Why do people still watch trashy reality dating shows like Married at First Sight?

[Anonymous]

for example, that Married at first sight show. There’s been so many seasons of that at this point that we know the success rate is very low. So there’s no way anybody goes on that thinking they’re going to find a spouse because like five out of six times they get divorced at the end of the show. So who in their right mind would do that? it’s embarrassing

I love and breathe trash TV during Covid and after Covid. Because it's fun 😄😇

I even like / still like Big Brother. Even the bootleg classics on YouTube and the NSFW versions back in the day. Ah well 😃

I just like the entertainment, escapism, fun.

Other times, local and Hollywood, produce crap that's not fun. No fun at all. 😲

It reflects the mentality of the average TV viewer.

It just goes to show their level of mentality.

Thank you for the MHO.

People don’t watch them for romance, they watch them for drama, psychology, and escapism 😂

The couples are basically characters in a social experiment: messy emotions, bad decisions, awkward fights. It’s like a live-action telenovela.

Contestants usually want fame, followers, or brand deals more than love. Viewers get entertainment and a bit of “at least my life isn’t that chaotic” comfort 😅
