UnREAL has been one of the more interesting shows on television because it exposes the fetid underbelly of reality shows. This one is a show where lots of people sign up hoping to be the one chosen to marry somebody.
Season 3 of UnREAL seems poised to continue the “do anything, no matter how disgusting, to keep ratings up and the show on the air” vibe we’ve seen in past seasons.
The cast includes Shiri Appleby, Constance Zimmer, Brennan Elliott, and Craig Bierko. The show airs on Lifetime. You can get past seasons on DVD from Amazon Video.
I’ve enjoyed past seasons because of great performances from Shiri Appleby and Constance Zimmer, but also because of the way the characters are driven nearly mad by what they are asked to do to keep the show at the top. It’s isn’t pretty.
The shows creators are Marti Noxon and Sarah Gertrude Shapiro.
Are you a fan of UnREAL? How do you think season 3 is going to shape up? The trailer looks on the dark side, as usual.

I loved season one, season two not as interesting, but will still tune in to the new season.
I find it “hard” watching. It’s dark and ugly because it’s showing us the truth behind our entertainment. And the mental health issues that Shiri Appleby’s character has are not fun either. Still, it’s worth watching.
