Arranged Marriage Reality TV - HBO Now Casting Volunteers

We’ve pretty much seen everything there is to see when it comes to reality television. We’ve witnessed extreme examples of what people will do for money and what people will do for love. But what about what people will do for the opportunity to find a lifelong mate? HBO and Lifetime Television are now looking to cast four people to be in their newest reality television show called ”Arranged Marriage”. The concept is that arranged marriage has a success rate of 85% and the producers hope to test out that success rate with the four participants on the show. The chosen four will have to marry a complete stranger chosen for them by family and friends and the cameras will document the making of the marriage and how a lifelong bond forms between two strangers. It’s an interesting opportunity but maybe reality television has gone a little too far.

I loved HBO's "Tell Me You Love Me". I hope this reality show has the typical HBO quality. I don't personally think its too far of a concept. Many people get married after knowing eachother a short period of time, so maybe with the family/friends participation, they end up with a better fit than they would on their own.

It's interesting that HBO are doing a show on Arranged Marriages, since it is something that is now changing where it is practiced most i.e. in places like India! Trends are that orthodox arranged marriages are becoming more diluted into introductions with more freedom than in the past. Especially when it comes to making decisions. More on this trend change and in-depth look at Love Marriages versus Arranged Marriages is in the DESIblitz.com article: http://www.desiblitz.com/content/love-marriages-better-than-arranged Let's hope the HBO programme uses the right ingredients to make this a success!
