Call them trashy or senseless, but there’s no denying that a major portion of viewers loves reality shows on a worldwide scale. Their makers do not give a damn about the critics. They only care about their die-hard fanbase. And a fair share of people loves them more than their dear lives.
Reality shows are known to bestow entertainment to their fans in different ways. Right? So, are you looking to binge-watch some exciting reality content? Here are the top 5 reality shows on OTT in 2021!
5. The Circle
Streaming platform: Netflix
This one works like a unique blend of Big Brother and Catfish. And we mean it in the best possible way. Its record-breaking success has forced the makers to renew it for two more seasons. The show’s format places a bunch of players in different apartments within the same building. They can’t have face-to-face communications. Instead, they get an app that allows them to present themselves in whatever manner they like. It means they can change anything about their real identity. Their average rating decides if they will become “influencers” or find themselves on the verge of elimination.
4. Cooking With Paris
Streaming Platform: Netflix
Despite being hailed as one of the biggest controversial queens in Hollwyood, Paris Hilton’s popularity is still intact among her diehard fan following. Her name is enough to attract a large audience. The same has happened with Cooking With Paris. This Netflix’s reality cooking show has a not-so-talented American personality as the host with not-so-talented celebrities as guests. Still, it is one of the most-watched reality shows on the streaming platform this year. Watch it only if you are a Paris Hilton person!
3. LOL: Hasse Toh Phasse
Streaming Platform: Amazon Prime Video
LOL has become the top comedy reality show on Amazon Prime Video. It has been adapted according to the viewers of different nations like Australia, Germany, Italy, Spain, Brazil, Mexico, and many more. Its Indian version is known as Hasse Toh Phasse. The iconic duo of Arshad Warsi and Boman Irani hosted its first season with various TV and stand-up comedians. Ten comedians are stocked inside a single room here. They all have the daunting task of not breaking down in laughter while other contestants try to make them laugh by any tactic. The second laugh means elimination here.
2. Too Hot To Handle
Streaming Platform: Netflix
Are you fed up with short-term relationships? Has the right person become a complete myth for you? Then wait no more and enjoy this reality dating game show on Netflix. All the contestants here are placed inside a beautiful house for four weeks. All kinds of sexual acts are forbidden here. Participants must compete in several challenges to earn the $100,000 grand prize. But any case of law-breaking curtails the winning amount.
1. Bigg Boss OTT
Streaming Platform: Voot
With Karan Johar as the host, Bigg Boss OTT generated sensational viewing numbers for Voot during its run in August this year. It allowed Viacom India to go bolder and crazier than its televised version. A total of 13 contestants were placed inside the gorgeous BB house for 42 days. Divya Agarwal emerged as the winner of Season 1. On the other hand, Nishant Bhat was the runner-up for this one.
