Real Reality Shows



You've all heard or watched reality television shows such as Survivor, The Apprentice, Jersey Shore, Dancing with The Stars, etc.  The list is endless...I am about to share with you some of the more obscure reality TV shows.

These are all currently on air in the U.S. on independent stations or cable networks.  They don't get the high profiles of some of the bigger network shows, but they have each carved out their niche following.

Bad Girls Club (Oxygen)
A reality show that follows seven self-described 'bad girls' as they are forced to live together in a house in LA.

Ghost Adventures (Travel Channel)
Three ghost hunters Zak Bagans, Nick Groff, and Aaron Goodwin set out in search of spirits while armed with nightvision cameras and digital recorders on this paranormal show

Breakout Kings (A&E)
This show is about a selected group of criminals transferred from prison to join an exclusive team to help the U.S. Marshal  catch fugitives. Each member of the team has a special trait that helps them find the fugitives. They each still have to stay in jail when they are not being used but it is a minimum security prison, instead of the maximum prison they were each transferred from

Man Vs. Wild (Discovery)
Bear Grylls travels around the globe to find the most dangerous tourist locations and environments, in order to show us how to survive in them.

Scare Tactics (SyFy)
You will get to see what scares the living daylights out of average citizens just like you.  The series puts a new spin on the hidden camera idea by featuring pranks inspired by science-fiction and horror films

Hoarding: Buried Alive (TLC)
Goes into homes cluttered and packed by people who are obsessed with saving items in large quantities that most people would discard in the trash.

This list of show is by no means exhaustive.  Just goes to show that almost anything can become a reality show today and generate a following.  And here in Canada, we have the ultimate reality TV show 24/7--found only on The Rotisserie Channel!
