UnReal (TV Series)

[chveik]

Has anyone seen this show? It is rather good. Three seasons have already been aired. It follows the story of the producers and crew of a reality TV show (a sort of Bachelor). They try to dramatize it by manipulating the competitors. I never watch reality TV but it's interesting to see how the shows are done behind the scenes (the showrunner of UnReal has worked in the industry for quite a long time). The show is obviously very cynical and it's hard to identify with the characters but the protagonist is quite interesting. She has a lot of mental issues and the show seems to be the only thing that keeps her grounded. In any case the series is not caricatural as you can expect. It's a guilty pleasure for sure, but a pleasant one.
Anyway, if you have nothing better to do, give it a go!
