All reality shows about families destroy the families.

How many of these shows that follow a unique family ever end with the family better off or even the same? Sister Wives are leaving, John and Kate crashed, and the Duggars have all kinds of stuff going on. Why do these idiots keep signing up for the nightmare to come?

seems like these had a whole bunch of problems before the reality shows.

I think part of it is that the people who would agree to do this in the first place are out of control attention whores, and another part is that all of them get shows in the first place because they're in extreme circumstances that would've probably destroyed them on their own. TV just accelerated it

Yes they do.
I think it is because it gets other people involved.
Take John and Kate. John was fine with Kate talking to him like an idiot.
But
John was not fine with Kate talking to him like an idiot on TV where everyone he knew was watching.

Not the duck guys.
But for them you have to remember that quote from Phil where he admitted this was like a three or four year cash grab and then he’d go back to obscurity.

I thought about them right after posting. They did pull the plug before the network was ready though so maybe they were starting to see issues too.

They are all fake. The sooner you know that, the sooner you will stop watching reality tV

real chicken or the egg situation here.

that’s because they don’t give normal families shows.
Sister Wives is literally Bigamy.

These parents who have their YouTube channels (a lot of them are Mormons for some reason) that pimp their families out for YouTube fame and money seem sick in the head. The formula seems the same - white soccer mom with three or more kids and a "husband" who likely smoked a pole or two in his younger days.

The dude acting like a complete puss about Covid probably had the most to do with that.

Off topic, but I wonder how many couples break up after the show Alone. Your partner leaves you for a couple of months. There is probably a good bit cheating that happens. Also, they left you to go play wilderness. If they come back without the money I could see a lot of resentment.

Maybe it’s the inevitable result of families that have weird enough shite going on to warrant a reality show?

The Osbournes have stayed together.

He probably still would've grown tired of it eventually. Also they had a ton of kids and without the TV money they would've been really financially stressed which would've led to a different set of marital issues.

Todd and Julie are currently in prison so this one should probably be included.

The families in these shows pitch themselves to networks. They’re inherently fricked in the head and desperately crave the attention. They’re sad, pitiful people. Of course everything goes to shite when that attention is gone.
I know a girl who tried to pitch her family and they’re fairly normal so god knows what kind of made up shite they would have come up with.

Todd's probably having the time of his life in there though. Don't have to hide it in there.

"reality shows" are neither
