We enjoy the drama, intrigue, suspense, and voyeurism of reality television, but what do these shows do for the people in them? This podcast explores reality TV in (most) all its forms and analyzes shows to find out what it actually means to put reality on television. Listen in as I over-analyze our favorite shows and expose shows you've never heard of. A podcast for reality tv fans, trivia lovers, television history buffs, sociologists, or anyone that wants to know about that "trash tv" without having to actually watch it.

Scream Queens S2 (2010)

I want to play a game....again!

Scream Queens season 2! How did the show change in it's second and last season? Did Tai truly deserve the villain edit? What would have happened if Gabby went home earlier? Do we actually figure out what a Scream Queen really is?

Check out interviews with the winner, judge and director Tim Sullivan, and with the production team of Joke and Biagio at the Action Flick Chick Website. You can also still read the old blogs on the Joke and Biagio Website!

The Recap Episode
Scream Queens S1 (2008)

I want to play a game....

Scream Queens! That weird reality competition attached to the Saw movies that James Gunn was part of that really just feels like horror-themed ANTM. Come listen to me talk about how this show uses characterization to deliver a storyline for each contestant and how a show like this can do more harm than good for an aspiring actor's career.

The Family (1974)

In this episode, I jump across the pond to cover 1974's The Family, a show following the working-class Wilkins family from Reading in the UK. It has much in common with the show I covered in Ep 1, An American Family, but also so much that is different. Listen and see how things are done in Britain.Follow the pod on Instagram for updates and to see what I'm currently watching: https://www.instagram.com/therecapepisode/

An American Family (1973)

In this first episode, I explore what many consider to be the first reality TV show: An American Family. This show aired in 1973, but so much of it resembles what we have as reality TV today!
