    what the hell happened to reality tv?
    Hey everyone welcome back to my channel! It’s been a minute since I did a “where the hell are they now” video and while I was thinking of a topic for one, I realized reality tv might be an interesting choice! I know it’s slightly different from previous videos in the series because I usually choose social media groups or collectives like Magcon or Team 10 but I thought since the changes of reality tv in the past few years have been so dramatic because of social media that it could be fun to look into. I’m sure at this point you’ve probably come across either an influencer on a reality show like Love Island or Temptation Island, or you’ve seen one completely dedicated to an influencer like Tana’s MTV web series Tana Unfiltered or Nikita Dragun’s Snapchat series... Nikita Unfiltered (lol) either way I think it’s safe to say influencers have been taking of the reality tv world.. but I don’t know if that’s for the better of shows or worse.
    SO for today’s video I wanted to try and answer a question I’ve been asking myself for the past few years, “what the hell happened to reality tv,” because I don’t know if it’s just me but I feel like reality tv has really lost the spark that gave it so much popularity in the first place. We’ll look at some of the new influencer shows, influencers joining traditional series and also some new shows beyond influencers that in my opinion still just aren’t the same as the old stuff even though they’re checking off every box and on paper are technically “wilder.”
    I know I always say this lol but im suPER curious to know what you guys think about this one especially because my opinion and experience with current reality shows is just my own. So if you’re willing, let me know what you think about the new shows these days and if they're still interesting or exciting for you, if they’ve fallen off in your opinion or you just were never into them to begin with.
    anyways i hope you guys enjoy the video! if you want you can like and subscribe which really helps out the channel and turn on post notifications to be notified every time i upload, but otherwise thanks again for watching- see you in the comment section! :)

      my favourite tv show is wie is de mol and now i think of it.... thats technically a reality show. however i think i enjoy it for a few reasons- and im not one for reality tv (never liked the bachelor)- its pretty fun anyways (and they make it so viewers can play along and guess who the mol is- ive only done it twice), its pretty dramaless (i watch the dutch one so i think that helps- american shows and even australian (im aussie) love their drama ) and most people are pretty humble when they get kicked off. furthermore it's not the same every episode, they do different things and they love throwing in twists and the like (s18 ep1 is a good example of this). its also a competition show so i think that helps

      @nightmarepinster9713 3 ปีที่แล้ว +149

      Yes! Thank you. I can't believe I had to scroll so far to see this comment. I think the reason early reality TV was so good was because there were no rules. Those people were starved, emotionally manipulated, psychological tortured, and more. I think about a video I saw of a contestant talking about their time on survivor I think and she said she stripped down naked and did sexually promiscuous things with another woman on camera because she hadn't had food in days and was desperate. Absolutely insane what those producers got away with.

    I love Rupaul's Drag Race, but I think the main reality show that has stayed interesting and consistent is the Real Housewives franchise. It feels like there is less of a focus on getting famous or becoming an influencer since the main focus of the show is older, extremely wealthy women. There is the occasional actor who wants to stay relevant and be in the limelight again but it doesn't really mess with the feel of the show.

    This is why I miss Bad Girl’s Club. Most of the women on the show legitimately didn’t care how they were perceived and just acted however they wanted to in the moment. Up until the last few seasons, that worked out really well.

    I’ve only seen like half of the first season of The Circle (I don’t really care for dating shows and I don’t have cable lmao) but I think the reason why I liked it was because 1. They’re very upfront about the social media/popularity/influencer part of the show so it makes sense that people who have a following would go on, but that doesn’t necessarily translate into likeability in the circle and 2. The isolation part of the show is hitting different during this panoramic 😅😂

    Back when I was a high school student in the late 00’s I considered myself something of a connoisseur of wild, “trashy” reality TV. And I mean the worse it got the more I loved it. Some favorites of mine included Paris Hilton’s My New BFF, Daisy of Love, and Charm School. I think shows like this were really a product of their time for a few reasons.
    First of all, back then everyone who was going on these shows was doing it hoping to get famous. This was before social media became what it is today. Now it’s easy enough to just gain a following from the comfort of your home that people aren’t as keen to go nuts on TV for fame. Why go on television and make a fool of yourself when you can just upload something to TikTok or Instagram?
    I agree that people also can’t act as problematic on TV anymore without garnering more criticism, but I actually think it goes even deeper than that. I think as an audience people tend to be more empathetic now, and things that used to be utilized for laughs would probably not get the same reactions now.
