Which reality shows are the most real




















RHOC returns October 14, and you won't want to miss this first look! Barnes has always been outspoken about the truth behind the show.

Many of the brides have felt duped by the show, such as season two bride Julia Swinton-Williamson, who sued the producers for misleading her about the nature of the show her lawsuit was thrown out in Southern Charm is back!

According to one cast member, Danni Baird , scenes were put into the narrative long before they actually took place in real life. But some former contestants allege that a lot of staging takes place and that producers handpick narratives to get the show viewers —rather than working to grow a fan base for the artists.

To her, it just felt like one of many different hobbies she enjoys. According to Ben Starr, who appeared in season two, participants had to agree to potentially fictionalized and humiliating portrayals of themselves.

Starr also said editors would piece together different sections of dialogue to create statements that were never actually said. It is highly engineered fiction … designed to keep you watching from episode to episode.

I enjoy them too much to worry about a little thing like truth when watching my shows. Did any of your favorite reality TV shows make this list? Thank you for subscribing. Something went wrong.

Whichever way you slice it, River Monsters really is a show to behold. Host Jeremy Wade travels in search of some of the biggest, strongest and deadliest fish in the world, and he tangles with them for real. The esteemed British chef has developed a reputation as a hard taskmaster, who rules his kitchen with an iron fist and unleashes all the fury of Beelzebub on anyone who makes a mistake.

Along with the likes of Big Brother, MythBusters was one of the first shows to really define the reality genre. That was its whole premise, in fact: taking a look at popular scientific misconceptions and the truths behind them. Without getting too philosophical about it, friends, truth and reality should really be one and the same. Naturally, though, the nature of the beast a Big Brother -type affair in which contestants live together in a villa on Mallorca in the hope that romance will bloom has led viewers to question whether the resultant relationships are real or staged.

You have to tell the producers on site if you are planning to have an important chat or do something, so they make sure the microphones pick it up and the cameras get it. A celebrated chef and travel documentarian, Bourdain was serious about his craft. We think Looper put it best:. He was constantly self-deprecating, almost eager to expose the artifice of television at all costs.

Now, this one, we're a little conflicted on. As always, they were hoping for controversial decisions and potential drama. As far as we're concerned, being a police officer is one of the most admirable professions out there.

Still, on they go, performing the most thankless tasks without wanting fanfare or a big fuss. The house-renovating thing has been done hundreds of times in hundreds of ways, but whatever the show, they have a way of hooking us in. In the first season, a ship sank and five people perished. It doesn't get much more real than that. Another show about life on boats—albeit on the complete opposite end of the spectrum from Deadliest Catch —is Below Deck , a show about a luxury yacht crew hosting charters for wealthy jerks.

There are plenty of goofy, obviously-staged situations, but the workplace tension seems genuine. The crew members work long hours, then have to share cramped co-ed living quarters, while grinning and bearing it to appease their charter clients, who in the show's best moments, are unapologetic, pretentious clowns. Fortunately, most of them get really hammered on real alcohol and slur their way into looking like complete morons on television, which is the singular joy and only redeeming quality of the entire show.

Forget Bear Grylls, whose name alone makes you stop and say "No, there's not a chance that's a real person. This guy is like a real life MacGyver minus the mullet. Getting dropped off in the middle of Earth's most remote locations with nothing but his camera gear he shoots the entire show by himself , a sort of utility knife, a satellite phone for emergency calls to a remote crew who are always close enough for a rescue , and the bare minimum of supplies, Stroud must find a way to survive for days at a time.

There are no celebrity cameos, no airlifts to luxury hotels at night, and no drinking his own pee. Give it up, Grylls. You've got Kate Hudson with you. How hard is this possibly going to get? Former chef Anthony Bourdain traveled the world in this incarnation of essentially the same show he'd been doing since No Reservations.

True, the concept is similar to most other travel shows: guy goes to place. Guy observes local traditions.
