Dark Side of Reality TV - New series from VICE

[irajaxon]

Hey millennials, are you ready to revisit the trauma you acquired through your teenage tv-viewing habits? Youngins, do you want to understand what we mean when we say the 2000s were absolutely brutal? Curious about who the forefathers of unethical TikTok doctors dispensing irresponsible advice were

this sounds right up my ally, but i didn't watch any of these shows so that kills some of my interest. will probably still check it out tho

i don't watch wrestling or follow comedy closely, but i really enjoyed their "dark side" series on those subjects. it's generally a good documentary series.

same! i give no fucks about wrestling, but i'm perched for the new season. hope they do a dark side of hockey eventually.

YES kid nation. more people need to know about it because it was INSANE and i can't believe it actually happened

The Swan.....what a time to be alive...it's *kind of* funny that Terry Dubrow went from The Swan to RHOC to Botched. Always giving someone a makeover.

But now its just been replaced by IG and all these influencers or celebs documenting their surgeries in their stories (see Tamra Judge)

growing up in the 2000s was insane
like the whole decade was a fever dream

the swan show was awful, and not just because of the content, but because it replaced the tv show wonderfalls after it got cancelled. to go from wonderfalls to the swan.. was brutal.

Wonderfalls was so good. I hate that it only got 13 eps.
