Throughout the week, she eliminates men until she finds her dream guy. "5 Guys a Week," a UK series, features a single woman who invites five men to live in her house for a week in the hopes of finding love. Why we hate it: It's hard to take the show seriously, as you're distracted from getting to know the contestants when all you can focus on is their physical appearance – the irony. ![]() It also reminds us of the movie "Halloweentown" and the approaching spooky season. Why we love it: The concept of finding love based on personality alone is appealing. ![]() Think "The Masked Singer," but for dating. "Sexy Beasts" is a bizarre show that aims to tackle superficial dating by having contestants use animal prosthetics and costumes to hide their appearance, and have their personality be the key to finding love. 'Bachelor' fans call for plus-size casting: 'Fat people deserve a chance to find love' 16. It also frames concepts of chivalry and gentlemanliness as something one person can't achieve while dating in the 21st century – which is only true if you believe that. Why we hate it: The show doesn't allow contestants to truly be themselves when they're in the fake Regency era. Why we love it: "The Courtship" is whimsical, fun and unique as far as new dating shows go. And while it's not meant to be funny, some of the dates are pure comedy. The show also wasn't loved by NBC viewers: It was canceled after two weeks, moved to USA Network and streaming on Peacock. Setting this apart from "The Bachelorette," the show takes place in the English countryside, as everyone dresses and acts straight out of "Bridgerton" – an attempt to leave modern dating in the past.

There's so much to choose from, but we've watched them all so you don't have to. But we're still tuning in to the fantasy. Watchers of reality TV dating shows know there is a problem: They tweet about it every week, and petition for change. The crème de la crème for problematic consumers. Great stuff.Reality TV dating shows offer the perfect escape when you ignore their fatal flaw: the seeming inability to produce lasting love.įrom "Love Is Blind" to "The Bachelor," the genre faces issues from racism to fatphobia to ableism, and yet viewers can't seem to get enough. (Just watching one of the shows, right now. Its hilarious every time the guys refer to the decision they say: "Its SOOO hard!". That someone else gets to do a show they would love to be on. So maybe this really deserves at least an 8. But this show has real people, with real bodies, and could be very interesting to those who do not know what NORMAL people's bodies look like. Of course in movies, there are ways around it, like Angie Dickinson, who had a body double, in a shower scene, or CGI, as in "the shaming" in "Game of Thrones". are not the most "beautiful" out there, but then again, THOSE people would not want you to see them naked on national TV, unless they were acting, and the role required nudity. is that understandably the people taking part. The only negative thing I feel about this show, hence "only" 7/10 from me. That is a bonus many of us would love to have. but imagine being able to SEE the body of the person before you commit. Something not all of us have the privilege to do without all sorts of costs and complications. Secondly, it is incredibly educational, so people can see how others are nude. I could NOT do it, because I am too shy, and self conscious. First! Can you IMAGINE the COURAGE it takes to appear on national TV nude!!! I have nothing but RESPECT for the people taking part in this show. Its a show where a contestant gets to see naked parts of other people, and slowly eliminates those he or she does not feel attracted to, hoping to end with someone he feels totally attracted to, naked. ![]()
