Reality shows are usually pretty obnoxious. They may be about an old out-dated rock star looking for love when really trying to make a comeback or maybe even based on people getting rehab for addictions. Whatever the plot, they are the guilty pleasure of millions of Americans and this fact is backed up with research and ratings.
Mtv started their reality smash, Laguna Beach, almost a whole decade ago. Laguna Beach created the spin off The Hills. These shows have went from pure reality to staged. Even though it has been said that the show is scripted, people cannot seem to turn the channel. I must admit I am guilty of this as well but cannot seem to figure out what is keeping me coming back week after week. Mystery will probably remain.
Vh1 created their Tough Love show three years ago. The show is about women who have troubled love lives due to individual habits that inhibit them from finding true love. These women work with match maker Steve, who gives challenges and therapy to help fix their habits and matches them with compatible men. The third season has a bit of a twist. It deals with COUPLES! It is genius. Tough Love Couples has very valuable lessons about love along with the drama that people can help but watch. This show has made it's way into my top 3 favorite shows right now. I just can't seem to get enough of it!!
For all of you who want to see what all the hype is about check out the Hills Tuesdays at 10 pm on MTV and for Tough Love Couples turn the channel to Vh1 Mondays at 9 pm.
