14 Gimmicky Reality Shows

Upcoming ‘The Wanted Life’ reality show will be snippets of British boy band The Wanted’s "crazy, insane boy band life" (as Jay stated in an interview). As its title suggests, the Wanted’s show will get up close and personal with the lives of The Wanted members, as well as showcase a lifestyle that is expected to be the envy of boys. The party and drama-filled episodes may become a ritual for the artists’ loyal fans, but could be very irrelevant to others who could care less about the lives of celebrities.

On the other hand, shows with unconventional themes (even with no celebrity factor) may also be worth watching. ‘I Hit It With My Axe’ is an online reality show about female adult movie stars playing nerdy board games. ‘Get to Work’ is about the lives of unemployed Americans and is unscripted.
