When the network announced renewal orders for “American Idol,” “Dancing with the Stars” and most of its other reality programs last month, noticeably absent was ”The Bachelor,” its long-running reality dating show, which sees 25 women vying for the heart of a handsome bachelor. That’s because a search was underway for a new executive producer and showrunner following the exit of Claire Freeland and Bennett Graebner, who left in March after accusations of a “toxic” and “hostile” work environment.

On Monday, the network renewed the series for a milestone 30th season and named Scott Teti (“Bachelor in Paradise”) as the show’s new showrunner and executive producer.

If Teti sounds familiar to Bachelor Nation fans, that’s because he was named showrunner and executive producer of “Bachelor in Paradise” in January. He previously worked as an executive producer of ABC’s “Claim to Fame” and Bravo’s “Summer House,” as...

Gold Derby is celebrating its 25th anniversary with our series of "25 in '25" highlighting the best, worst, and weirdest of the 2000s.

At the turn of the century, a new genre of television made its way to the mainstream that was less polished and more accessible than its traditional drama and comedy counterparts. Dubbed "reality TV" because of its focus on everyday people instead of actors, this low-budget, documentary-style format pioneered by shows like The Real World became instantly lucrative for networks. Competition programs like Survivor, American Idol, and The Amazing Race soon dominated the broadcast channels, while unstructured fare like Jersey Shore, The Real Housewives, and The Osbournes took over cable.

Below, relive the 25 best moments in reality TV history from the past 25 years. Our only rule? We're spreading the wealth so that no show gets more than one slot.

Issa Rae is working to spotlight the history of Black television with her upcoming HBO docuseries “Seen & Heard,” which she discussed at length in a keynote conversation at SXSW.

The moderator, Rotten Tomatoes’ Jacqueline Coley, described the first episode of “Seen & Heard” as focusing on how studios in the past “used Black audiences” and then “abandoned them as soon as it was convenient.” Rae said she wanted to dive into that history because “it sounds like a conspiracy” on the surface, but producing the documentary proved to her just how that trend had played out.

“It’s one thing to say it. You might have heard someone say that in the history of television and the history of particular networks,” Rae said. “But to have the actual creators, showrunners and writers chronicle the history of that is undeniable. We wanted to make a comprehensive history and showcase, with evidence,...

“Bachelor in Paradise” sees fan favorites from the franchise return for a second (or third) chance at finding love after leaving their respective seasons brokenhearted. With experience under their figurative belts, participants are given the opportunity to travel to a romantic paradise in the hopes of turning a potential summer fling into the real thing.

Wes Bergmann says he is “begging” The Challenge fans to stop making hurtful remarks about his newer castmates.

The two-time MTV champion and All Stars 3 winner announced his retirement from the show during The Challenge: USA 2 spin-off season.

While that meant he wasn’t part of the epic 40-person cast for MTV’s Season 40, Battle of the Eras, he has since appeared on other reality shows.

He recently shared a message expressing his love and adoration of The Challenge fandom, who constantly root for him to return to the competition series.

However, he said some online comments have become too much as they are “crossing the line” towards “hurting” individuals from other reality shows.

“I want the world to think of The Challenge fandom as three main things: competitive, funny, and good sports. When you trash those from other shows out of a sense of loyalty to me, you’re not doing right by anyone,...

17 years before House of Villains premiered in 2023, Season 2 returnee Tiffany Pollard redefined reality TV as the meme icon, New York in Flavor of Love. At that time, she competed with 19 other women to win the heart of rapper, Flavor Flav. Tiffany was so good on TV that the VH1 show also asked her to return for Season 2. But she wasn't always the Hbic back then.

At the end of Season 1, Tiffany was attacked by another contestant, which disgusted Flav himself. The Brunch with Tiffany star was also unlucky with her on-and-off romance with the Public Enemy member, who dumped her during both seasons. Here's how Tiffany became a victim in her breakout show.

Tiffany New York Pollard was a reality TV icon before reality TV was a worldwide phenomenon. She first appeared on VH1's Flavor of Love in 2006, and is continuing her legacy in season 2 of House of Villains, cementing her place as reality TV royalty.

As soon as Tiffany Pollard appeared looking for love with rapper Flavor Flav on VH1's Flavor of Love, she became an overnight icon. She was confrontational, told people how it was, and had plenty of hilarious opinions. In short: she's reality TV gold. The internet continues to be flooded with memes of her TV appearances and quotes from her shows, including I Love New York and Celebrity Big Brother.

Long before Tiffany Pollard started feuding with Teresa Giudice on E!'s House of Villains, the former was already the "Queen of Reality TV" following her two-season stint as New York on Flavor of Love in 2006. At that time, she competed with 19 other women for the heart of rapper, Flavor Flav, whom she dated on-and-off. Tiffany also received her dating spin-off, I Love New York (2007-2008).

Known for her loud and Hbic personality making her a meme staple over the years it's no wonder House of Villains asked Tiffany to return for Season 2. But during a 2023 appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, it seemed like the host didn't understand the reality star's vivacity... Fans then accused Andy of giving "hater energy."

In the modern world, the top reality shows can be affected by how media has changed over the last several years. For example, Jeff Probst revealed how the official Survivor podcast changed the show and Nicole Byer used social media to call out Netflix for how the producers handled issues on Nailed It! On top of that, reality show fans also use social media to speak out about things like the biggest problem with The Traitors and how Phaedra Parks treated Dan Gheesling.

Another way that social media is affecting reality TV is several celebrities who became famous online are getting their own shows. Following in the footsteps of the cast of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, The Montana Boyz are making the leap from TikTok to their own reality show.

Like her Villains comeback, Tiffany also returned for season 2 of the VH1 dating show, only to get dumped twice on TV by the music prodigy.

The queen of reality TV never held a grudge against the founding member of Public Enemy, who has also been personally sponsoring the US Women's Water Polo Team. It has something to do with the way Tiffany's career wentfrom her 2007 spin-off, I Love New York to her timeless meme-worthy lines and explosive on-screen feuds.
