‘Duck Dynasty’ revolves around the Robertson family, which makes most of its vast wealth with creative duck hunting products. The show ran for 130 episodes and proved that beards can be extremely entertaining.
However, most of the show’s drama was exaggerated for ratings, and producers often inserted ‘bleeps’ even when the cast wasn’t swearing. The show was actually less vulgar than you’d think… but more fake.
Keeping Up with the Kardashians
Whatever you might think about Kim Kardashian and her family, it’s impossible to ignore the fact that they have managed to make literally billions off their name and likeness by ginning up controversy and getting attention. Their reality show, 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians', has been around since 2007, and it's obviously fake to a very large degree.
It still draws in millions every week though, so apparently, the truth isn’t all that important. Kept up and fake.
WWE Smackdown / Raw
We thought about including this one here just for good measures. While most boys learn by age twelve that wrestling is fake (both in and out of the ring), a handful of them grows up believing these battles to be true.
It’s hard to imagine that some fans still think that you can get smacked in the head by a chair repeatedly and just show up the next week like everything’s fine. Well, it’s not. Definitely fake.
Survivor
'Survivor' might just be the longest-running reality TV show of all time (excluding some like 'Judge Judy'), as it has been running annually for more than two decades. Unfortunately, whether it started in recent years or decades ago, the show has been outed as mostly fake.
Producers have even admitted to using stunt doubles for many of the team’s challenges. Surviving but fake.
The Hills
If you’re looking for a reality show that takes the worst stereotypes about women, from gossiping to backstabbing, and puts them on the forefront, 'The Hills' was made just for you. However, most of these events and dramas are scripted.
Former participant Spencer Pratt revealed that he and Heidi Montag had to re-shoot the scene where they thought she was pregnant fifteen times to make it as dramatic and intense as producers wanted. Intensely fake.
