About this episode

The episode discusses the recent scandals in reality TV and their impact on the genre.

We tune in to our favorite reality shows for the onscreen drama, but lately the scandals have started to spill off the screen and into the real world, from Taylor Frankie Paul to the Bravoverse. This week, VF Contributing Editor Anna Peele joins Rebecca and John to break down this chaotic moment in unscripted television, from the shows that are still on the air decades after they first premiered to the upstarts coming for the crown. Plus, a first look at the Cannes lineup. Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
