    Ngl… I kinda want Fear Factor to come back

  • @ChrisDarnellNZ June 20, 2024

    Where is "The Will"? Watched every episode.

  • @niquiidlewood9326 June 20, 2024

    I'm a kid of the 90s. Jerry Springer was must-see TV. Period….

  • @TravisColinColeman June 20, 2024

    Do not like this closeted vice Andrew. This sucks. Use to like MoJo— mot this Andrew ho’😊

  • @axlsr June 20, 2024

    Holiday in the Protectorate a Czech reality show about living in nazi occupation should have made the list

  • @PhilipLabruyere June 20, 2024

    I need some of these shows back, they were hilarious

  • The Duggars should be on the list.

  • @Phoenix-MX1 June 20, 2024

    I will never understand how the fear factor guy went on to say the dumbest stuff on the internet and contributed to the collapse of society.

  • @quiteknight50 June 20, 2024

    I think I remember the Swan

  • @adamdavidsonx June 20, 2024

    The shows on this list I have seen are Sister Wives, Jerry Springer, and Fear Factor. I stopped watching Sister Wives after they moved to Nevada. Just got too busy to keep up with it at the time. Only seen maybe a dozen Jerry Springer episodes, something I watched only when I could not find anything better to watch. Probably seen half a dozen episodes of Fear Factor cause my ex liked it.

    I had heard the name Honey Boo Boo, but had no idea it was a kid. I have heard of the Kardashians but I can't identify any of them if you showed me their photos. Have no interest in spoiled rich idiots.

  • @Humbledandelion June 20, 2024

    In portugal they cancelled the nanny show after the first episode, the outcry for exposing a child like that was huge.

  • @rebeccahicks2194 June 20, 2024

    Miller commenting negatively on children’s physical appearance yet she’s obese lmfao projecting much?

  • @timhayes120 June 20, 2024

    I loved kid nation honestly. So sad it was cancelled. Fear factor too

  • @mogumogu000 June 20, 2024

    OMG number 15 😂 I am gooped, gagged, and gobsmacked 😂

  • @goingrogue2236 June 20, 2024

    What about Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire?

  • @goingrogue2236 June 20, 2024

    I thought Kid Nation was very good and we honestly could probably lern a lot from the way they did things.

  • @andycain4351 June 20, 2024

    Very suprised to see The Jeremy Kyle Show isnt on this list. I went to a live recording of it and it was like bear baiting.

  • @realitybitesx June 20, 2024

    While dance moms is highly controversial and Abby is many things…. she didnt choreograph the majority of dances on the show. Production picked them and Gia did at least 75% of the choreo.

  • @EmmaAreli June 20, 2024

    But I absolutely loved Fear Factor 😭😭

  • @ForThePeople6 June 20, 2024

    Being mad at “installing beauty standards” at a young age is considered crazy how isn’t installing lgbtq standards at a young age isn’t ?

  • @JT-xp8hx June 20, 2024

    I’m sorry, but this is a terrible list. Fear Factor at #2? Whoever made this list should be fired.

  • @NiKiMa023 June 20, 2024

    I’m surprised Black. White. Don’t end up on this list

  • @LL138TM2723 June 20, 2024

    One of the versions of Moment of Truth resulted in a murder after its first episode, because it revealed that the contestant did not love her long-term partner and had cheated on him by engaging in SW. When he was arrested, he blamed the show, saying that he did it because of how humiliated he was by the whole nation knowing he'd dated a SWer.

  • @oogabooga1023 June 20, 2024

    I really don't hate any of these shows. Reality TV has pushed the boundaries by throwing crap to the wall and seeing what sticks. That's Hollywood for you!

  • @ivargas220iv June 20, 2024

    Fear Factor was awesome.

  • @Edgeof666 June 20, 2024

    ALL reality TV is scripted to one degree or another.

  • @privatenexus5764 June 20, 2024

    17:15 there was a story regarding the reality, but some guy actually shot one of the other guests in the studio carpark. That was ONE case

  • @burnyizland June 20, 2024

    Sally Jesse Rapheal's Gay crush reveal that led to murder better be on here.
    Edited to add: I am disappointed.

  • @CamCam-mq6ji June 20, 2024

    18:00 FFS, just watch the Tribe!

  • @CamCam-mq6ji June 20, 2024

    17:00 jerry springer started as quite good and serious – tweaky Dave's story struck a chord with me

  • @CamCam-mq6ji June 20, 2024

    14:25 didn't transwoman kill herself?

    Also, a transwoman won big brother in 2005 – no one cared. That Miriam show was deceptive and horrible

  • @bupekatongo8176 June 20, 2024

    What about that extreme makeover show??😮

  • @davealvaor June 20, 2024

    Americas culture at its finest

  • @nevenhumphrey1361 June 20, 2024

    Congratulations on putting 'Toddlers & Tiaras', (or as I called it, 'The Paedophile Shopping Network') at #1.

  • @user-po8vd3dy1q June 20, 2024

    I met a guy who I worked with that talked too much, cursed too much and was too negative. Yet I still envied him. Why?
    …Because he didn’t know who the Kardashians were.

  • @user-po8vd3dy1q June 20, 2024

    I wasn’t surprised by any of them, because I new early on that everything on it was reality, except what kept me interested in watching.
