6 reality TV series to make you question humanity

You’ll hate them. Or love them. Or love to hate them.

REALITY TV PRODUCERS in America are looking for the  real life counterparts of the characters from Girls for a new series which will document their lives.

No surprises there, we would never have had The Hills were it not for Laguna Beach, the reality offshoot of The O.C.

Things have come a long way since then though, so we thought it was the perfect time to recap on some of the most ridiculous reality TV series to ever go to air.

Bad Girls Club

Premise:  A group of rebellious women are put in a house together in an experiment intended to moderate their behavior.

Reality:  A group of women with big personalities and anger issues live in a house with loads of booze for a couple of months, fighting ensues.  Lots and lots of fighting.

Mob Wives

Premise: “A docu-soap series that follows the lives of four women at a crossroads, having to pick up the pieces and carry on while their husbands or fathers do time for Mob-related activities.”

Reality:  Carmella Soprano but with less class.

Extreme Couponing
