Love Island

This is the show for you if you like Survivor and The Bachelor. For the uninitiated, the show basically assembles singles for a tropical island summer! The contestants are enticed to hook up and pair off for the promise of money, romance, and a chance to win the contest. It’s a hoax, according to Reddit. Almost everything in the show is scripted, from the arguments to the intimate scenes. According to reports, the producers go through all of the takes and select the most “realistic” one for the final cut.

Breaking Amish

Unfortunately, Breaking Amish was not as authentic as they made it out to be. Official documents revealed that the Amish people on the show actually defected a long time ago, according to Jezebel. If you believed their claims that they had just left the community for the “first time,” you might be surprised to hear this.
