Has Social Media Ruined Reality TV?

Reminiscing and exploring why reality TV suddenly sucks!!

My first ever experience with the world of reality TV was watching My Super Sweet Sixteen, Pimp My Ride and LA Ink when I was probably only ten years old. Three shows that I would still happily sit and binge endless episodes of because the nostalgia is so comforting. I urge you to reminisce and watch the montage below if you need a little refresher of just how good it really was…

Then I moved onto joining my aunties on the sofa while they religiously watched The Hills. In my pre-teen mind thats what adult life was really going to be like and I was obsessed, Instagram had only just been created and wasn’t really kicking off yet, so it was my first taste into seeing the life of 20-30 somethings. It felt so glamorous and exciting watching all this drama from all the way in LA, worlds away from the living room in Leeds I was sat in.
