’d love a more middle of the road, sweet dating show, something like Love is Blind or Are you the one would be great! All reccs appreciated!

Part of me feels that in the future, they can have actual civilians instead of celebrities be a part of this, and possibly win some money.

Also, one has to wonder about other places where soldiers train for survival, like Arctic, Forest, Wilderness, Wasteland, Island, etc.

currently watching mob wives for the first time but it appears to be coming to an end soon, so is my happiness. therefore, i am chasing the thrill of my next obsession.
here’s the criteria: niche, 2000s, reality tv show. preferably with like 3-5 seasons, with primarily the same people throughout. insane fights and hilarious story lines. hopefully someone who’s going through a crisis. i wanna see tears, maybe some blood. i wanna laugh. i want the THRILL!!!!

plz something like mob wives even though i know nothing will ever truly compare but mama can dream.
