“Reality TV is a powerful genre. It has the ability to make you invested in who is going to win the big competition or find true love, or at least a good showmance. It also has the ability to bring people together from all walks of life. We love to hear from viewers who feel inspired and accepted after seeing themselves reflected in our shows. After all, what is reality TV if it doesn’t represent real people?,” Brandon Riegg, VP of Unscripted and Documentary Series for Nettflix said recently.
“Whether you love competition or cooking, dating or decor, style or a social experiment, we might have a show for you — either now or someday soon,” he went on to add.
